Struggling with anxiety, depression, or the relentless waves of life? Whether you’re facing your own challenges with substance use, feeling the ripple effects of a loved one’s addiction, or mourning the loss of someone to addiction, your pain is real—and it’s understood here. With over a decade of experience supporting adults through life’s most difficult moments, I offer not just expertise, but a safe, compassionate space where your story is honored and your healing matters.
My approach is as unique as you are. I blend motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic techniques, and person-centered methods to meet your individual needs. Working with adults aged 18 and up, I empower you to cultivate balance, heal from within, and transform challenges into opportunities for growth.
Taking the first step is often the hardest, and I’m so proud of you for being here. You don’t have to face this alone—you’ve already begun the journey. I offer tele-health services in Connecticut and New York and will walk beside you on your path to wellness. To schedule your free consultation, reach out by phone, email, or book directly on my website.
