Therapist

I help people navigating life transitions and relationship difficulties to set boundaries and communicate their needs and wants in a way that creates the best outcomes for them and their loved ones, but some might also say that I make exploring your hard truths and expressing your vulnerabilities fun. Working together we will use evidence-based, systemic models, humor, empathy, and the occasional f-bomb to explore the parts of your life that you’re looking to change, shift the beliefs that are keeping you stuck, create connection, and let go of the parts of your life that no longer serve you in a healthy way.

For couples working with me, you can expect all of the above plus a reworking of the common ways you respond to one another in order to help make difficult conversations easier and for both of you to get more understanding, validation, empathy and teamwork and less battling, confusion, and resentment when it comes to the issues you face together.

Therapist

Are you feeling overwhelmed or disconnected from the people and things you care about? It can be difficult to know where to begin when you're facing changes or persistent challenges. My role is to meet you exactly where you are, whether you are facing grief and loss, relationship conflict, professional stress, or a major life transition. These hardships often bring about cycles of anxiety and depression. Life transitions can be overwhelming. I’m an LCSW, here to walk alongside you as you break through limiting beliefs and move toward a more expansive self. I also have a deep passion for supporting the creative community—understanding the specific emotional highs and lows that come with being an artist, performer, or creative.

I am a trauma informed clinician with training in CBT and DBT. I work from a strengths based perspective with children, adolescents, and their families as well as adults and couples to help navigate the complexity of relationships and day to day stressors. I run several groups including social skill building groups for children who have diagnoses including 2e, Anxiety, ADHD, ODD, and ASD, parent support groups, and DBT skill building groups.


I have worked in residential and school settings as well as in criminal justice. I also the parent of an elementary age child who is always teaching me things and helps me see things from a child's perspective.


It can be very difficult to trust someone especially a stranger and telling your story multiple times. Asking for help is not always easy and scheduling can be challenging. Currently I see adult clients remotely and some children outdoors in Prospect Park.
