I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals who are struggling to find their way in a complicated world. My practice offers a space for anyone who is looking for a sense of shelter and refuge where they can breathe, process their thoughts and feelings and find meaning in their life. I believe that everyone has the capacity to change and develop internal strength and resilience. It is my goal to empower those who are seeking new ways of looking at themselves and their relationships. Talk therapy has the ability to soothe our hearts and minds. More than ever, we need to find ways to reprogram our fear-driven minds.
I’m a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and drama therapist who works with women and young adults navigating anxiety, eating disorder recovery, substance use, and life transitions.
I have experience in inpatient rehab and use a harm reduction, nonjudgmental approach. My work combines talk therapy with creative techniques when helpful—though there’s no pressure to be “artistic.”
Healing and growth can be challenging, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re feeling the weight of past experiences or facing challenges in your relationship, we offer a warm, welcoming space for relational psychotherapy where you can be honest about what you’re carrying and feel fully supported. Our work is grounded in relational and attachment-focused therapy with attention to somatic awareness.
We focus on what matters most—the moments that spark insight, the conversations that feel necessary but tough, and the steps that help you move forward. Together, we will process what has been difficult, nurture your connection with yourself, and deepen your bond with the people who matter most.
I've worked successfully with race-and class-diverse, LGBT and straight clients from teens to seniors. Many are new to NYC or in other life transitions. Clients come with anxiety, identity issues, relationship or work problems, trouble managing anger...My style is warm yet analytical, and interactive. I encourage laughter! I find that people want to understand themselves, break free from self-damaging patterns, and live more fully--and joyfully.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in individual and couples therapy. I have over twenty years of experience working with a wide variety of clinical problems. I am most interested in working with individuals who are curious about themselves and who believe that they may find some relief from their struggles by examining their thoughts and feelings in the context of their relational history.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Staten Island
Searching for therapists in Staten Island starts with finding the right fit for the kind of support you want. Therapists may focus on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Their bio can show whether they use methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Staten Island offers local therapy options across neighborhoods like Stapleton, Great Kills, and Tompkinsville, while virtual appointments can add more flexibility across New York. Some people prefer an office close to home, work, or transit. Others choose virtual sessions to fit care into a busy schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Staten Island can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs.
