Meaningful therapy allows vitality, authenticity, and a sense of freedom to emerge. I help clients experience more of these vivid feelings of aliveness. To cultivate them, we first need to understand what is blocking them. Because humans are wired for survival, many protective adaptations: rigid “shoulds,” overthinking, perfectionism, emotional shutdown, or caretaking can become automatic patterns. These strategies often once served an important purpose, but over time they may limit peace, agency, and connection. My work integrates somatic regulation with insight-oriented psychotherapy, helping clients holistically.

I have a deep respect for my clients and their lived experiences.

On the outside everything looks perfect. You’re charming, successful, and accomplished. But on the inside, you feel dead, numb, and hopeless. You’re not exactly sure why, but you question whether it’s BECAUSE of your financial success, high status, and influence that you feel this way. Or you suspect something deeper – that it stems from emotional wounds from the past that never quite healed. So many respect, admire, and look up to you, yet you feel totally disconnected from them… and yourself. It makes you feel like a charlatan. Silently, you wish for that mask to come off so you can have true happiness on the other side.

You're thoughtful, creative, and resilient — and you had to be. You grew up navigating between worlds, carrying more than your share, figuring out who you are in spaces that weren't built for all of you. You've built a life you're proud of. Yet underneath, there are old hurts and patterns that weigh you down. Maybe it's family dynamics that still run you. Maybe it's the weight of your identity — your queerness, your race, the parts that never quite fit. I'm a queer Afro-Latina therapist who works with LGBTQ+ people of color — professionals, grad students, creatives — ready to heal, not just cope. You don't have to carry it alone.

Relationships can be deeply meaningful and connecting, but also complicated and sometimes painful. You may find yourself repeating familiar patterns, struggling to communicate your needs, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or unsure of who you are beneath the expectations placed on you. As a Asian-American woman, I understand what it means to navigate different identities, cultural expectations, and relationships while trying to stay connected to yourself. I strive to create a warm and compassionate space where you can feel more fully yourself: more grounded, more connected, and more human in your experience.

Having worked with a diverse population I understand that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I seek to help you on your unique path of self-empowerment and healing. While I work with everyone across age ranges, my primary focus has been on the LGBTQIA+ population struggling with anxiety, depression, identity, chronic illness, grief and trauma.

The people I work with rarely fit the categories the world assigns them. Many are neurodivergent, LGBTQ, people of colour, or living between cultures and inheritances. They are curious, introspective, and worn by rigid hierarchies.
My work is relational and grounded in critical theory, drawing on psychodynamic, somatic, and trauma-informed traditions. Clients come to me for candour. Realness begets realness. I track insight into the body and into the present moment, and I name what moves in the space between us when a client can hold it with me.

Our clients are thoughtful, capable adults, couples, and adolescents who often look fine on paper but privately feel anxious, burnt out, or caught in patterns that keep repeating. Many have tried to think their way through it. Insight has not been enough. They come looking for therapy that goes deeper than coping skills alone. We are a collaborative group practice of relational, trauma-informed therapists across New York — LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC affirming, without reducing anyone to a label. Together, we look at what lives beneath the surface, so change feels real and lasting — not only a shift in what you can manage in a week.

Therapy can work differently for each person. Some begin an in-depth self-exploration; some address their mental health issues and adjust maladaptive patterns; some learn coping strategies for stress, depression, anxiety, low motivation etc. It is also perfectly normal to be unclear about your direction at the moment. I am happy to help you clarify your needs and assist you to thrive in life, work, and relationships. Collaboration, the sense of safety and warmth are highly valued in this process.

Creative people: Sometimes it may feel like our society doesn’t make space for us. We can feel out of place, alienated, let down, pressured, unsure, unsupported, scattered, stuck, stymied, unconfident, undeserving, unfulfilled, unseen, sabotaged by others, or sabotaged by ourselves. No matter how this manifests for you – as anxiety about the future or depression about the past – you have what it takes to move through the hard stuff towards your truest, proudest self.

Does insurance cover therapy, prescriptions and other behavioral health services?
In general, yes. Laws in the U.S. require insurers to cover essential behavioral health care at the same level as other health care services. Most health plans require a medical diagnosis and treatments that are evidence based and medically essential. This means that life coaching and alternative therapies are not covered, nor is therapy without a diagnosis. Call the number on the back or your insurance card or visit your insurance company's website to review your Summary of Benefits. If you have insurance through your employer, your Human Resources department may also be able to answer questions.
How much does therapy cost with insurance?
The cost of therapy depends on your region, how much training and experience your therapist has, and the type of treatment. The rate for talk therapy generally falls between $100 and $250. For a client seeing an in-network provider, the cost of therapy is often similar to the cost of other health care services. Clients pay co-pays and may need to satisfy a plan’s deductible before benefits kick in.
What is the difference between In-Network and Out-of-Network insurance coverage?
An in-network provider has contracted with an insurer to get paid directly for services, and to accept the insurer’s rate of compensation. Clients are responsible for deductibles and copays. If a therapist is out of network, that means that the client pays the therapist directly for services at the therapist’s regular fee. Out-of-Network providers often give clients a receipt so that they can file for partial reimbursement with their insurance company.
Is it difficult to find an In-Network therapist?
It is not unusual for therapists to limit the number of insurance patients in their practice, so it’s important to check in-network availability when you schedule your first appointment. In regions and times where therapy is in high demand it may take longer to get scheduled with an in-network therapist.
What is the difference between HMO and PPO insurance plans?
HMO health plans only cover in-network services, there is no reimbursement for out-of-network providers. PPO plans often cover both in- and out-of-network services, though the client may pay more for out-of-network services.
What is a Superbill?
A superbill is a receipt for therapy services. It provides all the information required by insurance companies to reimburse you for out-of-network services, including the diagnostic codes for your care, the amount paid, and the dates and duration of care.
Does insurance cover Online therapy?
Many therapists who shifted their practice to online therapy during the pandemic have kept that arrangement. And most insurers continue to cover telehealth services, with a few exceptions. Preventive care (such as an annual depression screening) is often required to be in-person to be covered, and some states require prescribers of controlled substances to see those patients in person.
Does insurance cover Group therapy?
Many insurance plans provide coverage for group therapy provided there is a medical diagnosis for group members, but there are some noteworthy exceptions. For example, Medicare does not always cover group therapy. Group therapy tends to cost less than individual therapy.
Does insurance cover Couples therapy?
Most insurance companies do not cover the cost of couples therapy because there is no medical diagnosis or medically necessary treatment. However, a few plans will offer a limited benefit, so it is still worth checking with your insurance company. Sometimes therapy is covered for a couple when one person has a diagnosis and another family member joins them for joint therapy, but it is considered therapy for the medical condition that includes a family member as a listener or helper, not couples counseling. Without insurance, most clients pay between $100-300 per 60-90 min session for couples therapy. Often clients can find classes or workshops that make it more affordable to work on their relationship. And some employers offer Employee Assistance Plans that help defray the cost of couples therapy.
What is an Employee Assistance Plan (EAP)?
Employee Assistance Plans are purchased by employers for the benefit of their employees. EAPs typically assist employees with referrals and may also provide the first few sessions of therapy free of charge, with the patient's regular health insurance kicking in after those initial sessions. EAP benefits often apply to all types of therapy without the need for a medical diagnosis, making it easier to access couples therapy, therapy for life transitions, and other non-medical counseling. Just as with standard health insurance, clients should always check that a provider accepts their EAP benefits before scheduling. Learn more about Insurance Coverage and Finding Affordable Therapy
