I believe in the inherent wisdom of the body and incorporate emotional and somatic awareness into my holistic practice. By listening to the body, we can navigate past traumas and painful experiences together. Additionally, I explore issues within the broader context of an individual's life, showing curiosity about diversity factors such as gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, ability, religion, spirituality, and community.
Expect me to be warm, genuine, curious, and compassionate. I aim to offer an inclusive, affirming, and empowering space and therapy sessions that are inviting, relational, and collaborative. I work from an empathic and curious stance, believing in your resilience and recognizing your unique story.
Feel free to text my office at 917-426-1521 if you'd like to get started or have questions. If using insurance, my office manager is happy to check your benefits for you and lay out a fee structure. We also submit all claims for you and advocate for higher reimbursement rates on your behalf. We work with PPO and POS plans with out of network benefits.
