Welcome, and congratulations on taking that first step in putting yourself first. Whether you are looking to develop tangible coping skills to control your anxiety, manage your depression, process trauma, integrate a painful loss, or delve into understanding your attachment style in relationships; I view our treatment as a means to promote greater self-understanding. My goal is simple, meet my clients where they are at, and promote flourishing. We are all resilient, the key is mastering the techniques to unlock that resilience and strength.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and owner at North Star Wellness & Therapy PC. I received my training at Columbia University. I work with college students, young adults, perinatal and adult populations. Together, through evidence-based practice, we will develop a comprehensive and meaningful treatment plan to meet your personal or professional goals.
Should you feel my therapeutic style may be the right fit for you, please feel free to reach out for a consultation. I look forward to connecting with you.
