You carry a lot, and you carry it well — so well that most people have no idea just how much you’re holding inside. Beneath the surface is a deep emotional world and quiet endurance of someone who keeps going, even when it’s hard. Maybe you feel lost, unsure what to do with downtime, or stuck in dating that never quite works. You might hide the struggle through scrolling, drinks, or perfectionism — because you’ve mastered the mask. But something’s got to give. You're no longer seeking quick fixes. You want to understand the why beneath your struggles and create grounded, lasting change in how you feel, relate, and live.
I am a University of Pennsylvania–trained psychotherapist licensed in CT and NY. Using psychodynamic, relational, and evidence-based approaches, I specialize in working with teens and young adults facing challenges like burnout, perfectionism, identity confusion, social and dating anxiety, post-college drift, shame, trauma, and disconnection.
This isn’t surface-level coping skills therapy. This is for people who want real change, internal clarity, and a stronger connection to who they actually are. If you’ve been silently struggling or looking for a therapist who truly gets it, we might be a good fit. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation call to take the next step in your healing.
