LCSW
Accepting Clients

I am a collaborative, calm, empathic, non-judgmental and flexible therapist, and I am pleased that you have found your way to my page.

Clinical Social Worker in Brooklyn, NY

About My Clients

I have 15 years of experience in NYC-based social work and specialize in therapeutic work with adults, with a focus on depression, anxiety, relationships & boundaries, self-esteem, and explorations of gender identity and sexual identity. I am polyamory and LGBTQIA+ affirming.

My Background and Approach

I draw from a variety of frameworks with a deep grounding in modern psychodynamic and relational psychotherapies, at times integrating somatic mindfulness based, and cognitive behavioral therapy strategies. I have formal training in both Sex Therapy and EMDR. My primary goal is to support you in tapping into your strength and wisdom while offering you space - physical, emotional, and relational - to explore your internal world as well as your experience of the external world.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

There are many different paths that lead one to therapy, and I am excited to have the opportunity to learn about the unique set of circumstances that have brought you to my (currently virtual!) office. I strongly believe in the personal transformation and liberation that can be achieved through therapeutic work, while also acknowledging the realities and barriers of systemic oppression.
