I am a limited-permit psychologist who works with adolescents and adults navigating a wide range of challenges, with particular expertise in trauma recovery and women’s health. I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology and completed my APA-accredited internship at Allegheny Health Network, where I received specialized training in treating both post-traumatic stress disorder and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.

I’ve provided therapy in diverse settings, including Bellevue Hospital, the Brooklyn VA’s Military Sexual Trauma Clinic, Ramapo College’s counseling center, and the Parnes Clinic. In my work, I integrate psychodynamic principles with skills-based strategies to create a treatment approach that is flexible and responsive to each client's unique needs.

I work with clients who feel stuck, beset with painful emotions, or unsure why certain patterns continue to repeat. In the beginning, we'll take time to get to know one another, build a sense of safety, and clarify what you're hoping to change. From there, therapy becomes a space to explore how your past is shaping your present and to begin breaking free from old patterns that no longer serve you.

Types of Therapy

Integrative
Psychodynamic
Relational
Trauma Focused

My approach is rooted in relational psychodynamic therapy, where we work together to understand your story and what's keeping you stuck. I also work through a trauma-informed lens that values your autonomy in the therapy space. This style emphasizes the co-creation of a warm and secure environment to explore your inner world, make sense of the past, and foster meaningful change.
