Does it feel like your worries and fears prevent you from living the life you want to live? Do you find it difficult to be present because you are either worrying about the future or ruminating about the past? If you want to learn how to move forward when you feel stuck in your head, you have come to the right place, and I am so excited that you are here. I help clients ditch worry, rumination, and unhelpful habits for a more mindful, motivated, and compassionate way of being.
My approach is founded on principles from mindfulness-based and compassion-based cognitive behavioral therapies (CFT, ACT, and DBT). We’ll work together to create the tools you need to manage stress and difficult emotions. Through our work, you’ll explore what’s most important to you and use your new tools to create a life of freedom, growth, and meaning.
I work with clients who struggle with anxiety and mood. I’m a Health at Every Size-aligned therapist and help clients with body image concerns to accept and love their bodies and practice intuitive eating. If my approach resonates with you, I’d love to hear from you!

Some people describe looking for a therapist to be like shopping for shoes- there’s no one size fits all! Part of what I love so much about my role is that this sentiment really is true, that there is no one formula to match all people. It is my goal to see the full you and to provide what you uniquely need as the dynamic human that you are. I honor your personal values, past experiences and place in the world. Above all, I prioritize a feeling of relational safety, and I don’t subscribe to the idea that therapy needs to be uncomfortable or overwhelming; I care about your limits and boundaries and I trust your intuition.
I have a special interest in supporting people in mourning and grief, to find life that exists within loss. This includes grief not only related to death and dying, but also complicated grief, transition of identity or position in life, change in relationships, and the many ways we might feel loss from what or who is significant to us.
Inspired by my work as an artist, I see my approach as though a mosaic. I consider psychodynamic and relational models alongside somatic and mindfulness-based CBTs, to find the best fit for you. I can help you find meaning in your life to increase your feelings of peace and vitality. You are worth this expansion, and I’d be honored to join you!

Do you feel disconnected from your authentic self? Are you having trouble being in the present moment? Do you find it difficult to stay grounded and responsive to your changing needs?
It can be overwhelming to articulate or even know what is best for us in general and certainly during times of transition, stress, and/or crisis. Knowing what the next best right action for you when you’re uncertain or unsteady can feel elusive and terrifying.
I believe that you have everything you need to to succeed; I am here to help you access it. I work to guide clients in validating their experiences and expressing their feelings safely without victimization. Through personalized insight and psychoeducation, we work as a team in developing tools of self-regulation to empower and (re)establish a feeling of security and trust within the body and mind so you can feel confident in your next steps.
As a Pilates instructor in addition to being a social worker, I have substantial experience and understanding of the mind-body connection and how daily life, stress, trauma and injury impacts both. During our session we will focus on mindfully staying connected to the body during big emotions or sensations, strengthen executive functioning skills, and develop your authentic voice while working towards your goals.
My approach is holistic, strengths based and mindfully driven, based in trauma-informed somatic work. I draw primarily from the evidence-based practices of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to promote empowerment. I work with individuals across the age span, as well as couples and families. I look forward to the opportunity to connect and partner with you on your pursuit of discovery and self-care.

Have you been feeling down or anxious? Started using alcohol and/or other substances more than usual? Questioning certain aspects of your identity? Therapy is designed to help address these issues and more. Our work together would provide a space to work on how you think, feel, and behave. It would help bring cravings and drug use back under control. Above all, it would help you better understand who you are as a whole person. I work with a variety of populations including adolescents, those with mood and anxiety issues, active substance users, LGBTQ+, people of color, and those with identity issues. I am licensed to provide therapy in both New York and New Jersey.
I utilize eclectic tools rooted in social justice to customize therapy to your needs. My methods in therapy include reducing harm of risky behaviors, eliciting change through acceptance, and developing compassion towards oneself. Additional methods include ACT, CBT, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic approaches among others.

Are you feeling stuck in your pursuit of goals, burdened by past traumas, or overwhelmed by the stressors in your life? It can be challenging to find a therapist who truly understands your unique needs. However, I am here to offer the support you need on your therapeutic journey toward self-acceptance and personal growth.
I believe in a strength-based approach that empowers individuals to recognize and utilize their strengths to overcome challenges. Moreover, I am passionate about promoting anti-racism and social justice, and I incorporate a feminist lens in my work. By addressing these important issues, I aim to provide support and guidance as you navigate your path.
Together, we will explore various tools and techniques tailored specifically to you, drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. My areas of expertise include working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, addressing sex-based/intimacy concerns, and helping individuals navigate self-esteem and relationship issues. I am available for both individual and couples therapy, providing a safe and supportive space for you to explore your concerns.
