I’m a New York–licensed therapist providing telehealth therapy to adults across New York State. I help people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or emotionally exhausted — especially those who are high-functioning on the outside but struggling internally. Therapy can be a space where you finally slow down, feel understood, and begin to make meaningful changes. Many of the people I work with are professionals, caregivers, and parents who are used to putting others first.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, burnout, and life transitions. Many of my clients struggle with people-pleasing, overthinking, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling disconnected from themselves and others. If you’ve been carrying a lot on your own, you don’t have to keep doing it alone.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I tailor therapy to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based and body-aware methods to help you feel more grounded, regulated, and confident in your daily life. Therapy with me is practical, supportive, and focused on helping you create lasting change — not just short-term relief.

Sessions are structured yet flexible, with a focus on practical tools you can use outside of therapy. We'll work on understanding patterns, building healthier boundaries, and reducing anxiety and emotional overload. My goal is to help you feel more confident and in control in your day-to-day life.
