About MY APPROACH

First time in therapy? Tried it before? Let’s meet exactly where you’re at.

I use an integrative approach that's tailored to your unique needs with special focus on attachment, neuropsychology, and the mind/body connection. I view mental wellness through a holistic lens and strive to help individuals develop nervous system regulation strategies and establish a sense of internal safety and trust.

what to expect in therapy

I believe that healing starts with a strong therapeutic relationship and focus on establishing an accepting, warm environment filled with trust and free of judgement. This foundational relationship and your courage and willingness allow for deep exploration into your inner world. As a client, you will take an active role in the therapeutic process and together, we’ll work towards awakening the autopilot that many of us default to. Through compassionate and curious exploration, we will bring awareness to once adaptive patterns that may be interfering with your life.

I am a therapist in the Backline network and have expertise and training counseling music industry professionals and their family members.

professional history

Prior to counseling individuals in a private practice setting, I worked in an inpatient psychiatric crisis stabilization facility and provided care for individuals experiencing acute mental health crises. Prior to that, I spent several years volunteering in a mentor and manager role with a non-profit organization that provided supportive, sober housing for individuals with substance and alcohol use issues.

logistics

I am currently primarily practicing via video platform but also offer in person sessions in the Financial District, NYC.

I am accepting new clients and would love to hear from you.
