Therapist

Virtual • New York


You dreamed of what becoming a mother would feel like — and maybe this isn’t it. You’re exhausted in ways you didn’t expect. You’re anxious, or numb, or you can’t stop the intrusive thoughts. You love your baby and yet you feel lost inside your own life. That disconnect is real, and it makes sense.

I specialize in supporting mothers through the emotional weight of the perinatal period; from pregnancy through the postpartum years. This includes birth trauma, postpartum anxiety and depression, intrusive thoughts, and the profound stress of a NICU stay or premature birth. If your baby’s early days were shaped by fear, separation, or medical uncertainty, you don’t have to carry that alone.

In our work together, you won’t be rushed, minimized, or handed a generic coping list. You’ll have space to say the things you haven’t been able to say out loud and to slowly feel like yourself again.

I offer virtual sessions, making it easy to get support from the comfort of your home — no babysitter required.

Ready to take the first step? Book a free 15-minute consultation and let’s talk about whether we’re a good fit.

Do you understand your experiences intellectually, but still find yourself reacting in ways you don’t understand? You may know where your patterns come from, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in painful relationship patterns.

I work with adults who are ready to understand not only why they feel the way they do, but also to create meaningful change in how they experience themselves, their relationships, and their lives.

My work is especially focused on trauma, attachment wounds, narcissistic and emotional abuse, sexual trauma, relationship difficulties, anxiety, self-worth, and major life transitions. I bring a warm, compassionate, and deeply individualized approach to therapy. I believe you should feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences without feeling judged, rushed, or pressured to “just move on.”

Together, we look at the connection between your experiences, emotions, thoughts, body, and relationships. My goal is not simply to help you cope with symptoms, but to help you develop greater self-understanding, self-trust, emotional freedom, and a stronger sense of who you are.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes real change comes from feeling both supported and gently challenged. I'm warm and direct — I'll meet you where you are, but I won't let you stay stuck. I'm also passionate about working with first responders and law enforcement, and I bring a genuine understanding of the culture and pressures that come with those roles. Outside the office, you'll find me hiking or camping — I try to practice what I preach when it comes to finding balance.
