Negative mindsets and past trauma can weigh down your motivation and discourage you from seeing all of your magic. I will do my best to help you see the positives of it all and find the tiny beautiful things in your life and in yourself that make it all worthwhile. I help adults and teens dealing with Trauma/PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, relationship issues, antisemitism, and histories of abuse.
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy(CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy(ACT), and post-modern modalities to guide clients on their journey to achieving their goals. As a queer therapist, there's no shame or judgment in my space – just openness and compassion.
I love learning people’s stories and I am endlessly curious about human nature. I have a lived experience that allows me to empathize with all walks of life and all issues and emotions. I know that you already have everything you need to succeed, and I can’t wait to help you see that too.
