I provide an engaging and supportive environment to help you know yourself better and build lasting skills to cope during life's challenges. I work with adults, adolescents, and parent/child. We will work together towards a healthier and happier way of being. In our psychotherapy sessions, I consider our relationship to be an important aspect in our work. I include aspects of art therapy and psychoanalysis and find that a psychodynamic approach has a lasting affect on mood, relationships, behaviors and patterns. I can creatively encourage ways to help you express and untangle your concerns, as well as, bring about change.

I’m a holistic psychotherapist trained to provide high quality, compassionate support to children, teens, and young adults navigating challenges of anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress, self esteem, and disordered eating. I have a particular passion for serving the LGBTQ+ community and work from a gender- and sexuality-affirming perspective. My experience in a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Mindfulness, allows me to tailor my therapeutic approach to your unique goals and needs.

Hi, everyone! I recognize that mental health is much more than what's happening mentally, but also deals with issues of physical health, social and environmental factors, and relationships. I'm culturally competent in several areas such as race, sexuality, gender identity, religion, and disability and have specialization in working with autistic individuals, individuals with ADHD, and children.

Being vulnerable, feeling safe, laughing, and pushing past the distress are just a few of the moments that are shared in the therapeutic relationship journey. I often work with individuals, children, families and couples who feel lost and hopeless after experiencing trauma or feeling stuck by perpetuating issues. At times, experiences that we go through may also lead to anxiety, depression, and feeling lost for how to move forward. I work with individuals to help identify ways to have these "rocks" removed and develop plans that could be accessed outside of our therapy sessions.

I am a New York State licensed and board-certified creative art therapist providing treatment for young people and adults. My approach is strength based, client centered and deeply grounded in the restorative power of the creative process. A strong therapeutic alliance fostered through trust, understanding and collaboration is essential in cultivating positive change. I deeply value the use of art making to facilitate authentic self-expression, increase self-awareness, and promote self-acceptance. “Art is a way of recognizing oneself...” -Louise Bourgeois

Wherever you are in your life’s journey, you don’t have to go through it alone. It can be challenging to understand why we are going through a difficulty in our life, but more importantly, it can be difficult to identify our own needs during these times. As a trained Art Therapist, I utilize talk therapy along with creative self-expression. I work from an intersectional and social justice framework, and as a female therapist of color I am committed to validating personal experiences and intersections of identity including race, ethnicity, and gender.

I work with individuals in a supportive and creative environment to open dialogue and explore life's challenges. The opportunity to engage in verbal or non-verbal expression can support to reframe the past, their thoughts, emotions, life patterns, and to discover a deeper awareness of themselves.

There is nothing wrong with you for feeling afraid, anxious, depressed, angry, depleted of energy, numb, lost, and confused. In fact, your courage and your willingness to be vulnerable are what make you resilient. Your body is responding to its environment, and that’s normal. It is sending you messages and we are going to decipher those messages together. Be so kind to yourself as you are about to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

“Someone I loved once gave me a box of darkness. It took years to realize that this, too, was a gift.”-Mary Oliver / My belief is that healing takes place in relationships.
