Female Therapists in Hell's Kitchen, New York, NY

As a therapist, my priority is to foster a therapeutic environment that feels encouraging, warm, and uniquely tailored to each client. I care deeply about using a genuine, non-judgmental approach as I help you navigate complex emotions, challenging relationships, and the moments of uncertainty that life often presents us. Therapy can be a transformative experience when given a space that invites vulnerability and curiosity and inspires introspection. My goal is to welcome opportunities for personal reflection and change, while also working together to process any anxiety, grief, shame, or loss of direction in times of distress.

Do you feel like you're taking care of everyone else in your life? Maybe it's time to work with someone who can hold space for you. Therapy is most effective when clients feel safe and seen. Because of this, I aim to create an accepting, non-judgmental, and inclusive space for you to be your true self. I work with a range of clients who feel stuck, lost, unmotivated, or anxious, and I specialize in helping clients navigate major life changes (including quarter-life crises), work through imposter syndrome, and engage in self-exploration.

Therapy can be a potent force in helping you to understand yourself and make meaningful changes in your life.

As a licensed creative arts therapist (drama, art, music, movement, play. creative writing) my skills are especially suitable for clients who have been through levels of trauma (domestic violence, divorce, dating abuse, PTSD, grief and loss, depression, self-harm, anxiety. etc.). In addition, I work with high-functioning kids/teens on the autism spectrum. I have found that the visual and physical work of role-playing, scene-work, improvisation, simple drawings, and video work increases their skills to recognize facial cues and feelings. Through play, these clients build self-esteem, social skills, deepen their emotional range and gain empathy.

I’m a licensed psychologist in NY, NJ, DC and 41 other US States. My journey here is deeply personal. Growing up, I often felt out of place, struggling to understand my emotions and navigate the challenges of adolescence and young adulthood. I know how isolating it can feel to believe something is wrong with you. That experience fuels my commitment to helping others find clarity, connection, and self-compassion as they face their own challenges.
