I am a clinician in the mental health field with 20+ years of experience. I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work from Columbia University. My clinical practice incorporates several evidence-based modalities, including being an EMDRIA certified therapist and training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Additionally, I am an Advanced Certified Teacher of the Befriending Your Body Program. This unique 8-week Somatic Self-Compassion Recovery program teaches skills of embodiment and self-compassion, aimed at addressing disordered eating and fostering peace with one's body, food, and Self.
I practice from the perspective that everyone has the capacity to find peace, empowerment, and freedom within. I am honored to bear witness to your story and support you on your journey.
My next 8-week Befriending Your Body Group will begin in May 2026. Please visit my website for more information and to register.
