Psychologist

Virtual • New York


I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who works with adults and couples seeking to better understand themselves, make meaningful changes, and feel less stuck in patterns that no longer work for them. I aim to help individuals with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. I value honesty and openness in therapy and bring a warm but straightforward approach to my work. I recognize how vulnerable the therapeutic relationship can be; therefore, I strive to discuss what I notice constructively while creating space for you to be equally open with me. I see the therapeutic relationship and mutual trust as integral to creating meaningful change.

I believe the client is the expert of their experience and aim to meet them where they are. I open my heart and expertise to create a gentle sanctuary full of empathy for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Therapy can be awkward and scary at times; it works best when there is collaborative and trusting relationship to help clients in areas of need, while empowering them to use their strengths and learn tools to overcome difficulties. Therapy can also be rewarding a self-reflecting process, and I am honored to be a part of it for any period.
