Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who received all of my educational and professional experience in New York City, I truly enjoy working with woman of all ages as their navigate their journey as women in today's society. I like to be supportive, caring, and compassionate.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapy style is generally casual. I am direct while being warm and caring. I provide a safe space where people can be open and honest without fear of judgment.

What you can expect from our first session
