I have extensive experience working with adults.
I am here to bring support to those who are in need of a safe, sound space. From physical health to emotional and spiritual wellness and balance, I act as a ‘soundboard’, a ‘guide’, an ‘advocate’ and experienced Integrative Psychotherapist to bring you a clear and peaceful path of healing, balance and growth. If you’re struggling with disordered eating patterns, anxiety and/or day to day stressors or if you’re feeling good and want a space ‘to call your own’, where you can think, talk and gain feedback, please reach out. Therapy is a wonderful tool for all matters and I provide a virtual space where you can explore and process.

My experience has involved working with diverse populations of adolescents and adults seeking support on a spectrum of issues including depression, anxiety, stress, and improving self-esteem and body-image issues. I appreciate the different ways people express their needs, and how important healthy communication and connection are for navigating any challenge in life. Motivating others and providing the needed emotional support to empower individuals inspires my current approach to therapy.

I have experience working with adults facing a range of difficulties.
I offer video appointments for adults located anywhere in New York State. Whether you've done psychotherapy in the past or this is your first time looking, psychotherapy can be a rewarding experience. We might know what we'd like to change, and other times this might be less clear even though we want something different. Wherever you are on this continuum, I hope I can be of help to you in your search for change. Generally speaking, my style incorporates your talents, abilities, strengths, values, and creative interests - the elements that make you unique and that are not captured by a psychiatric diagnosis - in our work.

I have experience working with individuals from young to older adults with a myriad of concerns.
Life can feel overwhelming at times. Some might find it difficult to find the emotional courage to seek psychotherapy when you are already dealing with a quagmire of complex competing loyalties, identities, and personal and political conflicts. Whether you are dealing with the stress of racial identity, cultural integration, concerns related to fertility, substance abuse, or transitions throughout the life cycle, this process does not have to be an isolative experience. Carrying around those frustrations with nowhere to process them can further exacerbate difficulties in daily activities.

You may feel alone, anxious, disengaged, and searching for meaningful connections or a sense of balance. You would like to engage in therapy but often say “I have no time for that- I’m too busy…” Maybe your anxious feelings and difficulties within relationships are connected to the fact that you are always busy and unable to make time for yourself. I provide virtual psychotherapy sessions in both English and Spanish.

My clients come from all walks of life. They may be struggling with work, school, family, relationships, or simply the everyday trials and tribulations. They may know exactly what is triggering them and what they need help with or they may have no idea. For the most part they are folks who recognize they need some help and are looking for someone to go with them on their journey.
