If you are struggling with anxiety, panic attacks, an eating disorder, PTSD or past trauma, perfectionism, challenging life transitions or creative blocks, please know that healing is possible. My hope is to offer you support through these challenges, emotional struggles, and any anxious thoughts and feeling that are causing distress and impacting your ability to heal and move forward.

Like many others who have come to PT's therapist locator, you're likely anxious, depressed, and stressed: anxious over an unsatisfying social life, depressed by family members who intrude too much or fail to be there for you at all, stressed in your search for a loving partner.

My style is active, non-judgemental, supportive and collaborative . I believe that emotional injuries from the past live in the present, effecting how we relate and react to people and events throughout life. Psychotherapy has the potential to help heal past wounds and impart the insight needed to change how one views oneself and one's own participation in conflicts and problems. I am an empathic listener and strive to help clients grow in all aspects of life.

My past experience includes working at Mount Sinai Hospital with young adults, adolescents and parents, and Metropolitan Center for Mental Health with people of all ages and backgrounds.

I help people to identify and overcome the issues that are preventing them from achieving what they want in life. My clients are highly functioning men and women who are dealing with the stressors of modern day existence, ie relationship issues, life transitions, depression and anxiety. It can often be a difficult task to balance interpersonal relationships (family, friends, dating, committed relationships) with life's expectations. Common stressors can also cause life crisis. For example, figuring out your career path, changing careers, adjusting to a new living or financial situation, dealing with chronic illness or the loss of a loved one.

Many individuals go through periods of their life where they are searching for a deeper, more meaningful understanding of who they are as a person. I enjoy working with clients who are navigating this phase of life as it can be so rewarding to see the transformational changes that my clients make.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community and a queer therapist, I believe that therapy is different for every individual. My passion for understanding people and relationships has always been driven by curiosity. I primarily work with LGBTQ+ individuals and couples and have experience working with survivors of childhood sexual abuse. As a career changer, my previous career in advertising and fashion informs my extensive experience working with clients in the performing arts and other creative fields.

Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes it can get you down and leave you in a space that is unfamiliar, or even scary. But life can also be brilliant, and I think the way to reach that point is to explore yourself and who you are. I aim to work with clients who are ready to take that step into living the lives that they want to; who are ready to face challenges that others, or even themselves, said they couldn’t get through. Therapy is about collaboration and I work from a person-centered approach, meaning, you set the tone and I'm here to support and offer guidance that align with you, your needs, and your goals.
