“I feel like my mind never slows down or shuts off.” “Suddenly I don’t feel like I know who I am anymore.” “I feel alone even though I’m surrounded by people.” If one or several of the above thoughts have crossed your mind, you are not alone. My goal is to create a safe, open, and supportive space, where we can find solutions together. In our therapy sessions, we will find the source of your stress, low moods, or feelings of hopelessness. Then, we will work together to find small and manageab...

I will support you to create your own definition of thriving, and to take concrete, doable action steps towards living a life that feels deep...
My journey into the world of mental health services has come through my own struggles with adoption trauma, addiction, and long-term depression. Such conditions have made me an avid researcher of the human mind and heart, and a passionate experimenter of the means by which we transform both. This research and experimentation has (thankfully) fine-tuned my relationship skills and made me fluent in many languages of internal exploration. The most impactful of all of these have been the practic...

I work with teen and adult individuals from a humanistic, somatic, mindfulness based perspective. It is my belief that the therapeutic relationship itself is a guiding force in the healing process and an essential component for clients to more deeply access themselves. In our time together, we will increase awareness around your relationship to self, relationship patterns with others, how you work to notice and process feelings, how you relate to past wounds and trauma and how you regulate throu...
Let’s be real. These have been dark times, and uncertainty still abounds. Old wounds may be coming to the surface, and the thought of facing them may feel downright terrifying……it is terrifying. I believe that these moments are opportunities for us to learn, accept, and grow in our capacity to be Compassionate with ourselves, and with one another. This is how Transformational Healing occurs. If you are struggling wi...

Talking to someone who can and does understand, helps. And it can help even further if your therapist can guide you into deeper understandings of what you are going through and how you are going through it. Some ways of dealing are more optimal than other. My job is to enable you to see the many paths available to you and strengthen your courage to make your best and most conscious choices....
One of the greatest gifts I've received in my 19+ years of private practice, has been to witness individuals as they move towards healing, and discover a more fulfilling, whole life. The hold an eating disorder, anxiety or trauma can have on a life is profound. To watch the grip loosen, and healing emerge, is very moving. I enjoy learning, and collecting new tools and skills to help my clients. After I obtained my MSW from New York University's School of Social Work, I completed postgradu...

Life presents many transitions—some anticipated, some unexpected—and each comes with its own challenges. Whether these transitions involve major life events like pregnancy, relationships, and parenthood, or enduring struggles such as anxiety, depression, and trauma, I aim to create a safe and supportive space where my clients can explore and navigate these difficulties. I believe in every individual's capacity for growth and self-discovery. I value the unique stories and perspectives of each cl...

I provide a safe space in therapy for you to show up fully, just as you are. I support you in creating space to dismantle the various known and unknown obstacles blocking you from embodying your TRUE self. I believe you already have what it takes to heal and thrive, but you just need the right environment and community support to unravel and relearn. I have recently expanded to supporting adults who are seeking healing by means of EMDR & Internal Family Systems (IFS). Since 2012, I have pri...

As a neurodivergent person, moving through a world built for neurotypical people can be an overwhelming and disempowering experience. When social pressure or trauma leads you to mask who you really are, it can lead to depression, anxiety, stress, and/or a sense of not inhabiting or controlling your own body. Sometimes, the more you try to fit in, the more alienated you become from yourself and those around you. As a highly sensitive autistic woman, I am passionate about supporting neurodiverg...
