I'm a licensed therapist in New York dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work spans a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, mood disorders, trauma, and life transitions. I'm particularly skilled at helping clients navigate self-worth, communication struggles, isolation, social anxiety, grief, attachment patterns, and identity questions.
I bring a culturally responsive and affirming approach to therapy, honoring the unique experiences of LGBTQ+ clients and individuals from diverse backgrounds. I'm committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your authentic self and build meaningful connections.
My therapeutic style is collaborative and person-centered. I draw on evidence-based practices to help you develop insight, build coping skills, and move toward greater peace and purpose. Whether you're facing relationship challenges, workplace stress, life transitions, or deeper emotional struggles, I'm here to support your growth at your own pace.
I believe therapy is an opportunity to reconnect with yourself and discover your own strength. I'm honored to walk alongside you on your healing journey.
