I am dedicated to creating a supportive and collaborative space where you can feel heard and understood. My work is guided by a passion for helping individuals navigate challenges, uncover their strengths, and achieve personal growth. I prioritize staying up-to-date with the latest evidence-based practices through ongoing learning and professional development.

Hi folks,
The picture you see above is what you get. I am a middle aged, white, lesbian, with experience in parenting and caretaking.
I am deeply committed to studying and practicing anti-racism, and recognize the limitations of my demographic point of view.
With a background in working with children and adults dealing with the stress of family separation, I have experience with acute mental health challenges, substance use disorders, and trauma. I am working with adults at this time.
I specialize in working with adult individual clients and couples who experience anxiety, depression, adult and childhood trauma, relationship conflict/transitions, and mid-life transitions. My master’s degree is in Mental Health Counseling and Expressive Arts Therapy from Lesley University. I am certified as a mindfulness teacher, mediator, and yoga teacher. The mind-body connection is an important aspect of the approach I take with clients. I am also trained to provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). Additionally, I’m a facilitator of Gender Equity and Reconciliation, so it informs my work with couples and relationship challenges.
FIT MIND counseling services enjoys empowering clients finding a more meaningful way to live their lives and assisting them learning about the importance of self-love. Helping clients to focus on themselves and on their self-care is a precious thing. When they learn to embrace and unconditionally love for being themselves, they become stronger in the face of negativity and more able to hold onto positive thoughts when faced with challenges.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with extensive experience in trauma, grief and bereavement, hospice and palliative care, substance use, recovery, and major life transitions. I earned my Master of Social Work from Wheelock College, along with a Certificate in Medical Social Work, and later completed training in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy and Research through the California Institute of Integral Studies. I also have experience with ketamine-assisted psychotherapy and bring an integrative, trauma-informed perspective to my work. I especially enjoy working with adults who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, lasting change.
I am a Latinx provider with a special interest in trauma and stressor related disorders. I have 10 years of experience in outpatient and residential settings. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults and their families.
Creativity and mental health are deeply connected, and I've built my career at that intersection. I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, a Distinguished Graduate of NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing, and adjunct faculty there today.
I'm also a working standup comedian who has performed at Gotham Comedy Club and New York Comedy Club, so I know firsthand the pressure, rejection, unpredictable schedules, and big highs and lows that come with a creative life.
In 2014 I founded MetroNP, a boutique psychiatric practice in Manhattan's Gramercy/Flatiron neighborhood designed specifically for creative people. Our clients include artists, designers, actors, writers, students, and members of the LGBTQI+ community, people who want a provider who truly gets their world
I have over twenty years of experience with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship issues and parenting, among other issues. In particular, I have worked with loneliness, burnout, social anxiety, and self esteem.
My education is from Binghamton University, Boston College, and Northeastern University. Fully licensed in NY and MA, I have additional specialized training in trauma informed care, DBT, grief, and anxiety.
I work with adults who may appear to be managing life well but privately feel anxious, lonely, stuck in their relationships, or caught in patterns they understand intellectually but can't seem to change.
Originally trained as a psychologist in Australia, I bring nearly two decades of clinical experience to my work in the US. My style is warm, straightforward, and engaged—I won't simply sit back and nod.
You may be overthinking a relationship, adjusting to a loss or major life change, struggling with anxiety or OCD, or simply realizing that the way you've been coping isn't working anymore. Therapy can be a place to understand what's underneath those patterns—and begin changing them.
