I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, and interpersonal concerns. I firmly believe that every individual possesses the capacity to actively participate in the challenging journey of personal growth, both within and beyond the therapy room. Each person inherently deserves the right to self-determination and authenticity. In my practice, I am dedicated to guiding individuals toward realizing their fullest potential. As an LGBTQIA+ advocate, a supporter of racial justice movements, a feminist, and an anti-Zionist Jew, I am committed to fostering inclusivity and equality. I also embrace a sex-positive and body-affirming approach in my therapeutic work. I am passionate about the healing power of nature, art, and the companionship of animals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we'll have introductions and then discuss what challenges bring you to therapy. My objective is to start to get to know you and by doing this I can create a plan tailored to your needs for further work together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am empathetic, down-to-earth and validating. I use a strengths-based approach and I can help you dig deeper and face tough emotions and problems.
