Many identify as neurodivergent and value the collaborative, neuroaffirming space I provide.
You’re here because you're sick of being at war with your body, but you’re stuck. For years you believed shrinking your body was the only way to access the mental relief you crave and while you know by now that "diets don't work", you can't figure out how to just eat and live inside your body in peace. Maybe you've been diagnosed with an eating disorder, or tried to seek help in the past, but were made to feel that you are not "sick enough" to "meet criteria" or access the care you need. Regardless, you know you want to live a more authentic, more liberated life...and you're ready to try a new approach.

I am a clinical psychologist and lifelong New Yorker who specializes in helping clients navigate life transitions. I work with a wide range of individuals from many different walks of life. What many of my patients have in common is courageousness in the face of adversity and a desire to have the fullness and richness of their experience recognized. My patients believe in a shared contribution to the therapeutic process, and that humor helps us heal. Life can be hard, and it's up to us to find moments of light in the dark. And, sometimes, laughter truly is the best medicine.

My expertise is particularly in working with body image and eating disorders, with people who have or wish to be evaluated for autism and/or ADHD, with people experiencing self-injury or suicidal ideation; with people who have "treatment-resistant" or severe anxiety and depression; and with those who have been labeled as having a personality disorder or serious mental illness.
I specialize in working with eating disorders, with neurodivergent individuals, and at the intersection thereof. My approach is psychodynamic, seeking to discover and heal root causes of each person's experiences, bolstered by evidence-based symptom management skills such as DBT, somatic therapies, and AEDP. I offer patient-centered and trauma-informed care.

I also have practiced as a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist, providing gender affirming and neurodivergent affirming care to individuals seeking those services.
I believe that every individual is the expert on their own life, memories, and identities. As every person is unique, I prefer to utilize an integrative approach that caters to a client’s needs. I gravitate towards strengths-based, person-centered, and psychodynamic approaches in conjunction with mindfulness practices. I also pull techniques from internal family systems and gestalt therapy modalities.

I specialize in working with folks with stigmatized behaviors and identities, or who are otherwise mistreated and ignored in traditional mental health settings. My therapeutic approach is, above all else, strengths-based and person-centered. You are the expert in your own experience and what you need. If you're learning to safely unmask your neurodivergent self, exploring your gender identity or sexuality, examining your substance use, or navigating non-traditional relationship structures like ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, BDSM, or queerplatonic dynamics, I'd love to work with you!

I help people feel better and improve their lives with psychotherapy and music therapy. If you are suffering from anxiety, depression, addiction or everyday stress with relationships, work or family. If you want a fluid and creative approach to therapy that helps you go deep to the core of your issues, I can help. I am particularly passionate about working with those who identify as LGBTQIA+, especially trans and GNC folx. In a world full of stigma, with so much pressure to conform to a heteronormative society, being trans or GNC can be an isolating and scary experience. I can help you on your journey to become your true self.
