I specialize in adults experiencing anxiety and depression, and I hold a certification in career counseling to help at the college level. Although I am now Florida-based, I am still a New Yorker at heart. I enjoy reading mysteries, collecting seashells, & walking my dog Sadie.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, or grief? A challenging relationship, loss of a sense of self, or trauma that affects your life, relationships, or ability to function at home or at work?

I specialize in working with women and girls (kids and teens) because there is nothing more fulfilling than seeing healing take place in a woman or girl’s heart. Whether I am working with a woman crushed by years of trauma, or a seemingly out-of-control teenage girl, or a child suffering from sadness or anxiety, I find such joy in creating sacred space to do meaningful work. I find this work even more rich and effective when I’m able to integrate your spiritual paradigm.

I believe it is important that the sessions be tailored to the client's needs and that the client is part of the decisions in their treatment.

Do you or someone you love have cancer? This isn't the life you planned for. Every priority you had changed in an instant. Perhaps you are feeling a flood of shock, sadness, fear, anger, confusion, anxiety, and depression. It is hard to talk with friends and family members. Many just don't understand what you're going through. You feel you need to be strong all the time - to guard everyone from how you really feel. You don't know what to do. Sadly, friends drift away. Scans, biopsies, labs, and treatments are relentless, and you fear it may come back one day.

I believe that every human being has the ability to be the best person they can be. Everyone struggles at different times in life, some unfortunately, more than others complicated by circumstances, situations and relationships. I work with the understanding that we get stuck around negative emotions that we tend to avoid, as they are uncomfortable, unwanted and painful. I help people explore what their underlying core emotional issues are and help them clarify how they are avoiding them, inviting them to face these uncomfortable emotional experiences and move toward them, stretching their comfort zone.
