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.
WHO I WORK WITH
I am particularly passionate about working with musical artists, touring professionals, creative thinkers and performers, athletes, and their family members and helping navigate unique challenges of the industry and life on the road. If you are motivated to engage in deep inner exploration, I think we’d be a great fit.
I have expertise and training working with this population and am a therapist in the Backline network.
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. From 2015-2017, I volunteered 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 practice virtually via video platform M/W/Th and offer in person sessions in the Financial District, NYC on Tuesdays. For those in Pennsylvania, I am only practicing virtually at this time.
I am accepting new clients and would love to hear from you.
