As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York, I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts and feelings. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, questions related to identity, or simply seeking greater clarity, I’m here to support you. I have a special interest in working with the LGBTQ+ community, new or expectant parents, and college students, although I welcome anyone who thinks I might be a good fit. I currently have early evening availability during the week for virtual sessions. Please reach out for a quick call to see if we "click"!
