As a therapist, I work collaboratively with clients using trauma informed somatic and evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Parts Work, and MI (Motivational Interviewing).
Looking for a therapist can be a vulnerable process. I am here to support you in figuring out whether we could be a good fit. My style of therapy is connected, open and collaborative with the goal of helping you gain a deeper understanding of yourself. I am warm, expressive, direct, and honest.

As a therapist embodying diverse identities, I understand the complexities and challenges of striving for a life of authenticity. This perspective deepens my appreciation for the great depths of the human condition that shape our lived experiences.
I work often with those seeking deeper self-understanding, navigating identity, relationships, or disconnection from themselves or others. In practice, this means I remain attentive to the cores of one's challenges and what unfolds between us in the therapeutic relationship to support greater insight, agency, and a more grounded way of relating to the self and to others.

I practice EMDR, a powerful technique for the healing of trauma.
Clients come to therapy feeling flawed. They are weighed down by shame or tense with fear and anxiety. They are disappointed in themselves for failing to progress on their own.
My work helps identify these stubborn mental cycles and allows clients to explore who they can be without the bind of shame, anger, and fear. In my decade of practice, I have learned the many intricacies of this process of healing and growth. Sometimes it requires an adjustment; other times it unfolds beautifully on its own.
A sense of safety is key. When I am not sure how a client feels, I ask. Only then can they avail themselves of the work.

I have a plethora of experience working with people in various stages of their lives. In my career, I have worked closely with high achieving professionals, veterans, university students, couples, parents, and families. Together, we have navigated a wide array of life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, depression, anxiety, sexual wellness, chronic health concerns, identity development, and legacy work.

My ideal clients are adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. I support individuals seeking clarity, emotional balance, and healthier coping strategies. Through a collaborative, compassionate approach, I help clients build insight, strengthen resilience, and develop practical tools to improve their well-being, relationships, and decision-making.

My approach is grounded in EMDR and Internal Family Systems, or IFS.
I work primarily with folks in the queer and trans community, as well as people of all identities who are navigating anxiety, OCD, grief, and trauma. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that are hard to shift, or carrying experiences that still feel present in your body, you don’t have to go through it alone. I see symptoms not necessarily as problems to eliminate, but as meaningful responses that deserve understanding.

I frequently use EMDR (an evidence-based treatment) to help clients who feel "stuck," anxious, or looking to resolve painful relationship patterns.
I am a Gender Queer-identified therapist with over 25 years of experience working with diverse Transgender, Queer, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Gay identified individuals. My style is warm, active, and authentic. Starting therapy is hard, so my priority in early sessions is for you to feel relaxed, understood, and comfortable. Your laughter and questions are welcomed. With a background in LGBTQ+ public health, I am sensitive to the challenges and stressors that come with living outside cisgender/hetero norms. I also value subjugated knowledge - our wisdom from not fitting into the dominant culture.

I provide a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, inner conflicts, and hopes for change. Together, we’ll uncover patterns that no longer serve you and address challenges that may be contributing to emotional pain. Whether you’re navigating issues around intimacy, relationships, parenting, work dissatisfaction, creative blocks, or overwhelming emotions, therapy can be transformative.

I use EMDR therapy and Somatic Experiencing tools when that could be a useful approach to resolve areas in which you feel triggered or anxious.
I specialize in helping people work through the stresses life inevitably throws at us - relationships, work problems, family conflict, and childhood trauma. I am a Certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist which is a highly successful and proven treatment for PTSD, anxiety and depression.

I am trained in Somatic Experiencing (SE), Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and other advanced modalities (TRM, CCTP, DIR), with over 25 years experience in complex trauma and dissociative disorders.
You appear highly capable while internally managing chronic stress, overwhelm, identity-related strain, relational patterns shaped by trauma. The tension and heaviness don't have to dominate your daily experience. It is possible to renew your nervous system, honor the strength it took to survive, and continue into freedom and ease. Therapy with me is structured, attuned, and grounded. We work at a pace your nervous system can tolerate, with attention to boundaries, consent, and practical integration. My role is to help you develop greater internal stability, choice, and self-trust.

Informed by my background as a creative, I blend my knowledge in AEDP, EMDR, and IFS with an understanding of the unique challenges artists face.
Maybe you wish it were easier to accept love from others or to build a more meaningful relationship with your body. I want to walk with you towards these important goals. Searching for a therapist can be frustrating, exhausting, and confusing—you're not alone. The system can add stress, and I’m here to make the process as clear and supportive as possible.

I am both trained in and provide Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR) therapies.
I use an integrative, individualized approach drawing from relational, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed therapies. I work with adults facing a range of issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and transitional stressors. I specialize in treating individuals who have experienced abuse and/or trauma.

I am trained in using CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches to help people make lasting changes to their self-image that lead to real changes in their lives.
My practice has focused on working with adults, adolescents, and queer folx suffering from low self-esteem, perfectionism, negative self-talk, anxiety (generalized, panic, OCD, due to adjustment, trauma) depression, familial rejection, and emerging parenthood. Our MD office also offers neurofeedback for treatment resistant anxiety, depression and attention.

I primarily use a combination of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR).
You struggle with intense emotions and feel stuck in your life. You feel irritable, down, worried, or numb more days than not. You may lash out at others or yourself. Old coping strategies no longer work. It’s difficult to imagine life improving - for you to do anything other than tolerate your symptoms. The clients I work with have experienced trauma of all kinds, including childhood sexual abuse, betrayal, sexual assault, incest, combat trauma, racism, ableism, homophobia, physical and emotional abuse, and dysfunctional families.

Using relational, attachment-based, somatic therapy and EMDR, we process patterns, regulate the nervous system, and create healthier relationships with yourself.
You look successful and capable on the outside, but inside you feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of who you are anymore. Many of my clients are high-functioning NYC professionals who have spent years people-pleasing, overthinking, and prioritizing others to stay safe or succeed. They come to therapy because this way of living is no longer sustainable—it’s affecting their sense of self, clarity, and relationships. They want to feel grounded again, make decisions with confidence, and reconnect with who they are beneath the roles they’ve been holding.
