If you are struggling with anxiety or dealing with a major change in your life, I can help. You have choices when it comes to your career, relationships, and family. I will speak with you openly about your feelings and help you to gain new perspectives and solutions. I work closely with men and women facing many situations, including how to deal with a complicated relationship, family and work problems, or the loss of loved ones. My approach to healing combines traditional therapies with holistic approaches, while drawing on the individual’s spiritual practices and developing new coping strategies Now accepting new clients in New York and Texas!

My core belief is simple: I believe in you and your ability to become the healthiest, most fulfilled version of yourself. Life often makes it hard to see that potential, let alone know how to get there. My role is to be your guide and ally on that journey.

My path to becoming a clinician has been intentional. Beyond my master's degree in counseling and advanced post-master's training, my work in non-profit and community mental health has given me a breadth of experience with people from all walks of life. This doesn't mean "I've seen it all," but it does mean that I'm prepared to meet you where you are, without judgment. No matter what you're going through, if you are ready to take a step, so am I.

Look, nothing gets better if we don't find a way to face it safely. That's why therapy takes courage. It took courage just to get this far, and you already deserve credit for that. When you're ready for that first, brave step of reaching out, I'll be here, ready to loan you some of my hope until you can hold it for yourself.

Do you often notice that you have self-critical thoughts and beliefs? Do you have past experiences or traumas that may be hindering your ability to practice self-compassion? Feelings are sometimes hard to explain and even harder to deal with. Understanding why you feel a certain way can help you regain control over yourself and how you respond. My passion is helping those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.

Finding a therapist who truly gets you, your background, your relationships, and the pressures you carry can be the difference between therapy that feels like homework and therapy that actually changes things. I bring both clinical expertise and a deeply personal understanding of what it means to navigate identity, belonging, and relationships in a complex world. I work with adults across the full range of human experience: women sorting through life transitions, men learning to open up in ways they never felt safe to before, and anyone wrestling with questions of who they are and where they belong. I specialize in anxiety, depression, adjustment to life changes, and the messy, beautiful work of building healthier relationships with others and with yourself.
