Does your chest feel heavy? Or maybe you feel foggy and unclear. Life ebbs and flows and sometimes having extra support is exactly what you may need especially when dealing with overwhelm, anxiety or a life transition. As a therapist, I work to empower my clients to decrease anxiety, increase self-esteem, and ultimately help you to find more clarity and fulfillment. Whether you are looking for therapy for yourself or for your child/teen, we can get to the root of the issue. Together we can learn and practice coping skills to begin to feel more regulated, uncover and replace old patterns, and learn to process big emotions.

I believe that we are primarily social beings and that our relationships, past and present, continuously impact our growth as individuals. Humans are highly resilient, and we tend to persevere through negative experiences. However, certain relationships can have long-lasting negative consequences on how we see ourselves and engage with the people in our lives. When this happens, people often find themselves in a dysfunctional and frustrating pattern of maladaptive thinking and behavior that results in persistent interpersonal struggles.

I help people because I make it possible for them to bring their issues and concerns into the therapy session in order to resolve these problems in the treatment. Whatever we accomplish in this task carries over to the client's outside life and they become more successful. I am able to do this because of my many years of supervision with some of the top therapists in the New York area. I also train other therapists and I was cited as a supervisor of excellence by the California Psychological Association.

After starting my own family I became passionate about supporting sensitive, people-pleasing women who are trying to maintain a healthy work/life balance and still leave room for self-care and boundary management. My expertise lies in helping women debunk harmful messages from society that keep us trapped in perfectionism and comparison. The focus of my work with clients centers around exploring and setting goals, assertive communication training and self-esteem building. I’m on a mission to help my clients feel empowered and connected to their authentic selves.

Your life is an ongoing journey and it's time to make yourself a priority. Are you not living the life you dreamed of? Or do you often feel frustrated that your relationships, home life, and career are less than satisfying? Have you ever wondered what is stopping you from feeling happier, more confident, and in control of your future? We live in a society so busy that we can barely hear ourselves think. Its rare that anyone feels truly heard and listened to. I can help you to learn to lead a more authentic, self-actualizing life that works for you. Perhaps you're looking to take steps towards healing, but are unsure where to start.
