Now Accepting clients virtually Saturday, SUNDAY, and MONDAY evenings! Take the first step towards transformation. Together, we can explore your journey, implement strategies for change, and uncover the results that are not only possible but achievable. Life is too precious not to live it to the fullest, and I am here to support you every step of the way. I invite you to discover moments of peace and cultivate hope for the future. Life is too short not to embrace the joy and contentment that can be found within it.

Immediate availability. You've carried the weight of your struggles alone for far too long. The mere thought of reaching out for help, expressing your needs, and acknowledging your worth as a person feels like an insurmountable hurdle! Anxiety and depression seem to have a firm grip, distorting your perspective. Navigating through emotions has become a labyrinth, and anger simmers beneath the surface. The pressures of life have left you seeking effective stress management strategies. Self-esteem feels elusive, and issues related to masculinity and femininity weigh heavily on your shoulders. Perfectionism has crushed self-acceptance.

If you are struggling with feeling stuck, hopeless, or overwhelmed, therapy may be exactly what you need. Within the therapeutic relationship, you will find nonjudgmental acceptance, an empathetic listener, and compassion for every part of your life story. In working together, I believe that we can untangle some of the thoughts, fears, and challenges that may be holding you back from your greatest potential.

Outwardly your life appears good. You’re accomplished, educated, and successful. You’ve mastered the art of presentation, the illusion of perfection. But inside, you aren’t happy, never feeling good enough with that internal voice reminding you where you fall short. You are irritable, flat, tearful and hanging on by a thread. Recently, it's gotten worse. The years of keeping it together have left you exhausted, overwhelmed, stressed, and not even recognizing yourself. Feeling disappointed, disillusioned and dissatisfied, you’re desperate for a change. Should you get divorced, change careers, or drive away in the middle of the night?

I am passionate about working with families, couples, and individuals who are managing both physical and mental health conditions or couples/families going through various life transitions, and relational stress. We don't exist in isolation, especially when on the long journey of chronic health care. I work within an integrated and collaborative care model, viewing the problem from a holistic standpoint and alongside other members of the care team in order to best serve all areas of the client's life. What does this chapter of life look like? What is possible?

There is a person behind that problem who desires to experience a more meaningful, satisfactory, and purposeful life despite past or current life experiences and challenges. I believe this goal can be achieved through a safe and non-judgmental space where I will listen to understand, acknowledge your strengths and experiences, support, empower, and collaborate with you during your recovery journey. It is my great and humble desire to provide my clients from diverse backgrounds with evidence-based interventions and assessments that reflect their interests, values, culture, and needs.

Deciding to come to therapy can be a difficult decision; one that takes courage and often comes with some anxiety and ambiguity about what the process will entail. I consider empathy, sympathy, and honesty are the key elements to a nurturing and successful therapeutic relationship. I’ve spent the last 4 years training and working with clients at institutions such as New York Presbyterian, New York University and Cornell Medical College. *** Hablo Espanol*****

I work with clients dealing with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, anger, loneliness, guilt, and fear. Said simply, my clients are people, entangled in life's struggles, and they just want to get better.

Does anxiety make you feel stuck? Do you feel like you are facing life’s challenges and struggles alone? I am here to assure there is hope and that therapy can open the space for you to unload all the burdens and allow you to process your experiences in a safe and caring environment. As a therapist working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, ADHD, stress, trauma, and women’s issues, I am here to provide authentic and honest support while helping you navigate your struggles. Remember, you are capable of incredible things, and I am here to guide you towards the life you deserve.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often times self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others and felt empty inside. Instead of accepting my reality and the changing interaction between the environment, others and myself - I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change. Whether you are in a time of transition or a time of pain, I believe that we all have the tools we need to walk toward a loving and meaningful life.
