We all need meaningful relationships to make it through this chaotic morass called Life, but maybe you've lost the plot on how to find them. Maybe you've done a lot of individual work, but your interpersonal connections are lagging behind. Maybe you're socializing a lot, but meeting people you don't feel connected to, and ending up lonelier than when you started. Maybe you're hiding out at home, doom-scrolling and feeling like a friendless pariah. Maybe you have great people in your life, but need new tools to improve your communication with them. Or maybe you want a place to speak about what it means to be human? All good reasons.

Psychotherapy can be a challenging and rewarding process. Of course, people come to treatment to talk about what's wrong, but it is also important to talk about what's right. Each person has natural areas of strength we can further develop to help increase coping skills, reduce distress, improve relationships, and develop a more positive outlook.

As a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) and a Registered Drama Therapist (RDT), in New York and Philadelphia, I believe that creativity is essential to the journey towards self-discovery and transformation. I explore patterns that may no longer be serving you, while highlighting the parts of self that are adaptive. I work with adolescents and adults who have been impacted by trauma, anxiety, infertility/loss, perinatal/postpartum, relationship issues, learning differences, and the artists journey. I'm queer affirming, and work from an anti- oppressive/ trauma informed lens.

Partnering with adolescents (ages 9-18), young adults (ages 18-30), and parents to set goals, improve lives, reduce symptoms, and affirm identity is the foundation of my work. I am behaviorally trained and experienced in providing a variety of treatments shown by research to be effective for OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, suicidality, and emotion dysregulation, including CBT, ERP, TF-CBT, and DBT-informed therapy. I am passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community and provide gender-affirming psychotherapy to transgender folks. I enjoy working with parents on their own journey of parenting a gender-diverse youth.

It takes courage to recognize when something in your life isn’t working the way you’d hoped. You might be struggling with relationships, difficult life changes, or a sense of disconnection from yourself or others. Maybe you’re feeling anxious, depressed, stuck, or overwhelmed by emotions you can’t quite name. These kinds of difficult feelings often signal parts of ourselves that need attention and care. In my work with both individuals and couples, these signals are explored so we can begin to uncover areas for healing, growth, and meaningful transformation. My specialties include: relationship issues, trauma, family conflict, ADHD.

Joseph Campbell wrote that, "Opportunities to find deeper power within ourselves come when life seems most challenging." I applaud the courage it takes to reach out for help, knowing that our first reaction to debilitating fear, pain, and life challenges is often to try to ignore or avoid it. Therapy is an opportunity to suffer less and thrive more, and undergo transformation in the context of a safe and supportive environment.

Most of the clients I see have a history of trauma—physical or sexual abuse, neglect, or developmental trauma, which is the residue of dysfunctional caregiving. I believe strongly that people are naturally inclined to heal; our bodies and minds lean toward wholeness, even if it often feels like we can’t get there. While we go on with our day-to-day lives, acting as though everything is okay, the parts of us that were hurt—most often young parts—are still waiting and hoping for some kind of resolution to their pain. In therapy we look for those parts and take care of them; we nurture them and help them heal.

Self-betterment is an investment that is aligned with self-love and positive reinforcement. I believe that identifying the underlying issues is imperative to effectively manage and increase your resilience against daily stressors. My ultimate goal is to build a trusting client-therapist relationship that will promote change and lead to a positive psychotherapy outcome.
