Dare to Flourish: Your Journey to Healing Starts Here
Healing isn’t just about getting through the day; it’s about rediscovering the strength to grow into your most authentic self. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life’s most difficult transitions.
Whether you are seeking individual, family, or couples therapy, my goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can process grief, strengthen relationships, and find your footing again. Together, we will work to move beyond just surviving—we will work so you can truly flourish.
As a bilingual clinician, I offer therapy in both English and Spanish, ensuring that language is never a barrier to expressing your deepest emotions or cultural nuances.
Hi there! I use therapy to help adults reconnect themselves to their own innate drive to heal
I have a wide range of experience that encompasses counseling to running a counseling program. I've completed advance training in numerous counseling theories and am a CBT trainer at a behavioral health clinic. This experience allows me to adapt evidence based interventions to fit your personality and treatment goals. But that is not why you will get better in therapy; that is due to your own innate drive to heal.
For 18 years I have worked alongside adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and the transitions that turn life upside down. I believe therapy works best when you can show up exactly as you are. In our sessions, we build on your strengths, move at a pace that feels right for you, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. Whether you are navigating a specific challenge or simply looking for a space to better understand yourself, I would love to connect.
Hi, I'm a laid-back therapist who is passionate about helping people navigate life's ups and downs. For the past 10 years, I've had the privilege of working with military service members, veterans, their families, and members of the community. Whether you're facing stress, trauma, life transitions, or just feeling stuck, I'm here to help you find hope, build on your strengths, and move forward with confidence.
I am the Founder of EQ Therapy (eqtherapy.co), a private practice designed for high-performing clients. I also teach at NYU in their graduate mental health counseling program. My dissertation at Johns Hopkins focused on the mental health experience of intercollegiate student-athletes. I supervise therapists at EQ Therapy who are accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy. If you're a couple, college student, industry leader, entrepreneur, or athlete, schedule a session with with me today!
Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I have been a Licensed Social Worker for 17 years and believe that therapy is a wonderful tool for growth and change. My approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and help you live your best life!
For 11 years, I have sat with people at some of the hardest moments of their lives, from
medical crises to the quieter weight of anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. I bring a
collaborative, nonjudgmental presence because the best work happens when you feel
genuinely heard. If you are ready to start, I would love to meet you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in New York
Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
