On a personal note, I'm a queer Jewish nonbinary woman who's big on crafting, reading sci-fi and fantasy, playing Dungeons & Dragons and cozy switch games, and thrifting.
I specialize in child centered play therapy with young children ages 2-7 and person centered counseling for adults 20-40. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, neurodivergence, gender and sexual identity exploration, suicide, coping with oppression, and adjusting to life changes. My door is wide open to anyone in the LGBTQIA+ community, neurodivergent folks, and polyamorous individuals/families, or anyone looking to do the brave work of understanding themselves more deeply.

Many in today's world feel disconnected. You may feel disconnected from yourself, from those you love and even perhaps from a sense of any greater purpose in your life. What I love to do is help individuals, and families reconnect and hopefully come into a greater fullness of life.

Trauma, life stress, and emotional difficulties can cause persons to encounter challenges at home, work, and school. Some experiences are routine, although sometimes events create less positive outcomes in family/peer relationships or school/work performance. Persons can feel overly worried or hopeless; engage in damaging behaviors; or face changes to socializing, eating, or sleeping habits. If you are experiencing challenges, I can help you help you modify old patterns using various modalities.

You look capable on the outside but inside relationships feel harder than they should. You overthink texts, brace for conflict, or shut down when things get tense. You want closeness, yet somehow end up in the same painful cycle—pursuing, withdrawing, criticizing, or going quiet. You long to feel secure, chosen, and steady in love instead of constantly scanning for disconnection.

If you’re a teen or young adult, life can feel like a glitchy game you’re supposed to win—but no one gave you the instructions. School, work, and relationships can feel overwhelming, and explaining yourself gets exhausting. You might feel out of place, burned out, or like you’re constantly trying to keep up. You want to feel understood, find your voice, and actually handle life without everything feeling so hard. I help teens and young adults who feel out of sync go from anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck to feeling more confident, understood, and able to handle life without burning out.

Life is messy, people are weird, and sometimes it can feel like your brain is working against itself. I’m an engaged, collaborative therapist who shows up authentically, because I can’t ask you to do the same without meeting you there. I’ll validate what’s real, call out patterns that are keeping you stuck, and stay with you through the crying, venting, and questioning everything, sometimes all in the same session. If you’re looking for a formal, reserved therapy style, I may not be the right fit for you. But if you want a therapist who’s deeply human, a little sarcastic, and fully in your corner? Hi. I’m your girl.

 Besides private practice, I have worked for agencies working with families, providing groups on systematic training for effective parenting, developing and implementing caregiver support groups, and running parent support groups.

Jewish Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same background to be able to work together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of cultural forces, such as discrimination, that may contribute to that client’s concerns. With a professional who has such training, a client should feel comfortable discussing sensitive issues without feeling that they need to self-censor.

How can I recognize an effective Jewish therapist?
As with members of any religious or ethnic group, just because two people happen to be Jewish does not guarantee that they will share the same values, knowledge, or experiences. A Jewish client seeking a therapist who shares their cultural identity, or for whom it’s important that a therapist share their religious beliefs, may want to discuss a professional’s Jewish background with them before beginning therapy. For someone who seeks justification for major life changes in their religious tradition, or in biblical writings, finding a therapist who is comfortable framing guidance in that context may be especially valuable.

Would a Jewish therapist have unique training?
No, but they should have the same training and certification as any other mental health professional, as well as experience with a range of evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or mindfulness-based therapy. A therapist with this type of experience should be able to help any client feel comfortable and safe, which is essential for a therapeutic alliance. Once this is established, a potential client may want to find out more about the therapist’s Jewish background.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with Jewish clients?
A client can directly ask a therapist if they have extensive experience working with Jewish clients and if so, whether these individuals sought counseling for faith-related issues or marital or familial issues in which their Jewish background was a factor. A client may also wish to ask a potential therapist whether they incorporate Jewish teachings and values into their own professional work.

Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Jewish therapists?
The directory of Jewish therapists includes professionals who have opted to share their cultural background on their profiles. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their background, and they may not appear in search results for this reason.The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Jewish clients and/or communities.
