My work is rooted in helping clients reconnect with themselves, gain clarity, and build a life that feels more grounded, empowered, and aligned with who they truly are. I offer a warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive approach to therapy. No two people are the same, which is why I tailor each session to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based practices like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and somatic techniques to help you explore the root of your struggles and move toward healing in a way that feels meaningful and manageable. Many of the individuals I work with come to me feeling emotionally stuck — whether that’s in their personal life, their career, or their relationships. You might find yourself constantly overthinking, struggling to set boundaries, or repeating cycles that leave you feeling defeated. In our work together, we’ll explore these patterns with curiosity and compassion, not judgment. I also support clients navigating grief, childhood wounds, family dynamics, identity issues, and burnout. If you're someone who has always felt the need to "hold it all together" for others, therapy can be the space where you finally get to be held. Whether you’re new to therapy or returning after time away, you’re welcome here. My goal is to help you feel more connected — to yourself, your values, and the life you want to build. Healing is not a straight line, but you don’t have to walk it alone. I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York and Florida. I have 30 years experience in the helping profession and 7 years as a therapist. I believe that insight without action leads to stagnation and frustration. It is valuable to talk about problems and issues but without a plan of action, clients become discouraged. Much of my work will involve identifying a next right step in addressing problems.

My personal experience has taught me that change can be stressful and uncomfortable and that there are some things in life that we do not have control over. My belief that people are resilient and can navigate through the hard times in life with support is what drew me to my area of focus. It has also deepened my passion for the counseling process. I have worked in several settings, such as hospitals, mental health agencies, and substance abuse clinics, which has helped shape my practice by enhancing my ability to understand my clients’ needs in regard to progress in treatment. I am also trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, which has enhanced my ability to recognize symptoms of trauma and understand how they may impact a client and act as an obstacle that keeps them from moving forward.
