Sometimes your usual ways of coping with stress and difficult situations stop working. This can leave you feeling ill-equipped to manage aspects of your life. As a result, you may be feeling sad, worried, scared, angry, and/or overwhelmed. I strive to help people better understand the nature of their problems and develop more effective ways to cope with them. I believe greater self-awareness, in combination with behavior changes, can lead to a richer and more satisfying life.

Welcome to Manhattan Mental Health Counseling. Here we value your decision to courageously seek help towards healing and thriving. We believe that if you take the step towards treatment, then as healers, we have the responsibility to make sure you are well cared for.

I am a Clinical Psychology Postdoctoral Fellow who is well-trained, thoughtful, and deeply compassionate. I provide individual, couples, family, and group psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with an array of challenges from relationship conflicts to anxiety and depression. As a mother of two, I resonate with the joys and struggles of the journey to becoming a parent, and am keenly interested in supporting you through perinatal and parenting challenges. I use an integrative therapeutic approach, including evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness.

As social beings, our relationships with others, the world, & ourselves are what give our lives meaning. When we feel disconnected from these parts, we're wired to feel absolute despair. Though powerful, I'm confident that this uniquely human sort of suffering can be disarmed by discovering connection & purpose in our lives- & I seek to help you develop the tools you need to do so. I'm passionate about helping people navigate trauma, addiction, anxiety, relationship turmoil, LGBTQIA+ identity, & self-esteem, among other issues. I blend insight-driven “talk therapy” with mindfulness & emotional regulation practices.

I address problems with a focus on results, not intentions. Resolve that if what you're doing isn't working, you'll be willing to change it. Do you want to live purposefully, or will you continue complaining about what you don't have? While I work with past issues, I'll help you live in the now in a purposeful and rewarding present onto a satisfying future. Resolve that you'll no longer allow your choices to cause you pain and fear rather than peace and joy. If you can say "I'm sick of this. I am ready" then give me a call.

At some point, each of us confronts a difficult life circumstance for which we may want or need extra support. Whether you are experiencing relationship difficulties, increased stress, or the desire to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, I hope to help you navigate these challenges with greater ease and confidence.

Do you feel discouraged with daily difficulties? Having trouble navigating what others believe "should be easy?" I believe through a Positive approach, we can uncover some previously unexplored options. I work to match the counseling approach to the individual’s needs, strengths, and styles to address identified therapeutic focus. By tackling faulty thinking, undesirable feelings, and outgrown coping mechanisms you’re able to effectively address the Here and Now.

Whether you need support dealing with a current situation or want to address a longstanding issue, I can help. Many of my clients enter therapy to work through depression and anxiety related to struggles with relationships, identity, loss and trauma.

By increasing awareness of their strengths and where they get stuck, clients gain clarity and insight into new solutions. Therapy with me provides lasting benefits: real change, peace of mind and new skills to take into the future.

I believe that psychotherapy is like getting a college degree in knowing yourself. The more aware we are of our motives, feelings, thoughts, actions & perceptions the less we are controlled by them & less likely to be stuck in old patterns that no longer work. I have helped many competent, intelligent men and women who wanted more out of life than financial success. They often would describe having a sense of feeling empty or not gratified. The process of psychotherapy facilitates increased self-awareness thereby increasing your ability to identify and follow your desires, which leads to fulfillment.
