I am licensed in New York with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I am trained in Rational Emotive Cognitive Behavior Therapy (by the Albert Ellis Institute of New York), EMDR (by EMDRIE) and my practice also includes interventions from Gestalt, DBT, Internal Family Systems, and other therapy approaches. I believe that when addressing fears and anxieties, the most effective approach is to work toward facing those fears a little bit at a time with tenderness, patience, acceptance, and imagination. I often see clients work through their problems and experience relief from symptoms after getting to the bottom of their core fear. In my practice, I also see a lot of individuals with perfectionistic styles, traumatic backgrounds, and self-neglect, that result in procrastination or overwork, burnout, and self-blame. I am here to support and empower you to change these symptoms by shifting to flexible attitudes and beliefs, which frees up room for problem-solving and behavior change.

It takes strength to seek help. My goal is to build a safe, non-judgmental environment, where we can explore and find insight together. In therapy, I enjoy working with clients to explore their inner worlds to build self resiliency. Mostly, I work with adults and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression and/or dealing with trauma. During our sessions, I take a mind-body approach where we collaborate investigating factors keeping you from success. Using a mix of treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR and other meditation / mindfulness-based treatments, we’ll explore how to reach your goals.

Change takes courage, and seeking help is a powerful sign of strength. If you're feeling overwhelmed, struggling with sleep, or navigating foggy days, know that you don’t have to face it alone.
