Therapy is often about the simple but powerful act of showing up for yourself. If you’re ready to explore your thoughts, emotions, and relationships in a safe, supportive space, I’m here to guide you. I am trained at Teachers College, Columbia University, and I specialize in helping young adults manage stress, build self-confidence, and navigate relationships. I also support clients through challenges such as identity development, anxiety, self-criticism, body image concerns, life transitions, and healing from past experiences. Together, we work to approach these experiences with clarity and balance.
My approach is holistic and relational: I meet you where you are, offering curiosity, honesty, and a nonjudgmental presence to gently notice patterns and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others. In session, I integrate CBT, DBT, and inner-child work to shift unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping skills, and support deeper healing.
Clients often share with me that they leave sessions feeling heard, lighter, and less alone. When you feel ready to take that first step, I would be honored to hold space with you on your journey.
