As a licensed clinical social worker, I am dedicated to supporting adults (18+) through the complexities of life transitions, relationship dynamics, and emotional challenges. I work with individuals navigating issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and body image concerns, as well as the unique stressors that come with academic life in both undergraduate and graduate settings.
With a background in health care, I bring a compassionate understanding to those coping with grief, chronic illness, caregiving responsibilities, and life-changing diagnoses. I am familiar with the challenges faced by health care professionals, and I create a therapeutic space where clients can explore, heal, and build resilience.
My approach combines empathy with practical strategies to help you manage life’s demands and reconnect with your inner strength and work towards your goals. I am currently practicing virtually in the states of New York and Florida and have availability for appointments in both the daytime and evenings.

I often use a mix of therapy types in my practice. My clients and I will discuss their goals and what brought them into therapy during the first few sessions and then take a collaborative approach on which therapy types may be helpful to utilize throughout the course of treatment.
