Find a therapist in New York — covered by insurance

Hello! Here is my short & sweet elevator pitch....well virtual elevator pitch. I have worked primarily with children & adolescents for 6 years in hospital, outpatient and school settings. I have experience with children in active crisis, emotional distress, trauma, homelessness, foster care & those with various learning disabilities. I use humor to get to know my patients, and you can always count on me to crack a joke about myself to lighten the mood.

I have full diagnostic privileges as a LMHC. I have worked in a variety of settings and with a variety of different populations including those with trauma and substance abuse histories and those who struggle with severe mental ill diagnoses

I received my MSW from Columbia University and have been a clinician for 8 years. I incorporate CBT with a psychodynamic approach in order to both affirm and challenge clients. My practice is rooted in a strengths-based and person-centered approach. To help you meet your goals, I prioritize understanding you and where your identity, values, and life experiences intersect.

I've been doing this work for 28 years — and I'm still genuinely curious about the people I work with. I care about the whole arc of your life, not just the symptoms showing up right now. I integrate CBT, Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, and expressive arts, including music — depending on what each person actually needs. I'm LGBTQA+-affirming and bring a culturally responsive lens to every session. I don't assume, I ask. I work with adults across New York via telehealth, and I offer superbills that clients can submit to their insurance for potential reimbursement.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I’m passionate about helping you navigate life’s challenges with resilience. I have experience working with adults managing ADHD, anxiety, life transitions, depression, and cultural identity concerns. I strive to provide a culturally sensitive, affirming space where you feel heard and understood.

I’m a licensed therapist and intuitive healer who helps clients reconnect with themselves and reclaim their peace. My background blends traditional clinical training with holistic practices like reiki energy work, somatic practices and mindfulness, allowing me to meet clients where they are- mind, body, and spirit.

I specialize in supporting people who’ve carried too much for too long — those navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or complex family dynamics. My approach is real, compassionate, and down-to-earth. I don’t believe in quick fixes or surface-level advice; I believe in helping you understand your story, heal old wounds, and move forward feeling grounded, confident, and aligned.

I value connection and trust. While I aim to provide a safe & encouraging space to share your narrative I also provide feedback & remain engaged in conversation throughout session. I ask that you keep an open mind & give yourself the grace & patience we all deserve throughout this journey.

Taking care of our minds is essential to living healthy, fulfilling lives. Together we can decide what a healthy mind means to you. No man is an island, I am here to help. I look forward to meeting you.

I am Trauma Trained Clinician, Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional and graduate of the Immigration Institute. I've worked in the Psychiatric Emergency Rooms and have extensive experience with survivors of trauma, legal advocacy and a cohort of mental/behavioural concerns.
