My aim is to create a caring therapeutic relationship with you that is founded in empathy, trust, and respect. Together we will create a safe and open environment for brave and insightful explorations. I offer collaborative, client-centered therapy that supports the development of personal insights and practical coping skills through curiosity, mindfulness, and compassion. My approach is holistic, trauma informed, and relational and informed by a variety of clinical perspectives including psychodynamic theory, attachment theory, somatic practices, and mindful self-compassion.
I will support you in developing a deeper understanding and acceptance of yourself and your ability to be present with uncomfortable emotions as the foundation to changing your life in the ways that are important to you.
Feel free to text my office at 917-426-1521 if you'd like to get started or have questions. If using insurance, please note that Expansive Therapy is out of network, and we do all the leg work for you - check your benefits, submit claims for you, advocate for higher reimbursement, and deal with any issues with your insurance company directly.
