I am passionate about helping people discover their inner strength and resilience. With a master's in social work from New York University and as licensed social worker since 2005, I've had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds in various settings, including non-profits, LGBT organizations, and schools. My therapeutic approach blends a strengths-based and psychodynamic perspective with cognitive-behavioral techniques allowing me to tailor our sessions to your unique needs and aspirations. Whether you're facing challenges, fraught relationships, seeking personal growth, or simply navigating life's transitions, my goal is to provide a supportive space where you can explore, learn, and thrive. Together, we'll work towards cultivating a sense of ease and confidence as you're on your path forward. I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I am an ANCC Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and PNCB Board Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in psychiatric diagnosis, medication management, psychotherapy and holistic interventions for children, adolescents, and young adults with mental health concerns. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA, a Master’s degree in Nursing from Yale University and a Post-Master’s Certificate from Hunter College with a specialty in Psychiatric Mental Health. My background includes working in Community Health and Outpatient practices. I am strongly committed to working with adolescents and young adults and I have over 15 years of experience with a wide range of common issues like stress, anxiety, depression, and attention deficit (Attention Deficit Disorder/ADHD), amongst others. I also provide care with: relationship difficulties or family or other interpersonal challenges; stresses at work or school; grief or loss; or a tricky transition. As a dually certified provider, my treatment approach respects the client as a whole and I frequently recommend treatment interventions including the use of psychotropic medication, but also place emphasis on other important domains of wellbeing, including nutrition, exercise, interpersonal and familial relationships, and psychotherapy. In my practice, I will work with you to develop an individualized treatment plan which may include therapeutic strategies, medication management, or lifestyle changes. My clinical approach is based on the clinical and developmental needs of each client and is tailored to their individual strengths. I integrate the neurobiological understanding of mental health with an emphasis on the nursing model, which focuses on patient education, advocacy, and a holistic approach of maintaining overall wellness.

I’m a seasoned therapist who’s passionate about helping people navigate trauma, life transitions, and everyday challenges. I aim to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and safe to explore your experiences. Together, we’ll work at your pace to build understanding, coping skills, and lasting growth. You're the expert on your own lived experiences! We’ll work together to understand your story, build on your strengths, and find ways to bring more balance and peace into your life. My approach combines trauma-focused CBT, EMDR, psychodynamic insight, and a systems lens to help you heal and move forward. Our first session is about getting to know you, answering your questions, and beginning the work toward healing at a pace that feels comfortable. We’ll explore what brings you to therapy, discuss your goals, and start creating a supportive space for growth and healing.

You're not meant to figure everything out alone. Whether you're navigating the pain of grief, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, facing relationship challenges, or struggling with life transitions, I provide a safe, supportive space to explore your experiences and move toward healing and clarity.I use a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to therapy. I primarily work from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) framework, which helps clients recognize and shift unhelpful patterns in their thoughts and behaviors. Together, we identify the root of your challenges, build coping skills, and develop strategies for lasting change. I integrate techniques tailored to your needs—whether you're working through loss, adjusting to a major life change, managing stress or emotional fatigue, or seeking deeper self-awareness in your relationships.

Therapy can deepen your capacity for love, trust, and connection — with yourself and with others. I’ve seen it ease depression, anxiety, and shame; strengthen self-esteem; and help people become more resilient during life’s ups and downs. Most of all, it can bring forward a truer, more authentic self. Therapy is a collaborative process. You speak, and I listen closely — for what’s said and what lies beneath the surface — helping you see what may be getting in the way of a more fulfilling life. As Carl Rogers wrote: “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” I’ve found that to be true. Patients find it helpful to explore childhood, memories that bubble up, dreams, feelings, fears, wishes — whatever arises. Our aim is an understanding of your inner world that leads to meaningful action & choice. With couples, I help you listen more clearly & break entrenched patterns. Everyone longs to be seen and heard & I'll help you arrive at that place. As a therapist and writer, I’m inspired to help each patient take hold of their narrative — understanding where they’ve come from & where they’d like to go. As we get to know one another, I tailor my style to your personality and needs. Your feedback is always encouraged. Email me to schedule a consultation & see if we’re a good fit.

Many of my clients are young adults, college students, graduate students, and working professionals who appear successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic stress, burnout, low motivation, self-doubt, or difficulty navigating life transitions. Together, we identify the patterns keeping them stuck, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and goal-oriented, helping clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and confidence in themselves and their future. I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress management, motivation, and self-esteem. Drawing from DBT, mindfulness-based practices, and Adlerian therapy, I help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing practical tools for everyday life. My goal as a therapist is to create a space where you can exhale, a place where you don’t have to hold everything together. Healing begins with compassion and connection, and real change happens when we feel understood without judgment. I don’t see my clients as diagnoses or problems to be fixed, but as whole people with complex stories.

Are you overwhelmed with feeling anxious or sad? Having trouble adjusting to recent changes in your life? You’re in the right place.

During the first several sessions, I will help you to identify your goals while reflecting on your personal strengths that have helped you to get you to today. I want you to remember that you have survived every day before this one and that you are resilient. We work towards your goals with a speed that is comfortable for you, checking in on your progress throughout. I incorporate aspects of mindfulness to help you to cope and to heal while providing psychoeducation to help you to better understand your emotions and to gain insight into your experiences. I often give ‘homework’ to help to build new coping skills and to improve communication styles. Everything we will work on will be together, so I will always be transparent and you will always have a voice.

I truly believe in the healing that results from having a trusting and nurturing space to explore insights, desires, strengths, and challenges. I am LGBTQIA+ and non-monogamy affirming, and have experience in helping people through the coming out process. I also help people who are dealing with life transitions, anxiety, depression, and processing trauma. During sessions, I use an approach called Internal Family Systems (IFS), which will help you understand symptoms and process trauma at a pace that feels right for you. Through this lens, I will help you connect with your inner wisdom, self-compassion, and clarity. I will also help you develop a felt sense of how emotions show up in your body, and how you can use this connection towards symptom relief. The search for a therapist can be stressful and tiring, but I encourage you to stay connected to yourself as you get a sense of who might be a good fit - even if it takes a few tries!

Let’s be honest, going to therapy can be a little intimidating. I know what you are thinking, “what would speaking to a shrink do for me? I have so much on my mind, it will take more than a few sessions to unleash everything.” Well…I got time AND passion. I believe that as human beings living in our present society, we are conditioned to put our needs aside and we frequently forget how to take care of ourselves. As your therapist, I am strongly devoted to assisting you in tackling life challenges, managing problems, and coming out stronger than ever because YOU are capable. My approach to therapy is to use a strength based perspective, CBT and create an unapologetic space for my client. I want my client to feel they don't need to sugar coat anything in sessions because I truly believe transparency will open up my client's full potential to self-discovery and personal growth. I know taking this next step is scary AND brave. Imagine yourself opening up to possibilities you only dreamt of and finally being in control over your life and happiness. Let's work together to build that dream by tackling those negative thought distortions and create new perspectives in order to create your new reality.
