Grief is the price we pay for loving deeply and having to let go. It can result from the death of a loved one, end of a relationship, or the loss of a job, home or former identity. Grief can feel simultaneously empty, yet heavy. It can cause confusion of how to go on living a "normal" life. It can also feel like no one else could possibly understand. After a decade of working alongside individuals who were dying, providing counseling to care givers and loved ones, I understand the significant pain and trauma of grieving. I also know how to help in healing and restoring hope.

Are you in the midst of a life transition? Do you have trouble putting words to your feelings or feel like it’s hard to take up space? Are you navigating romantic relationships and having difficulty setting boundaries? I work with people who are eager to learn more about themselves but struggle to voice their needs and have learned to keep themselves connected by over-giving. Together, we work towards recognizing internalized messages from families and culture at large in order to help you locate your authentic voice and quiet the noise from outside.

Are you struggling in relationships or with overwhelming feelings? Do you feel stuck or disconnected? Do you feel like an important part of yourself has been quieted or hidden? I believe relationships are the source of healing. In my years as a therapist I have seen how being in the caring presence of another can provide relief and allow needed change to unfold. Feelings and experiences that feel nearly impossible to bear alone can be held with another.

Life is complicated, and at times, it can feel overwhelming, lonely, or unfulfilling. Pain, grief, hopelessness, past traumas and difficult relationships can seem like too much to bear. While opening up to healing can be daunting and feel vulnerable, it is possible to open up new space to follow a more meaningful, connected path. My 10+ years of experience as a social worker and a clinician in NYC has lead me to believe that healing is possible for everyone. There is help. You don’t have to do it alone. As a therapist and a human I work from a place of openness, curiosity, compassion and introspection.

Are you caught between competing identities, beliefs, and desires? Are you struggling to heal from trauma, overcome despair, or maintain boundaries? Do you find yourself socially or politically misunderstood by those around you? Do you repeat the same unsatisfying patterns in work, friendship, and relationships? Together, we can explore all this in a curious, collaborative, non-judgmental way. All feelings and beliefs are welcome, no matter how confusing or contradictory they may seem at first. I believe that the best therapy is affirming yet challenging, and built on trust, joy, and humor. It's never too late to try.

Understanding who we are as individuals and what has led us to this point in our lives is an important part of each person’s journey. Often, we go through the motions of our daily routines without stopping to consider what we actually feel or how we want to live. Engaging in therapy allows you the space to pause in full awareness of yourself and take a breath. It is a space for witnessing yourself, for speaking your truth, for recognizing your needs and for honoring your journey up to this point.
