I’d love to help you two strengthen your bond. I specialize in working with couples who are ready to invest in their future—whether that means building mutual confidence, deepening your connection, or navigating major life transitions together.
I am a womanist art therapist who supports clients in exploring their stories through creative expression. My approach encourages growth, self-awareness, and healing in relation to culture, identity, and the systems that shape our lives. I work from a strength based, culturally responisve lens, holding space for individuals adn communities to be seen, heard, and affirmed. Through the creative process, I help clients navigate life transitions, trauma, anxiety, and identity development while fostering resilience and collective care.
As a licensed mental health and addiction professional I work within humanistic and person-centered perspectives; valuing and respecting the voices and experiences of my clients are paramount to healing and effective treatment. I support evidence-based approaches that match the therapeutic needs of my clients and assist them in creating safe space for self-reflection, insight and introspection. In summary each person has their life narrative that requires self-examination to foster or enhance growth and development. Let's explore you needs and concerns together in a safe and welcoming space.
I believe therapy is a safe place in which we can be heard, supported, and understood. Together, we will work to uncover your strengths and find new ways to approach life's challenges.
I am a licensed therapist with experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both school-based and clinical settings. I specialize in working across all age groups and take pride in my ability to meet clients where they are, developmentally and emotionally.
My background has allowed me to support individuals through a wide range of challenges, including grief, depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. I have particular strength in building genuine, trusting relationships, helping people feel comfortable, understood, and supported as they navigate the challenges.
I also work closely with adults who are navigating different phases of life, whether that involves processing loss, managing stress, or working through relationship difficulties.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while remaining flexible to meet each client’s unique needs. I strive to create a space where clients feel safe to be themselves, explore their experiences, and develop the tools needed to create meaningful and lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in New York
Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
