I provide tele-therapy services in MD, DC, VA, NY, Fl, DE, VT, & WV. It is my belief and practice that we are more than our limited thinking minds. If you have tried other traditional therapies and find them lacking, you may find my Transpersonal , Jungian, and Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral approach to be of benefit. The transpersonal is defined as "experiences in which the sense of identity, or self, extends beyond the individual or personal to encompass greater meaning. This can include exploring non ordinary states of consciousness.

You are burnt out and hurting from our world. Maybe you’re LGBTQ+, Jewish, or holding multiple identities that feel vulnerable and lonely right now. Maybe you're a parent who loves fiercely and wants desperately to get it right, but the world feels scarier and more complicated than you know how to navigate alone. Maybe your relationship is struggling, but you need affirming care to feel ready to tend it. If you’re a sensitive soul exhausted by the political noise, the overstimulation, the grief of it all, I see you, and honestly, same. I’d love to help you restore and reclaim the joy, rest, creativity, and hope you’ve been missing.

Are you tired of fighting with your partner constantly without finding a path to move forward? Are you from a culture that's different from your partner's culture? Have you experienced a relationship crisis? Your relationship does not have to suffer through those conflicts in the dark, nor does it have to be a battleground for your differences; it can be a rich soil for meeting your unmet needs. Therapy is the right place for you and your partner to explore complex emotions. If you are not sure what you are experiencing, therapy also allows you to get closer to the unknown.

My ideal clients often feel like they're carrying more than they let others see. Beneath the surface, they're navigating anxiety, stress, anger, low self-worth, or major life changes while trying to keep everything together. They're looking for a space where they can better understand themselves, heal old patterns, and move forward with greater confidence and emotional balance.

As someone who has sat on both sides of the therapist’s office, I deeply believe that healing is possible for everyone. I view the main vehicle for this change as connection: with me, with yourself, with your body, with others in your life, with your environment, and with broader social movements and communities. As your therapist, I will invest in building a safe and trustworthy relationship over time, through curiosity, authenticity, and transparency. It’s important to me to understand and address how power, oppression, and your multifaceted identities influence your life, as none of us heal in a vacuum.
