I am a licensed trauma therapist and I provide teletherapy to individuals in New York, Texas, and Maryland. My specialty is developing distress tolerance, or making stress feel less overwhelming. I work with clients aged 5-18, 18+ as individuals and/or families.
Stress exists as a necessary part of the human experience. For some, this experience has been more dangerous, disruptive, or overwhelming. In our sessions, I’ll provide the opportunity for you to reconnect with a sense of safety to move into a fuller life.
I practice from a combination of therapy models. I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as the basis for skill building. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy is a guide for regulating the nervous system. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) builds a deeper connection to our authentic goals.

For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?
Therapy doesn't have to be painful or scary. This is a process where you build a relationship with a provider who safely opens doors for you to learn more about yourself. If you think you could benefit from changing thoughts, behaviors, or feelings, then therapy could be a great fit for you!
What does a typical session with you tend to look like?
I like to balance process with practice. This means we talk about you and review skills to make your stress less overwhelming. In a typical session, we will review updates on your week and current areas of difficulty. I make effort to make the discussion as safe and empowering as possible. As we get closer to the end of the session, we may set a goal or assign homework so you can bring the work into your life.
How can you provide care remotely?
Remote therapy has the same benefits and outcomes as in-person therapy, which makes it just as useful a tool. Remote therapy provides the convenience of not needing to commute to an office and provides more accessible care. I have been providing remote therapy since March 2020 with success.
What's your experience with clients with stress?
Stress is as human as breathing, but for many, stress is overwhelming and impossible to cope with. I help individuals learn about their stress and to manage the symptoms as they come up in their body, brain, and behavior. Overtime, stress becomes more manageable and has a smaller impact on life.
