As a NY and CT clinically licensed psychotherapist trained in EMDR, and a Zen practitioner with decades of meditation practice. I offer mindfulness and somatic strategies along with gentle encouragement to turn towards your innate resilience. With a collaborative style, I listen deeply, provide a grounded space and solid presence, and offer skills and techniques to assist you in finding your own grounding and self determination. I work with those suffering from grief, anxiety, PTSD, depression, intrusive thoughts, and self-esteem issues, as well as romantic life and family issues. My specialty is with life transitions.
Whether you are mourning the death of a loved one or coping with grief from loss of a job, relationship, ability, lifestyle, etc., each of us deserves the space and support to sort through these challenges, as well as tools to help us cope. You are not meant to face your pain alone, and I would like to offer my support on your journey to realizing wholeness.
I have an LCSW from Hunter, CUNY, and an MDiv from Union Theological Seminary. These dual degrees complement one another as I work towards being of service as a therapist. Coming from a strong spiritual background allows me to remain grounded in my work helping others to navigate life’s challenges and, ultimately, to heal.
