Therapy offers profound ways of responding more effectively to life's challenges: understanding and managing mental health symptoms and developing healthier, more adaptive coping strategies when facing problems; tools for resolving difficulties and finding more fulfillment in relationships; the possibility of working through past and present trauma, grief and loss; and the opportunity to recognize how our thoughts, beliefs and behaviors affect our relationships to ourselves and others and how self-awareness creates the possibility of change and new experiences. I work with individual adults and adolescents, as well as
couples

My work has been in Community Mental Health working with individuals,
couples
, and families on issues of depression and anxiety, life transitions, LGBTQIA+ issues, creative block, complex trauma and PTSD and interpersonal relationships.
Psychotherapy for me is a space where one can go when major life transitions, difficulties in relationships, creative blocks, issues of identity and life events feel insurmountable. This is also a space to explore the seeds of who we are as people, why we respond to the world in the ways that we do, and how our life thus far has led us to this current moment. In other words, life can be confusing, panic-inducing, heartbreaking, heavy and too much sometimes––therapy can support us in building the tools and infrastructure that we need to get closer to ourselves and to better negotiate these difficulties.

Psychotherapy is a process that encompasses your present-day difficulties, past experiences, and your desire for future change and growth. It attends to the thoughts and feelings of your internal life as well as to the health and intimacy of your connections with others. Together, we will work on the stuck and constricted emotional currents and
relationship
patterns that are keeping you in repetitive cycles. With compassion and candor, I help clients to find relief and insight, and to experience the expansive quality of greater self-knowledge, meaning and purpose in their lives.

I offer Telehealth services for residents of New York State. I am genuine, empathetic, and will help you get through your current challenges.

My experience includes working with diverse populations in various settings with individuals, youth,
couples
, and families.
Life is a journey...a journey full of transitions - highs and lows, twists and turns, everything in between. No matter the struggle, obstacle, or challenge, we can all use some help at times. Whether it's depression, anxiety, interpersonal or other issues, I can be the professional you've been looking for. By providing a safe space where you can truly be yourself, I can provide help to work through the challenges of life and be the best version of you. I believe each person is filled with potential and has noble intentions in their actions. I am culturally sensitive as I have experience working with a variety of populations.

You may have found yourself here because something isn’t working anymore. Whether in your
relationship
, your job, or negative thoughts that you can’t seem to redirect, it may feel like your typical coping skills or support systems aren’t enough. That’s ok. Take a breath and know that untangling this right now is not something you have to do alone. In my practice, I work with adults navigating interpersonal relationships, career stress, self-esteem and personal growths. I have experience with eating disorders, substance abuse, and trauma, and a special interest in working with the unique struggles of creative and performing artists.
