I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Connecticut, Maine, and New York, and PSYPACT authorized, with nearly 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I provide individual therapy for clients navigating the emotional ups and downs of other family building pathways, such as IVF, IUI, egg or sperm donation, and adoption. I also support those pursuing medically guided weight-management treatments, including bariatric surgery (i.e., gastric sleeve or bypass) and GLP-1 medications, with attention to the emotional, relational, and identity changes these experiences can bring. Through my own lived experiences, I understand how deeply personal these journeys can be—and how they may bring feelings of isolation, fear, or loss alongside hope and excitement. I use evidence-based approaches to help clients manage the identity and relational shifts, stress, uncertainty, grief, self-doubt, and adjustment to lifestyle changes associated with these medical concerns while building coping skills and emotional resilience. You don’t have to carry that alone. I am committed to creating a warm, inclusive, and affirming space where clients feel seen and supported, with particular attention to the experiences of women of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community. My goal is to help you navigate these transitions with clarity, self-trust, and emotional balance, supporting you as you work toward the life and goals that matter most to you.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New York rather than a city like New York City?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New York. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New York from Buffalo to Rochester! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New York.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
