Therapy for adults, adolescents, and families

Offering virtual services to residents of NY and all PSYPACT participating states

Helping you cultivate a more aligned, connected, and cognizant life.

Perhaps you’ve been noticing an increase in anxiety or situational stressors for some time, or you’re managing a transition in your professional or personal life and need a warm, non-judgmental space to process the complex emotions showing up.

Maybe you’re navigating these feelings for the first time, or you’ve noticed that they are interfering significantly with your pursuits or relationships. You’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck and seeking more options for how to respond and move through the current barriers… You’ve come to the right place.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, perfectionism, interpersonal and communication challenges, eating disorders.

I predominantly work with adolescents, young adults, and working professionals looking to explore issues related to motivation, self-esteem, and attachment/ trauma.

I’m experienced at helping clients increase awareness of unhealthy relationships to food and/or substances and working on cultivating a more positive self-image.

Clinical Work

Throughout my training and professional practice, I worked with teens, young adults, and adults across diverse racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I’ve worked across various treatment settings and levels of care, including inpatient treatment and outpatient mental health clinics. Post-licensure, I’ve worked in private practice in NYC, until moving to Sarasota, FL, where I currently reside.
