I believe that therapy is a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and exploration. If you’re looking to learn more about your past, present, or how you can pursue your future, therapy can be a great place to do just that.

I aim to create a safe space for us to process trauma collaboratively and work on issues such as anxiety, depression, chronic illness, relationship struggles, abuse, life and career concerns, and issues around identity and creative expression. I also specialize in helping people recover from coercive control and influence, including survivors of cultic abuse and high-demand groups.
I am a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping individuals overcome life’s challenges and achieve their fullest potential. With over 16 years of experience in the field, I specialize in providing compassionate and evidence-based therapy to clients struggling with various issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues.
I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Springfield College and is licensed to practice in the state of New York and Connecticut. I have extensive training in cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care, allowing me to tailor treatment to meet the unique needs of each individual.
I believe in the transformational power of human connection, and that finding support through therapy can foster hope, heal wounds, mitigate pain, and find new, healthy ways to manage challenges.
