I’m a dual-licensed psychotherapist (LMHC, LCAT) providing online therapy to adults across New York State.
My work integrates trauma-informed care with evidence-based methods including CBT, DBT, ACT, IFS-informed approaches, and psychodynamic therapy.
I work with adults who appear composed externally yet feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or relationally stuck beneath the surface. Many of my clients are thoughtful, high-functioning individuals navigating demanding professional or personal roles who notice patterns they’re ready to understand and shift.
My style is warm, attuned, and thoughtfully direct. I value depth, clarity, and accountability. Our work focuses on strengthening emotional regulation, deepening insight, and refining relational patterns in ways that support sustainable, meaningful change.

"Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." Carl Jung
At times in our lives, we experience life as if it is happening to us. We don't know why we get into certain situations and why we are attracted to certain people. Developing your awareness through therapy can help you to navigate your life in ways that are more likely to bring you happiness and satisfaction.
I am open to meeting you as you really are, without judgement.
