Teletherapy for New Rochelle, NY

Do you tend to be hard on yourself, often feeling exhausted and on edge? Has it been hard to reach out and explore supportive therapy due to the fear of judgment, fear of change, and doubt? These are common reasons for neglecting your mental wellness. However, it is a strength and a valid responsibility to receive emotional support. Highly accomplished individuals who appear to have it all figured out are also in need of emotional support, and it’s not a weakness. I specialize in working with student doctors and other professionals in stressful work cultures who are dealing with burnout, perfectionism, anxiety, and depression.

My goal is to provide you with holistic therapeutic services from counseling to coaching services in a safe and non judgmental space where you can heal and be your authentic self.

You matter, and you do not need to wait to feel better. Feelings of depression and anxiety, low self-esteem, strained relationships and life’s transitions can be painful. Give yourself the gift of support and learn to manage the present as you heal from your past.
