Affinity Health Plan Therapists in New York, NY

I am a licensed counselor working primarily with adults and millennials who are struggling with racing thoughts, anxiety, depression, and histories of physical, emotional, and verbal abuse. I help clients navigate their trauma, disentangle their thoughts, build resilience, learn to cope with their stressors, improve their self-esteem, and make life transitions. Our work together will teach you new coping skills, help you change your thinking and how you relate to others, and resolve any past traumatic experiences that might leave you feeling stagnant, overwhelmed, or less connected to yourself and others.

I believe that therapy is for all, and that anyone can achieve recovery to restore emotional health and balance in their lives.

Seeking therapy is a courageous act of self-care, and I aim to honor your bravery in a safe, warm, and affirming environment. I tend to work with teens and emerging adults navigating anxiety, negative body image, complex family dynamics, and the impact of trauma and difficult childhood events. Often, my clients’ issues and experiences lead to coping mechanisms that impede health: negative self-talk, disordered eating, compulsive behaviors, and blurry family boundaries. Our work will approach these behaviors with compassion and curiosity, and offer you a non judgemental space to work toward a more fulfilling and embodied life.

My goal is to help guide you through challenging life transitions with empathy and compassion. Past events in our lives are part of our story, but they are not the entire story and they do not define us. My practice focuses on honoring the life that has shaped you, and empowering you to use those formative incidents to understand and grow into your authentic self. Therapy is a journey that we can take together, navigating the challenges in a collaborative way.
