I have 25 yrs of experience in a variety of settings including emergency rooms, medical units, long-term care facilities & inpatient mental health units. I have provided hands-on case management, crisis intervention, discharge planning and end-of-life support as well as lead teams in those settings. My goal is to identify client's challenges that cause pain, sadness, frustration, anger and even confusion and help them move forward in living their lives to their fullest potential.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist based in New York, working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and questions of meaning.My clinical training includes CBT, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based approaches, along with certification in psychedelic-assisted therapy through CIIS and MAPS.

My approach to care is patient-centered, evidence-based, and collaborative. I believe in building trusting relationships with patients, families, and caregivers while creating individualized treatment plans that address both mental and physical health needs. I am experienced in managing conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, schizophrenia, mood disorders, behavioral disorders, and other complex psychiatric conditions.

I also bring valuable experience working with children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, developmental, and academic challenges.

I work closely with parents, guardians, schools, therapists, and pediatric providers to create comprehensive treatment plans that support emotional growth, school success, and family functioning.

I am skilled in assessing cognitive decline and managing behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia such as agitation, aggression, anxiety, depression, sleep disturbance, and psychosis, while promoting dignity, safety, and quality of life. I collaborate closely with families, caregivers, nursing staff, and interdisciplinary teams to develop supportive care plans and provide education regarding disease progression, behavioral strategies, and medication options.

I believe that one of the bravest and most meaningful steps a person can take is beginning to understand their own story. My approach to therapy is holistic, recognizing the interconnected nature of emotional, mental, and personal well-being.
