Welcome! I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist with 9 years experience working with individuals to support their mental health. My approach is warm, relationship-based, trauma-informed, and grounded in attachment and psychodynamic theory. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. I work with clients navigating anxiety, relationships, grief and loss, trauma, self-esteem, identity, life transitions, and the many challenges that come with growing and changing. I especially enjoy working with young adults who are navigating the transition into adulthood - whether you are feeling overwhelmed, questioning your direction, struggling in relationships, or simply wanting a better understanding of yourself. Across my work, I focus less on simply "fixing" problems and more on creating a trusting relationship where meaningful change can happen. My goal is to meet your where you can feel safe being your authentic self.

With over a decade of experience in behavioral health, crisis intervention, and psychiatric and medical social work, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to the therapy process. My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and always rooted in respect for you and your own unique experiences. I work with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, burnout, self-esteem issues, substance use concerns, and women's issues. I also enjoy working with other healthcare professionals and caregivers; people who spend so much of their time caring for others, that they forget how to care for themselves. Clients often tell me they appreciate having a therapist who is warm, approachable, and easy to talk to- all while helping to move beyond insight into meaningful action.

Hello! I specialize in providing art therapy and talk therapy services to help students navigate their mental health journey in a safe and supportive environment.

Counseling is a process of building relationships, and for the past 30 years, I have been building relationships across a wealth of life-experiences: as a teacher and life-long learner, an administrator in higher education and healthcare, a parent of adult children, a daughter with a complex upbringing. From a collaborative, person-centered, and strengths-based perspective, we will work together to tap into strengths, confront challenges, and build resilience, unpacking and understanding the life experiences that have shaped you to foster emotional growth and well-being.

The college years are a time of self discovery and challenge. Opening yourself up to new people, experiences and ways of thinking can be both invigorating and daunting. Being away from the known can feel overwhelming. What I can offer you is an opportunity to explore underlying patterns of thought, behavior and communication that may inhibit your ability to meet your own expectations of yourself during this unique time in your life. Together we will work to identify and overcome the obstacles that have interfered with your ability to resolve distressing issues. Together we will calm your anxious mind, alleviate symptoms of depression, increase self-awareness, identify strengths and empower you to move your life in a more positive direction.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with an expertise in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I specialize in working with adolescents, young adults, and adults struggling with a wide range of issues including social and generalized anxiety, OCD, panic, depression, self-esteem and emotion-regulation. I also enjoy working with individuals going through significant life transitions, such as adjustment to college, parenting, or divorce. I primarily utilize a CBT approach while integrating mindfulness and other techniques to the work when appropriate. I employ an active, collaborative, and individualistic approach to treatment with a validating stance.

Do you find yourself dealing with anxiety or relationship challenges? Are you using substances to cope with difficult feelings or situations? These struggles can feel overwhelming, but having support can make a meaningful difference. I work with individuals who feel stuck in unhelpful patterns and are looking for guidance, insight, and practical tools to move forward. In therapy, I help clients build healthy coping skills, strengthen self-esteem, and navigate life transitions. My approach focuses on increasing awareness of thoughts and emotions to better understand challenges and develop effective, lasting solutions. I specialize in working with anxiety, relationship challenges, depression, and substance abuse/misuse. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being their authentic selves. I use an integrative, client-centered approach tailored to each individual’s unique needs and therapeutic goals. I understand that seeking help can feel difficult, and your comfort and trust are central to my work. My goal is to empower you to recognize your strengths, foster growth, and create meaningful change in your life.

My approach emphasizes relationship and rapport building, empathy, and compassion. You are the writer of your own story, but together we can work on developing tools tailored to your specific needs. My background includes working with adolescents and adults from various communities and cultures experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, cancer, PTSD, mood disorders, executive dysfunction, or disruption in family and/or relationship dynamics. As a therapist, my goal for my clients is to assist them in achieving their goals based on the strengths they already possess, building upon those strengths, and creating new ways to adapt to different life events and stressful circumstances.

As you grow, you strive for more out of life, yet may be unsure how to get to where you may wish to be. I will support you on your journey as we explore together your needs, long-term and short-term perceived goals, and best practices for fulfilling them. I use the therapeutic process to empower my clients so that you come to realize and acknowledge the wealth of resources you have both within and without, building on strengths and gaining confidence to accept the past and create your personal story. I provide individual and group therapy to children, teens, adults, and seniors, with extensive experience working with issues related to anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, midlife, parenting, school, caregiver stress, creatively aging, and the second half of life. According to Carl Jung, individuation is the process of self-realization through discovering meaning and purpose in one's life. I provide a safe space for exploration and honoring all aspects of the self-the good, the challenging, that which may be difficult to look at, and everything in between. I use methods such as verbal and non-verbal techniques, art therapy, dreamwork, and imagery as entryways to viewing the unconscious and symbolic content and how these present themselves in conscious life. I am open to the needs of each individual client and invite you to lead me as your guide on your path of growth and evolvement. I hold a Master's degree in Art Therapy and Counseling from Long Island University and certificates in Jungian oriented psychotherapy from the CG Jung Institute of San Francisco, which informs my integrative approach to therapy and supports my commitment to creative and holistic healing.

I strive to support individuals facing complex cognitive, behavioral, and emotional challenges. Clients usually come to me when they feel stuck or misunderstood due to the chronic stress of anxiety, depression, rigid patterns, or daily executive functioning hurdles. Often, they are looking for answers through psychological evaluation, or they are trying to support their child/themselves through challenges. I aim to help clients move forward by collaborating on a practical roadmap that honors their unique lived experience. I offer objective, detailed assessments to uncover accurate answers for a variety of psychological disorders or behavioral profiles. I also offer targeted psychotherapy (CBT, ERP, ACT, mindfulness-based, and play therapy) to build practical emotional regulation and coping skills. Managing these challenges can feel exhausting, and finding the right support can feel daunting. I provide a straightforward, collaborative partnership where you don't have to hide your struggles. When you feel ready to explore working together or need an evaluation, I invite you to reach out for an initial consultation.
