Finding a safe space where you can let go of worry about being judged or accepted is hard. I hope to provide you the ease, comfort, and safety in the virtual therapy room you've been seeking. I am a licensed psychotherapist and certified yoga instructor with a virtual private practice based in New York State. I specialize in LGBTQIA+ matters, women's obstacles, and race and identity concerns. My work entails deconstructing white supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism, and colonization as it relates to your identity. I offer a unique and holistic approach to therapy by integrating yoga and meditation into your experience. Each session with me begins with a personalized yoga practice, transitions to talk therapy, and closes with a guided meditation. As a compassion-focused therapist, I hope to help you develop a compassionate self while building hard skills you can use in your day to day.
