You're doing everything you can to keep things together—pushing through stress, managing responsibilities, and showing up for others—yet something still feels off. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, grief lingers, or a major life transition has left you feeling lost. Perhaps you're struggling with your identity, relationships, or the weight of expectations. It can be exhausting to carry it all alone. You deserve a space where you can be heard, understood, and supported in creating real, lasting change. Whether you're facing overwhelming emotions, navigating personal challenges, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to help you.

With over twenty-five years of experience as an Ivy League-educated psychotherapist, I offer compassionate, personalized support tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, grief, identity challenges, or major transitions, I use evidence-based approaches to help you gain clarity, resilience, and confidence in your journey.

You don’t have to navigate these challenges alone. I provide a safe, affirming space—especially for those in the LGBTQ+ community—to explore your emotions, make sense of your experiences, and move forward with strength. If you’re ready to take that next step, I’m here to help you build a path toward healing, growth, and balance.
