We provide holistic, compassionate care for adolescents and adults through individual, couples and group therapy.     

I am a New York City-based psychotherapist available for in person and online therapy. My approach incorporates awareness-building, cultivating self-compassion, and providing a supportive space to empower individuals to find greater wellbeing and fulfillment in their lives. I work actively and collaboratively.

I am passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community. As a former educator, I have extensive experience working with young people and specialize in issues related to adolescence, young adulthood, coming out, queer identities, perfectionism, self-image and learning disabilities.

I am a holistic, solution-focused psychotherapist based in New York City. I practice through a social justice, trauma-informed and Health at Every Size (HAES) lens. I create a therapeutic space that is grounded in empathy, collaboration, healing and insight.

"I believe that holistic therapy integrates the mind and body, the cognitive and the somatic. I also believe that with compassion and curiosity, clients can both honor and understand their coping mechanisms. I draw from a variety of techniques, including meditation and mindfulness practices. I believe that the client is a powerful and resourceful agent of change. As a practicing artist and former educator, I draw from the power of creative exploration to gain insight into our subconscious expressions.

My work draws from elements of art and narrative therapy, CBT, DBT, self-compassion, mindfulness practices and radical acceptance."

For GBTQ+ identified participants. Our goal for this group is to approach issues of self-image as a gateway to deeper understandings of our identities and lived experience. This may include, but is not limited to, topics such as body dysmorphia, gender expression, shame, family dynamics and race.

This interactive and interpersonal group will promote improved self-image, relationships, communication, and coping skills. 

This 6-week group begins Thursday, January 12 at 6:30pm via Zoom.

"I specialize in working with adults of all identities and have a particular passion for working with those managing anxiety, depression, eating disorders/disordered eating, body image, relationship issues, trauma/inner wounds, illness, gender and sexuality. 

I use EMDR, CBT, IFS, CFT, ACT, Mindfulness, Mind-Body Therapy, humanistic and psychodynamic therapies.

​All bodies and all identities within them are welcome and affirmed here."
