People often come to therapy when something in their life feels off, whether it’s anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, relationship struggles, or simply the sense that things could feel more manageable, more meaningful, or more connected. Whatever brings you in, my goal is to offer a space that’s supportive, thoughtful, and focused on what matters most to you.
I work collaboratively and tailor treatment to your individual needs and goals. My approach is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and I also integrate tools from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and internal family systems (IFS) to help deepen insight, build coping skills, and promote meaningful, lasting change. I bring both structure and flexibility to our work, offering practical strategies alongside space for reflection and exploration.
I believe that therapy should feel like a place where you can be fully yourself, without judgment or pressure. I don’t come in with assumptions or a preset agenda; instead, I take the time to really understand your experiences and help you clarify what you want out of therapy and out of life. From there, we work together to move toward those goals in a way that feels grounded and achievable.
I strive to be a warm, engaged, and effective therapist, someone who listens closely, challenges thoughtfully, and walks with you through whatever you’re facing. Wherever you are in your process, I’m here to support your growth, your insight, and your path forward.

“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.”
I received my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology. My clinical experience spans a variety of settings, where I have worked with individuals across the lifespan. During my pre-doctoral fellowship at the Parnes Clinic in the Bronx, I provided care to individuals navigating a wide range of life challenges. I also completed rotations at the Jacobi PRIDE Clinic and the LEMLE Clinic, where I supported individuals exploring their neurodivergence and gender non-conforming identities. My evidence-based training includes specialized work at the Yale University DBT Program, where I honed my skills in using DBT to treat personality disorders and severe mental illness, as well as at South Beach Psychiatric Centers, where I gained experience in working with individuals facing complex, severe, and persistent mental health conditions.
In addition to my training in traditional clinical settings, I have worked with a diverse array of populations, including asylum seekers, parents of foster youth, and members of the special needs community. These experiences have deepened my understanding of trauma, identity, and resilience. I approach each client with a high degree of empathy and a commitment to understanding their unique circumstances, strengths, and challenges.
