I am a therapist and mediator licensed to practice clinical social work in New York and New Jersey. I specialize in treating borderline personality disorder (BPD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based approaches. My style is structured, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, with a focus on practical skills and behavior change.
I often assign between-session practice to support skill development outside of therapy. I work from a feminist perspective and provide affirming care for queer, kinky, ethically non-monogamous people. My goal is to help clients reduce distress and live more stable, values-aligned lives.
Please reach out via phone, email, or my website to schedule a free, 15-minute consultation call/video chat. I'll want to discuss insurance/fees, scheduling, your treatment goals, and questions you have for me.
