Is your love life not working out? Unsure if it's you? Want to show up as the best you? As a therapist, I am passionate about helping individuals navigate the complex journey of self-discovery and personal growth. With years of experience in the field, I believe that healing begins with a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

Hello and welcome to my page! I believe that all individuals are capable of healing and growth with the help of an understanding, compassionate, and supportive therapist. Therapy is a vulnerable process and I strive to provide an environment where my client feels safe. I also believe that insight alone is not enough for change to occur and therefore I bring experiential work into the room, often engaging the body and somatic experience in our work. My approach to therapy integrates Attachment Theory, Psychodynamic Theory, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Experiential Therapy, and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP).

Reaching out for help shows personal strength and the courage to change. A therapist who understands you can help guide you toward a feeling of inner resilience. I specialize in treating trauma, emotional suffering, relationship issues, and psychological stress. I provide care that meets your individual needs to empower you as you explore, process change, and learn to be present with what is.

I approach psychotherapy from a transformative stance that empowers the client to explore one's inner self in a nonjudgmental and safe environment. It's a collaborative process involving us working together to navigate life challenges and foster personal growth uniquely tailored to your needs. We are a culturally-centered, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive practice that utilizes clinical approaches so that we as a community can reclaim and experience transformative healing.

I enjoy working with adults, families, couples, and groups. I utilize a psychodynamic perspective influenced by existential psychotherapy and family systems, and incorporate Gestalt techniques and elements of narrative therapy. I have a foundational training in DBT and, depending on client’s needs, will teach concrete skills to strengthen emotion regulation, decrease anxious/ depressive symptoms, increase resilience and distress tolerance, improve communication, and strengthen boundaries in relationships.

I teach Psychoanalysis and train new therapists at the LP program at GC. The past decade has strengthened my desire and capacity to help you heal from heartbreak, disappointment and grief and to come fully alive. Together, we can find what holds you back; integrate the parts of you that are fighting, and transform difficulties into strengths and gifts. People I work with find my non-judgmental, warm, calming and creative attitude helps them listen to what they need and love themselves.

Since the age of eight, I have regularly attended counseling, and it saved me. Decades later, counseling has become my calling--my desire to share the techniques that help us cope with the forces in our lives we cannot control. As a natural advocate of mental, physical, and spiritual health, I also teach yoga regularly. I believe that we reach a state of peace, when we take our lives into our own hands. My mission is to help you build your individual strength, gain insight, and develop effective ways of coping with life and relationships.

I specialize in working with couples & adults who have experienced the deep pain of complex PTSD & the profound impact it has had on their emotional well-being & relationships. If you have a strong desire to feel more connected with yourself & your partner but feel held back by the trauma you've experienced, or maybe struggling with patterns of self-sabotage, difficulty trusting others, or feeling stuck in your past experiences, I am here to help. My goal is to empower you to break free from the shackles of your trauma, heal & develop the skills to create a safe fulfilling, meaningful life. My approach is integrative & comprehensive

Kudos to you! It takes such strength to acknowledge and respond to your needs and therapy is an incredibly effective way of gaining insight to promote self growth and achieve happiness. Our behaviors and day to day interactions with the world and the people in it, as well as how we feel about it, are based on a series of different parts; our thoughts, our experiences and our life events. My aim is to help you navigate difficult events, repair unhealthy interactions and get to the root of the issue; reframing unproductive thoughts and negative experiences so it is no longer hindering and you can become a better you.

I am a licensed community-based clinical social worker with advanced training in psychodynamic psychotherapy. I received my masters from Stony Brook University and work with children, adolescents, and adults. I also have experience and clinical training in CBT, DBT, interpersonal therapy, and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) with a focus on treating depression, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, loss, and personality disorders. I focus on helping improve emotion regulation difficulties, interpersonal problems and behavioral dysregulation.

I work with clients who recognize the importance of their mental and emotional well-being and are motivated to actively engage in the therapeutic process. They may experience challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions. They seek a safe and non-judgmental space to explore their emotions, gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Their goals include finding inner peace, enhancing self-awareness, improving relationships, and fostering personal growth. They desire to overcome obstacles, cultivate resilience, and create a fulfilling and meaningful life.

Are you looking to deepen your life experiences and live a more authentic life? Perhaps be relieved of the burdens your past trauma's carry? I can help. Seeking support is a brave and courageous decision. I am so happy you are here. I work with adults who are struggling with body image issues, disordered eating/eating disorders, ADHD (or presumed ADHD), depression, and grief/loss. A specialty of mine is working with people who live in larger size bodies per American beauty standards using a HAES (health at every size) approach. I truly believe you deserve to feel connected with yourself, your body, your community, and this earth.
