I work with a diverse range of clientele including young adults, those with Serious and Persistent Mental Illnesses, eating disorders, anxiety, OCD, personality disorders, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. I’ve worked for many years with under-resourced populations in New York City which has shaped my worldview and approach to therapy. My work has taught me to be an optimist and I've witnessed first-hand incredible growth and resiliency in those with whom I've worked with. I typically take a more modern approach to therapy and am non-judgmental, supportive, direct, and genuine.

Anxiety issues that I treat often in my practice are fears about judgments from others, fears about health, rumination, OCD, panic, phobias and overall stress.
Welcome! I am an Anxiety Specialist and ADHD coach working with adults living in California and New York. Individuals in my practice with ADHD tend to struggle with procrastination and task completion across the board (e.g. work, home, friends, relationships, self-care, etc.), and thus tend to feel like they are not functioning as an "adult.” Things that may feel simple to other people are often not simple at all for people with ADHD, and this can be a huge source of shame. In my practice you will not be judged an ounce for that.

I treat anxiety and depression through examining deep-rooted inner conflicts/shame/guilt/childhood trauma and unconscious cognitive distortions while reshaping repetitive/obsessive coping mechanisms that manifest in perpetuating self esteem, career, and relationship difficulties.
I work with unique individuals who are seemingly successful and happy but deep inside feel lost, alone, even if they are in a relationship, and often feel like they don't belong or struggle to be present in life. With expertise gathered from years of experience across borders, time zones and cultures, I dive alongside men and women into the deep ocean of darkness— including all types of diversity, in-between/intersecting identities, worldwide travelers, high-achieving/performing and creative people. I am Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) certified and was formerly a clinical supervisor and psychologist at Johns Hopkins University.

I specialize in treating anxiety, panic, stress, OCD, relationship challenges, and transitions. Are your thoughts and behaviors self-defeating at times, blocking you from what you really want in life? We all see the world through different lenses, which are formed and strengthened by our genes, the messages we received growing up, and our accumulated experiences. Sometimes this lens can become distorted, causing us to perceive and interact with the world in unhelpful ways. Certain thinking and behavioral patterns may get in the way of relationships with others, with work, and with ourselves.
