Hello! I am so happy to introduce myself to you. I have over 20 years of experience working as a therapist. I love being a therapist because I enjoy meeting new people and getting to know their stories. I’m a firm believer in treating the person in front of me, not the diagnosis or code. I don’t believe in seeing someone as their struggle. I help people cope with their symptoms or challenges and to become the best version of themselves. I use many therapeutic frameworks to accomplish this. I never follow one framework only. That shortchanges the opportunities for improvement to me.
I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with over fifteen years of experience working as a therapist and a coach. I support clients navigating depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, OCD, parenting problems, career challenges, and life transitions.
I've worked with adolescents, couples, and families and I value creating a space where clients feel safe, understood and supported. I'm direct, yet compassionate, and I am not afraid to help you explore the "elephant in the room" so we can get to the root of what's keeping you stuck.
With over 25 years of experience in this field, I consider it an honor to be a part of a client's journey through difficult times. Everyone struggles at some point in their lives, and it takes tremendous courage to seek help. I bring compassion, empathy, and solution-oriented focus to each session.
I want clients to know that I’m warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative in my approach. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all style of therapy, so I try to meet each person where they are and adjust based on what they need in the moment.
I use both talk therapy and art therapy, and you don’t need any experience with art for it to be helpful. Sometimes words are enough, and other times it can be easier to express things through creative work, either way is okay.
My style is supportive but also practical. I like helping clients understand what they’re feeling, build coping skills they can actually use day-to-day, and gently work through patterns that feel stuck or overwhelming.
Most importantly, I aim to create a space where you don’t feel judged, rushed, or pressured, just supported at your own pace.
Struggling with Anxiety Depression Trauma or OCD symptoms? I view these struggles not as flaws, but as deeply human responses to our life experiences. You possess an innate capacity for healing. Our work is a true partnership built on unconditional warmth and safety. We move at your unique pace, honoring your voice every step of the way. I offer a safe, gentle, and collaborative space for your personal healing without judgment. Together, we will untangle the past, reclaim your inner strength, and help you live as your true, authentic self.
I believe that peace does not come from your surroundings—it comes from within. It is something you can learn to build and strengthen.
My role is to support and guide you through life’s ups and downs, helping you stay grounded along the way. Whether you are managing ongoing challenges such as Bipolar Disorder or OCD, or going through a difficult and overwhelming season, I am here to help you regain a sense of control and joy.
I work with individuals, couples, and families, creating a safe and supportive space where healing and growth can take place.
Hello, and welcome. I’m truly glad you’re here and taking this meaningful step toward healing and growth. Life is a journey—while there are moments we can walk alone, there are also times when we benefit from having someone beside us to provide support, perspective, and encouragement. As your culturally competent therapist, I’m here to walk alongside you and help you move toward a more joyful, fulfilling, and empowered life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Brooklyn
Finding OCD therapists in Brooklyn starts with looking for training that matches the type of care you need. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or unwanted mental rituals. Some therapists have training in approaches used to support people with OCD-related concerns, and not all therapists have specific training in every approach. As you compare therapists, look for bios that list OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or experience supporting people with obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right fit may depend on more than location. If local appointment times or commute options limit your search, virtual OCD therapy can expand the number of therapists available to you in New York. Pay close attention to whether a therapist lists OCD as an area of familiarity or names specific ERP training in their profile. It also helps to compare appointment availability, therapy approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.
Therapy in Brooklyn can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first visit. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, compare detailed profiles, verify insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
