Do you feel like you are run by your feelings? Do you have difficulty untangling your thoughts and emotions? Have you been noticing the need to constantly look for other people’s positive feedback to reassure yourself of your self-worth? Do you still carry the burden of past traumatic encounters that get in the way of your living freely? Do you find yourself battling with negative judgments about yourself or others which make you feel at times hopeless or desperate? You are not alone. In your struggles with pain and depression, there is a proven path to self-love.

I combine structure and flexibility to meet each client where they are. Depending on your goals, therapy may focus on skills building, trauma processing, identity exploration, or navigating high-stakes life transitions. My work is grounded in DBT, cognitive-behavioral approaches, and mindfulness-based strategies—and always tailored to you.

My therapy approach is collaborative and transparent. Together, we will look at goals you'd like to achieve and form an actionable plan by balancing acceptance and change while cultivating self-compassion. I am currently licensed in VA, NY, MD, MA and DC. If you are interested in, please contact me for a free 15-minute consultation.
