What's the bottom line in therapy? To help a client to take control of his or her own life. As an advanced level, PhD clinical social worker, (Columbia University), I apply only evidence-based techniques known to help clients learn how to live more satisfying lives, at work, school or at home. Widely trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, I work in the most direct way to evaluate how they interact with others, and to identify where and how changes could be made, and where support is available. Additional training allows me to integrate the visual arts to enhance self awareness and problem solving where appropriate.

My specialties are in working with older adolescents (16+) and adults struggling with trauma, disordered eating, depression, anxiety, grief, breakups & life transitions. By working together, we help you or your teen create new ways to deal & heal from life's toughest challenges. Much of my work focuses on healing from difficult emotions related to current or past experiences, setting boundaries, challenging diet culture, body neutrality, building self-esteem & acceptance (especially in the era of super unrealistic social media pressures), and fostering healthy relationships with yourself & the people you care about.

Congratulations, you've taken the first step toward emotional well-being. Seeking help is a sign of strength. The pandemic took its toll on everyone. Some of us are only now recognizing the repercussions. I believe you'll find me empathic, curious and as a client once told me, "You care but keep it real." This is my second career; Journalism was my first. After years of working for a daily NYC paper I freelanced and raised my children. My life experience has enabled me to walk in many people's shoes.
