You’ve been hit hard by life, and it’s left you feeling stuck, like you’ve been slapped, kicked, or even punched by reality. Now, you’re staring at a growing gap between the life you want and where you are. You can see what life could be, but it feels like you’re trapped in your own head, spiraling further away from your goals. The things you used to enjoy don’t bring you the same happiness anymore, and you find yourself caught in patterns of behavior you wish you could break. You’re craving a change, but it feels like every step forward pulls you two steps back.

Every person goes through a period in their life where they desire to make changes, face difficulties, find the courage to challenge themselves, or simply find that their old ways are no longer serving them in their life.

In my practice I thoroughly believe that a connection between therapist and client is the foundation for healing and change. It is an honor to provide the services that I do. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental safe place for healing.

Something isn't quite right. You've dedicated much to your relationships, yet you keep hitting roadblocks. Partnerships and trust seem harder to come by. Your children are caught in shifting households, leaving you feeling isolated. Family support feels unreliable, and life's challenges seem overwhelming. Where can you turn for wisdom and support? Something feels off. Parents are pushing you to fit a mold that doesn't align with you. It's isolating when no one seems to grasp your perspective. Loneliness weighs heavy, and finding a safe space to share your thoughts seems unsurmountable. Who can you turn to?

My goal as a therapist is to support you during difficult life transitions. These transitions may include becoming a parent, starting or ending a marriage, leaving home for the first time, or untying yourself from a religious identity that was once important to you. Transitions and changes may evoke a sense of grief and loss, regardless if it's positive, negative, or neutral. As a grief specialist, I can help you with the difficult emotions that are associated with these changes. Our sessions would focus on finding the root of your symptoms, processing your grief, and starting your healing journey.

Hi! In a world where so many of us regularly get the message that we are flawed, I think it is important to start by saying something that we might not hear so regularly, which is, that it is okay to be you. But if I’m being honest, being yourself is not always an easy thing to do. As a therapist, I place priority in creating a therapy environment where clients feel safe to share the most authentic versions of themselves without fear of judgement. In addition to a safe therapeutic space, my goal is to assist clients on their paths towards self-expression and self-acceptance no matter where they are in their journey.

I'm a committed and highly dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with excellent rapport-building skills honed through experience as a therapist, teacher, and life lessons. I understand how important the therapeutic relationship is to make progress with your goals. As a prior teacher in NYC observing the multiple hurdles my students had to overcome to make it to school, through the day, and through the year, I found myself prioritizing those needs. I came to understand the role inner-harmony or peace has on our minds and bodies, and this eventually led me to my role as a therapist.
