Welcome! I am a mother, former school social worker, reiki master, artist, and an empath with almost a decade of clinical experience. I help anxious people transform their lives, empower themselves, and gain unstoppable confidence. I specialize in helping you navigate big life transitions, whether that be in school, relationships, career, new parenthood, or simply wanting clarity on what your next move is. You've come to the right place.

Are you feeling alone and stuck in a transitional period in your life and that your mind is filled with negative thoughts directed towards yourself creating conflict or distance in your relationships with others? You are feeling hopeless and are having low energy, like you are about to give up? While you may not know the tools to help you, you do know what has not been working for you. Together we can build your own toolbox for you to help embrace control in your life!

I have had extensive experience with trauma in individuals from adolescence to late adulthood. I believe that trauma looks and feels different to every person. Two people experiencing the same event will have different outlooks and understandings of it. A traumatic event can take many forms. I want to help you pick up on where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors come from, even if you have never experienced “trauma".

I strive to practice integrity, humility, competence, transparency, courage, and collaboration in my personal and professional life. For more than a decade, I have served at-risk populations through nonprofit organizations in New York, Texas, and Massachusetts. My work brought me into clients’ homes, women’s clinics, schools, and therapeutic day programs. I’ve gained invaluable experience and skills engaging with Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy in a private practice infusion clinic. I currently support clients through telehealth and in-person sessions with customized, eclectic, evidence-based treatment plans. These plans help them gain insight into habitual thought patterns and behaviors, promoting nonjudgmental awareness and curiosity by building emotional and experiential skills.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, with nine years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents and adults. My primary focus has been helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and low self-esteem. I aspire to empower my clients while also building a safe space for self-exploration and growth. It is truly a privilege to be a part of the healing journey and helping clients find freedom from distressing symptoms.

Together, we’ll challenge the worries, thoughts, and beliefs that hold you back — so you can clear a path toward the life you actually want.
