Hello, I am a psychotherapist licensed to practice in New York State. I enjoy being a therapist and helping people to live better lives.

I've worked in various roles throughout my life. I started as a performing artist. I grew and learned a lot from that experience -- as I have from all of my roles -- but wanted to explore other interests. That included corporate management and leadership roles for 18+ years and going to graduate school. Ultimately I've landed on my feet in a field that truly fits my skills, my passion and what feels like a calling. I believe my varied background gives me an edge in understanding a lot of different life paths. I offer that to my patients.

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a broad range of experience in psychiatry throughout the lifespan. I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, concerning alcohol use, and trauma/PTSD unleash themselves from the harmful habits and narratives that have controlled their mental health, discover self-acceptance, and recognize their true value and potential. I provide a safe space for deep healing and life-changing care that includes medication, lifestyle interventions, sleep optimization, mindfulness, and more. Together, we will work to develop a treatment plan that will support your overall wellbeing. Our work will be to integrate medication if indicated, as well as personalized holistic and integrative strategies and coaching. I am located in Rochester, NY, and I am able to meet with clients both virtually and in person. ***I offer a free 15-minute telehealth consultation to help patients determine whether my services are a good fit for them.***

I’ve been passionate about working with individuals for over 25 years. I know that empathy and compassion are the key to building strong therapeutic relationships. 

Especially for some of the most successful among us, we can hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance in all areas. Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. For so many, an achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work with my clients to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined. My approach is solution-focused and uses elements of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy to identify and build on your strengths. As a Substance Abuse Specialist, I help individuals including young adults transform their relationships with substances and behaviors that feel out of control. Therapy should be a process that makes us feel free to be fully ourselves. To heal and enliven us to be authentically, beautifully, and powerfully exactly who we are, unbound by what has in the past, held us back. Let's work together to find strength, meaning, healing, and freedom so you can define your own path. It's time to be free and come alive again. Let’s do it together.
