If anxiety, OCD, or self-doubt have been running the show, therapy can help you reclaim your life. I specialize in treating anxiety and mood related disorders, including social anxiety, illness anxiety, panic, and depression. Together, we'll work to reduce the grip of fear and uncertainty so you can focus on what matters most. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based. I'll help you build practical tools to manage anxiety, face challenges with confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change. You don't have to navigate this alone. A more fulfilling life is possible
For nearly a decade, I have had the privilege of helping individuals and families create meaningful, lasting change. Trained in adult and child psychotherapy at Columbia University, I provide a warm, supportive space where you can learn practical tools to overcome anxiety, break free from unwanted patterns, and build a life guided by your values not fear
Above all, my focus is on your journey, strengths, and goals. Therapy is not just about reducing symptoms, but about helping you reconnect with yourself and live more fully. Together, we’ll take things step by step, creating space for healing, growth, and lasting change. Let’s start with a free consultation and explore how we can work together.
