I am a New York State licensed therapist working with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, and life transition challenges. If you feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns of overthinking or avoidance, or unsure how to move forward, therapy offers a space to slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and make meaningful change. Together, we work to help you feel more grounded and connected to yourself while integrating practical strategies to gain clarity and meaning, improve mood, and increase tolerance for uncertainty and difficult emotions.
I combine cognitive behavioral approaches with a reflective style of therapy to help you better understand the patterns shaping your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We also explore how past experiences may be influencing current struggles. Treatment is tailored to your needs so our work feels practical, meaningful, and supportive of lasting change.
If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out. You’re welcome to schedule a free 15-minute consultation through my website to see if we might be a good fit. I offer both virtual and in-person therapy.
