Therapy is a process that can be challenging and at times hard, yet an exciting journey to be embraced. I believe in mindfulness, sincerity, honesty, and that people are inherently strong and have many of their own internal answers. Therapy is a partnership that encompasses a growth process that provides knowledge and tools to life's amazing roadmap. I work with clients to develop a collaborative approach to address concerns to meeting personal goals and the potential they believe in. I am passionate about my work and have deep respect for the clients I work with and the risks they take.

Life can be messy at times. I am here to help you sort out the messy parts in addition to celebrating your wins! I privilege, honor, and center the experiences and inner wisdom of my clients to help them resolve problems and improve their relationships. I believe that people are inherently good, capable, and resilient. You are the expert on your life, and my job is to witness and respond creatively to the challenges you experience with creative, effective interventions in a safe, shame-free space where you can feel heard and understood. I am also a board approved supervisor with the BMFT and the BBHT.

I specialize with children 0-5, neurodivergent/queer/questioning people of all ages, and couples. My individual sessions are trauma informed and social justice oriented with children, teens, and adults. I love helping with skills for neurodivergence, adjusting to life changes, parenting, pre/post natal and relationship issues. My couples are often Queer, Polyam, and Kink; although all couples are welcome. I also help couples with mental health impacts, parenting, sex issues, and identity.

My focus in therapy is to build a trusting relationship which inspires self-discovery and a greater capacity for change. I tend to use a relational style with curiosity, humor, and compassion to hear your story and process with you in a non-judgmental and affirming space. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples. Whether what you're looking for is a diagnosis that helps you understand mental health symptoms and learn ways to cope, better communication skills in your relationships, a safe space to process identity formation or life transitions, or a number of other things, I believe that therapy can be a useful tool.

I empower individuals and couples struggling with anxiety, shame, low self-esteem & communication issues to find deep, wholehearted contentedness and inner-freedom. Using a feminist, anti-racist, trauma-informed, gender & sexuality affirming lens, my goal is to help you grow in love with yourself and your people. You are deserving of your love, and contentment and joy in your relationships is absolutely attainable.

I have experience working with individuals and couples identifying as LGBTQ+ as well as heterosexual, cisgender in the areas of ADHD, anxiety, identity, trauma, parenting, phase of life changes, ENM, communication, and conflict management; among others. As an ADHD brain myself, I have a special interest in working with individuals or couples to address the personal and/or relational challenges of ADHD; we will deconstruct shame and self-worth stemming from ADHD, address communication difficulties, and increase overall understanding of how ADHD impacts all aspects of our lives.

Would you like to become more self aware, accept what you are unable to control, and move toward healing? If you would like support with grief/loss, relationship dynamics/communication, life transitions, exploration of identity and sexuality, and inner discomfort including anxiety and sadness, I am here to support you. Accepting new patients for teletherapy in New York, Minnesota, South Carolina, California and New Jersey for individuals and couples therapy.

Currently, I am working with adults and couples with varying concerns including: grief and loss, depression, anxiety, PTSD and trauma, addiction and substance use, sexual addiction and integrity, faith and spirituality, chronic health issues, OCD and scrupulosity, and relational and family issues.

I'm an Italian-/Irish-American, cis-, queer, always-aspiring-to-be-justice-doing, tarot-card-pulling art witch and half-assed-Buddhist who also happens to be a therapist. A professional artist, teacher and mentor of artists for almost twenty years before becoming a therapist, I offer my full authentic self (this may involve some swearing). I am a solidarity worker. This is transformative change work that values your inherent wisdom and lived experience. My work is truly affirming, rooted in the idea that unconditional love for ourselves, when combined with our innate creativity and knowing, is the strongest healing power we have.

I believe you are the authority on your own life. Within you exists the potential to express your authentic self and to live a fulfilling life. However, there are times in our lives when we may experience stress, depression, anxiety, anger, or complacency. When this happens it can be difficult to manage our lives effectively and with peace of mind. This is when professional support can be helpful. Whatever concerns you are struggling with, I will collaborate with you to help you identify your goals and develop a treatment approach to empower you to realize them.

I work with clients experientially to feel deeply into their own emotions. I help clients learn to relate to themselves and people in their lives in a healthier, more wholesome way. I work by listening closely and pushing clients know what's going on internally. I tell them what I am feeling and ask clients to be in touch with their bodies and feelings not just their thinking. Ideal clients are open to this collaboration to explore emotions and seek new ways of being.

I use an integrative, individualized approach with clients because I believe therapy is a journey based on trust, and should be a space that honors clients knowledge and personal needs. Therapy is more than just a place to vent, and I strive to help people create forward movement. My style is warm, candid, and when appropriate, fairly humorous. My own journey as a daughter, partner, and mother to a 15 and 10 year old informs my work deeply. I work hard to create a space where clients feel free of judgment, while still gently challenging people to do things that may be uncomfortable.

Life is hard and often not fair at times. We seek therapy to feel heard, validated and find ways to move through our pain. I work with a broad range of individuals, couple's and families. My passion is helping those with relational issues, developmental trauma, substance use as well as eating disorders. I will work with individuals (13+). I love working with transplants as I understand the complexities of moving to another part of the country and not knowing the culture. My goal is to help you find yourself, that internal voice that tells you, "you are worthy, you are enough."

Self-exploration with a compassionate, curiously-engaged presence is a powerful experience which results in deep, lasting change. Often times, our experience of the world and ourselves can feel vaguely yet urgently unsatisfying. Sometimes we unconsciously live in a reality which no longer feels like it "fits", but we know therapy is about opening up to see yourself and the world in a new, more boundless way. Confusion is a great step towards new growth, and we can work together to help you experience life more fully. (For efficient scheduling purposes, please email rather than call)

I believe in the inherent glory, beauty, and strength within each individual. While this may sound idealistic, it's undeniable that our lives often encompass brokenness, pain, darkness, and shame, obscuring our true essence. My mission is to guide you through understanding your personal narrative or "mythos" that has sculpted your identity. This involves exploring your self-perception, spiritual beliefs, and your interaction with the world. I am committed to journeying with you through the depths of pain and darkness to uncover the profound truth of our existence – that we are intimately known and cherished by God.

Welcome! Being human is a beautiful and vulnerable experience that doesn't always have directions or clear answers. You may be here because you feel struck in patterns that are holding you back or feel overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed in your daily life.

If you are longing to live authentically and experience meaningful relationships, you've come to the right place!
