Are you struggling with rumination, obsessive thinking, or overwhelming anxiety? Are your intense emotions and impulsive behaviors in the driver's seat? Not sure how to describe what's going on, but feel you're ready to change? I'm passionate about getting evidence-based psychotherapy to my clients in a way that's timely, identity-affirming, and culturally sensitive. I work with those struggling with anxiety, depression, insomnia, and obsessive compulsive disorder. I also provide comprehensive support to individuals struggling with self-harm, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, and emotion dysregulation.

Before beginning my clinical training, I earned a master's in science journalism at New York University. My reporting illuminated the impact of chronic pain, reproductive health, and climate change on mental health. My work is deeply informed by my own prior experience as a therapy client seeking treatment for OCD.

I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) by Behavioral Tech, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) by TICTI, DBT-Sleep by Honest Sleep, and skilled in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). I know firsthand how hard it can be for clients to find the treatment they need. But together we can build a life worth living.
