Pain is inevitable in life, but does need to stop us from living fully and beautifully. Through therapy I aim to help those I work with live deeper, happier lives with more balance and fulfillment. I believe that a strong, supportive relationship between the therapist and client is a fundamental factor in treatment. I see therapy as a collaborative process and empower those I work with to help direct the course of treatment. Additionally, I take a holistic view that includes attending to societal power structures that can contribute to and exacerbate the difficulties people face.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist in NY & NJ, and my specialties include working the LGBTQ+ clients, and adolescents/young adults. I also have a particular interest in working with creative artists, people struggling with existential anxiety, parents trying to find balance between their personal and parent identities, and folks with body image struggles.
