Psychotherapy can benefit people facing a range of challenges. Currently, I see adults and adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship or interpersonal difficulties, and sometimes with health/illness issues. I see many people experiencing distress and other symptoms associated with life transitions such as adolescence, marriage, new parenthood or challenges in family planning, divorce, professional or personal role redefinition, retirement, and aging. I provide counseling to individuals and couples struggling with the shifting roles and demands of these complicated times. Therapy is a collaboration. I bring a warm, curious, nonjudgmental nature, an appreciation for individual differences, spontaneity and value of humor. Together, we explore patterns, thoughts, and feelings from the past and present. Clients begin therapy not only with identified concerns but also with resources that can be harnessed for lasting change. I use an active, contemporary approach to psychotherapy. I integrate psychodynamic, relational and cognitive-behavioral models and, where appropriate, health psychology, tailoring my work to each individual and their circumstances. My goal is to help people find relief from their suffering and to discover new ways of experiencing life to its fullest.

I believe therapy means making you feel deeply known and accepted, and by creating a warm and secure bond opens the space for long-lasting, personal growth. I appreciate how some old habits you have picked up at an earlier point may no longer serve you now. The process of understanding yourself with compassion and learning new ways of being in the world isn't always easy, but I'll be with you every step of the way. Together we can find and solve the "stuck points" holding you back from living a full and meaningful life. I work with individual adults focusing on mood and personality issues. As your therapist, my goal is to help you live up to the best version of yourself. My approach centers on harnessing your unique strengths in building the bridge between where you are and where you want to be. I take an integrative approach that reflects my dual training in transference-based theory such as Schema and evidence-based theory such as CBT. Thus, my treatment balances the exploration of experiential life with actionable change.

Let me tell you a little bit more about me. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I have always loved helping others. My passion for working with people in their 20s and 30s stems from years of working with children and adolescents in schools. I’ve helped students find their own path into adulthood and see my current work as a continuation of offering that guidance and support. Previous clients describe me as very kind, empathetic, non-judgmental, and caring. Counseling is in my blood, it's all I have ever done and I feel as passionate about it today as I did when I started.

Specializing in fostering empathetic connections, I provide support for clients of all backgrounds. My therapeutic style is characterized by a gentle and welcoming approach, creating a safe and accepting space where clients can explore, heal, and grow. I believe in the power of collaboration and tailor my methods to suit the unique needs of each client. I am trauma-informed and support clients confronting a range of challenges especially if requiring a more AAPI/culturally sensitive approach. I also work with clients navigating religious trauma and challenges, and am able to provide faith-based and/or spiritually sensitive counseling based on client needs. I believe in the client and in the expertise of their experiences. My training and background prioritizes identifying your strengths and prioritizing you as the center of your story and healing. Together, we can work towards growth and change—where you’re supported, understood, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges.

Do you feel stuck in your relationships? Having difficulty setting and maintaining boundaries? Struggling to connect with the people around you? I work primarily with adults who are looking to explore themselves and their relationship patterns to work toward more meaningful connections. I believe wholeheartedly that the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives, and I am passionate about using our relationship as client and therapist as a tool and lens to help you explore and understand more about the other relationships in your life and how you show up in them. If what you've read so far speaks to you, please reach out to me via email to set up a free consultation appointment. I look forward to building a relationship with you that can hopefully be a starting point to building your personal relationships as well.

My experience as a therapist includes working at the NYU Counseling Services for many years. I have a deep understanding of the challenges both undergraduate and graduate students face with the changes, separations and transitions involved in becoming independent adults. It is a time filled with excitement as well as stress and worries about the future. The internal and external pressures, expectations from family and demands of the academic world can feel overwhelming at times. For graduate and doctoral students, there are the stressors of completing programs, dissertations and the challenges of seeking employment. Students may also be struggling with feeling alone, isolated, anxious, depressed, dealing with body image self-esteem and sexuality issues as well as social pressures around alcohol and other substances. Therapy can help in navigating these challenges, offer insight and reduce stress. I am a compassionate, extensively trained and interactive therapist. Together, we can work to develop strategies, address negative patterns of thought and behaviors, manage stress and help you deal with relationships more effectively. I am also trained and certified in clinical hypnosis which can be very useful in managing the physical and psychological symptoms of stress and anxiety including phobias, GI issues such as IBS as well as reducing symptoms of depression while increasing self-confidence and success.

Everything you need to cope with the struggles you're going through is inside of you as you read this. Our job as your therapist is to act as a mirror so that you can truly see yourself for the first time. We will be a sounding board for you to start the conversations that you need to have with yourself and potentially with others. We provide a safe, non-judgmental and confidential space where you can feel free to express yourself and be as open as you feel comfortable. We specialize in working with women, especially women of color, who need help learning to cope with stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms. We have vast experience working with clients who have survived trauma during various stages of life. We can all use help from others, especially when we're going through a particularly tough time. Even at a time where you may feel like you don't know what on earth is going on and everything is upside down, you know that something has to change. Let's make some changes together!

I am a board-certified, Cornell and Mount Sinai-trained adult and child psychiatrist in New York and California.

I view each person as a complex individual with a unique story to tell, so I take time getting to know my clients and work collaboratively to develop a targeted plan to achieve their treatment goals. I have expertise in treating depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, tic, ADHD, ODD, personality disorders, and eating disorders in children, teens, adults, and in pregnant and breastfeeding women. I also work with adults transitioning into parenthood, and with infants and toddlers. I am available for consultations and second opinions.
