I’m a trans and queer psychotherapist and World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) Certified Member. I’m dedicated to providing safe, therapeutic space for transgender, gender expansive, queer, and questioning clients. As a dual-state licensed clinician in California and New York, my clinical practice, Trans Affirming Therapy serves to fill a critical need in creating competent, affirming, accessible care for our community and offers a warm environment to explore, process, and repair relationships within the self and with others. We’ll explore how your lived experience impacts your internal and external worlds.

Are you a creative, tender soul confronted with issues of self-worth and having trouble getting your needs met? Do you strive to ensure you're liked, accepted, and approved of at the expense of expressing your authentic self or pursuing what you truly desire? Are you your own worst critic, rarely giving yourself a break from the burden of shame, blame, and guilt? I believe in our true state of being, we are all already brilliant and whole. My job therefore is not to "fix" or "cure" you, but to help you reconnect with your innate resources so you can naturally heal and grow.

What brings you to therapy? That is a question I hope to explore together. I enjoy working with clients through all stages of the therapeutic process. Whether you are experiencing a life transition, coping with anxiety, depression, the impact of trauma or questions around identity, I am eager to join you on your journey. I think the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important containers we have as we navigate an increasingly complex world, with its myriad challenges and demands. I seek to be a safe place to explore, question and make meaning, even out of the tougher materials of our lives.

I offer a safe space for all forms of self-expression for individuals and couples across the sexuality spectrum. Often when we are placed in environments with intense levels of stress, whether this is from relationship issues, anxiety/depression, addiction or other life situations, we hold pain and trauma deep in our bodies. When we are unable to process and release this from our bodies, we become stuck in patterns that are unhealthy. I also specialize in couples therapy, utilizing Gottman Method Techniques as well as Emotionally Focused Therapy, to provide a safe space to explore sexual, relational and life challenges.

I work using an anti-oppressive and trauma informed perspective with a focus on trauma, gender, sexuality, life transitions, feeling stuck, coming out later in life, and navigating relationships. I believe mindful attention to the physical experience can provide insight and space for empathy, when words are hard to conjure. I’m passionate about helping people connect with their body and discover ways to honor their authentic selves. I specialize in working with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and TGNC/NB communities.

Book a session with me if you want to find a compassionate, understanding, and open space to delve into self-exploration and self-expression. Therapy has always been near and dear to my heart; my own experiences in therapy throughout my life have been transformative for me in countless ways, especially through times of hardship. Joining the field as a professional is my way of paying that forward. I aspire to engage in meaningful work and aim to make a significant impact on others’ lives for the better, as my own therapeutic experiences have done for me.

My clients typically enter therapy hoping to learn more about themselves, gain tangible coping skills, build meaningful relationships, and process & heal from trauma. They often experience one or more of the following: disordered eating, depression, anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, neurodivergence, PTSD, ADHD, exploring gender or sexuality (or both!), codependency, or PMDD. Recognizing the systemic roots of many presenting problems, I validate the past experiences of clients who have felt like therapy wasn’t for them and recognize the roles of privilege and politics in mental health. I work with individuals, couples, and families.

We're all worth it, man . We're all worth millions of planets and stars and galaxies and universes . River Phoenix ... If you are like any of the sensitive, deep-feeling creatives and empaths that find their way to my office, you sense that we are in the midst of a monumental shift on this planet . And you don't feel prepared for what comes next ... for the global changes on the way ... let alone, in your own personal life . You feel lost . Overwhelmed . Tired of survival-mode ... numbing and distracting yourself ... just trying to get through the day . You are ready for something bigger . More fulfilling . More expansive .

I earned my master’s degree in social work from Columbia University where I focused on clinical practice and contemporary social issues. I follow an anti-oppressive framework and apply a strength based and client-centered approach to my work with survivors of sexual assault, childhood sexual abuse and domestic violence. I have extensive experience providing crisis support and on-going counseling to patients who identify as LGBTQIA or HIV-affected and have been impacted by violence and/or struggle with depression, anxiety or PTSD. In practice, I use a combination of trauma informed care and cognitive behavioral therapy.

Since the age of eight, I have regularly attended counseling, and it saved me. Decades later, counseling has become my calling--my desire to share the techniques that help us cope with the forces in our lives we cannot control. As a natural advocate of mental, physical, and spiritual health, I also teach yoga regularly. I believe that we reach a state of peace, when we take our lives into our own hands. My mission is to help you build your individual strength, gain insight, and develop effective ways of coping with life and relationships.

There are many reasons why people seek therapy and finding the right therapist can be a frustrating process. I hold space to address concerns around sexuality, gender, identity, desire, performance and orgasm. I also support others with general psychotherapy concerns related to depression, anxiety, trauma, dating, relationships, and life transitions and offer coaching around dating, kink, and CNM. During our work together we will explore how to develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationship with others and I will offer tools as well as my feedback for living a more meaningful, fulfilling, and pleasurable life.

I help BIPOC men and LGBTQIA individuals overcome stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma by taking a whole person approach, focusing on body, mind, self, and spirit. I listen to your story with empathy and respect, integrating it into our sessions for healing. Using evidence-informed care tailored to your needs, I incorporate proven interventions through research informed therapy.

I believe we are all on a journey to find happiness, purpose, and meaning in life. While the route is not always clear, I am dedicated to helping my clients sort out where they are, and get them to where they’re going. I have experience with clients of all ages with diverse presenting concerns and I modify my treatment modality to meet the unique needs of each person. Working with adolescents and young adults, LGBTQIA folks, and individuals struggling with anxiety, social skills and communication are particular passions of mine.

I am deeply passionate about supporting others who wish to actively increase their self-knowledge and develop the resources with which to heal, grow, and reach their potential for a full and meaningful life. In modern psychology we must utilize a combination of psycho-social-cultural-and-spiritual methods with which to treat the mind and understand the self; we require a vast set of tools that are rooted both in science and the art of being human in an often difficult world. Without such wisdom it is far too easy to fall prey to the ailments of a fragmented life, leaving us anxious, depressed, and unable to process our trauma.

I offer a supportive space for individuals and couples to grow through their challenges and pain. I’ve helped people gain insight into where they feel "stuck", become more engaged and present, and make positive changes in their lives by tuning in to their internal compass. I also offer Ketamine-assisted therapy and psychedelic preparation sessions, as well as integration sessions to help people process and integrate insights gained from past journeys.

I work in private practice with individuals and couples who seek to improve their emotional wellbeing and quality of life. My specialties include include treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self esteem, substance abuse, and couples work. I practice through a relational, psychodynamic, collaborative approach with clients in my office on the Upper West Side of NYC. I charge on a sliding scale and am flexible with fee based on the individual financial needs of my clients. I am open to working through facetime/google chat/skype sessions.
