Hello and welcome. I'm licensed clinical social worker in NY, NJ, FL, and TX. I work with athletes and adults who are navigating life transitions, performance pressure, or the lingering effects of trauma, whether personal or generational. Maybe you're unpacking patterns passed down through your family or feeling stuck in survival mode despite seeming “successful” on the outside. I offer a warm, relational space to explore what’s shaped you and reconnect with who you are beneath it all. Together, we’ll build the clarity, resilience, and emotional freedom you deserve.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Combines CBT with mindfulness to help regulate emotions, tolerate stress, and build stronger relationships. Originally designed for borderline personality disorder, it’s now used more broadly.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI) A collaborative, client-centered approach that strengthens motivation for change. It is especially effective for addictions and health behaviors.
- Music Therapy Uses music listening, songwriting, or rhythm exercises to support healing. It is effective for stress, emotional expression, and cognitive challenges.
- Psychoanalytic Therapy Based on Freud’s theories, it explores unconscious conflicts and past experiences. It seeks to bring hidden issues into awareness.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
- Psychoeducational Therapy Provides education and coping tools about mental health conditions. It empowers clients with knowledge and practical skills.
- Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.

I work with athletes and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and the pressure to perform. My style is relational, and trauma informed. We’ll explore patterns, deepen self-awareness, and build tools for resilience. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, so we’ll move at your pace toward healing, clarity, and meaningful change.
If you’ve been carrying pressure—on the field, at work, or from generations before you—seeking support can feel unfamiliar. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a space to slow down, be heard, and begin to heal. When you're ready, I’d be honored to support you in reconnecting with yourself.
