To help clients successfully manage the difficult challenges of anxiety and depression, I first develop therapeutic relationships characterized by empathy, unconditional emotional support, and authenticity. It is these fundamental aspects of the therapeutic alliance, more than specific interventions, that account for successful psychotherapy. Lastly, I am a Licensed and Board-Certified Clinical Psychologist, a Fellow of the American Academy of Clinical Psychology, and a certified school psychologist. I was educated at Georgia State University (BS), Harvard University (Ed.M.), and the Derner Institute at Adelphi University (Ph.D.).

I believe everyone can benefit from talking to someone. We intuitively seek support when faced with a stressful time or transition. Sometimes we feel stuck or think we should handle things on our own. You do not have to face a difficult time alone. I can assist you in transforming this time into an opportunity to learn something new about yourself, reveal your strengths and consider alternative perspectives. My job is to help you put your thoughts and feelings into words. I welcome the chance to partner with you on your journey,

I love it when people figure out how to feel better. When they master harnessing their emotions, and their lives change and shift in better ways. I get excited when my clients discover that they can master a problem and it encourages them to continue to work on their self growth. And when they recognize that they have capabilities and strengths that they have been overlooking. Then, they see how they can use their strengths to improve their relationships, they recognize and grow their resilience, and they discover that they can solve their own problems almost all of the time.

I work with both individuals and couples who are longing for deeper connection, healing, and understanding. Relationships can be hard, especially when old hurts or well-worn patterns keep showing up. If you and your partner find yourselves stuck in cycles of conflict, distance, or misunderstanding, I want you to know you’re not alone. Often, partners bring different attachment styles into a relationship. One may lean in, pushing for closeness, resolution, or reassurance, while the other pulls away, hoping to calm things down or avoid making it worse. Over time, this pattern creates further disconnection, distrust, and distress.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating the challenges of reproductive and perinatal mental health. Whether you’re undergoing fertility treatments such as egg freezing, IUI, IVF, or third-party reproduction, coping with pregnancy loss or TFMR, or adjusting to the transition into parenthood, these experiences can feel overwhelming and isolating. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can process your emotions, strengthen your relationships, and find a greater sense of balance and connection.

It can feel like you’re stuck in a loop, facing the same frustrations in your relationships or a heavy cloud of anxiety no matter how hard you try to "think positive." You might cycle between anxious and avoidant patterns, where the very walls you built for self-protection now leave you feeling lonely. I offer a deeper approach. Instead of just swapping out thoughts, we look at the whole picture of who you are. By understanding the long-standing parts of your character, we don’t just put a bandage on the problem—we dismantle outdated defenses to create a foundation for lasting internal change and authentic connection.
