I'm a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in private practice, where I work with children, adults, and families to navigate life’s most meaningful (and challenging) moments. Whether you're facing a transition, parenting stress, emotional overwhelm, or relationship struggles, I provide a warm, collaborative space to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and begin the process of change. I offer both in-person sessions in Westchester and virtual therapy across New York State.

Are you a woman or a couple struggling with the deep impact of trauma, anxiety, or relationship stress? Do you hear that voice saying, "I'm not good enough; I don’t deserve happiness"? I want you to know those ingrained beliefs aren't facts! They are coping mechanisms that are now keeping you stuck. They're often just patterns learned in old relationships. I help women and couples move past old habits towards safe attachment and acceptance within. You have untapped inner strengths, and you absolutely can go from just coping to thriving and living a full-hearted life.

Welcome- I am so glad you're here! As a clinical social worker, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals across the lifespan navigate life's challenges and work toward improved well-being. It would be my honor to help you along your journey too.

Whether it be anxiety, self-esteem concerns, interpersonal conflicts, or life transitions, therapy can help. My goal is to help you address the things that are holding you back from being your truest self and living the life you dream of.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NY. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Ithaca College, and then my Master of Social Work from Binghamton University. I have experience working in college counseling, hospital settings, and non-profits.

It is my goal to empower individuals to recognize and embrace the strengths that live within them. I utilize evidence-based techniques to aid individuals with living a life filled with healthy relationships, self-confidence, and joy. I provide clients with strategies to combat life stressors, anxiety and depression.

Early in my career, I had the opportunity to work in community-based settings where I learned the skills to help clients overcome fixed mindsets and develop healthy behaviors to succeed both emotionally and socially.

Later in my career, I led new mom’s support groups to help mothers navigate this unique time of life in a supportive and non-judgmental community. I currently specialize in working with maternal mental health where I aid mothers in exploring many topics including a mother’s new normal, changing relationships with her partner, the baby blues as well as postpartum depression/ anxiety/ OCD, adjusting to returning to work, introducing a new sibling to the family, navigating new dynamics with older children and much more.

As a psychotherapist, I have had the privilege to work with individuals who are brave enough to openly discuss difficult life transitions and learn the tools to deal with them. It is truly inspiring to witness the tenacity of individuals who take the time to be the best they can be.

I believe my intuition and good listening skills as well as authentic ability to hold a non-judgmental space for clients are where my strengths lie. It is in this environment that clients have the chance to tell their story and learn how to realize their healthiest self. Once people are given the opportunity to express themselves with a caring and supportive therapist, change can lead to revelations that can lead to renewal.
