My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience helping clients navigate anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and self-doubt. I specialize in working with high-achievers and people-pleasers who struggle to slow down, set boundaries, or feel enough without constantly doing more. My approach blends mindfulness, self-compassion, and nervous system regulation to help you break free from stress and guilt around rest. Therapy with me is warm, validating, and gently challenging—I’ll support you while also pushing you toward real change. If you're ready to stop running on empty and start feeling more balanced, let's connect. Now accepting clients in NY & VT via telehealth.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe therapy should be a safe, inclusive space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to create change. As a therapist, I value authenticity, self-compassion, and breaking free from societal pressures that tell us our worth is tied to productivity. I’m passionate about mental health advocacy, reducing burnout culture, and helping clients unlearn patterns of self-sacrifice. I support LGBTQ+ affirming care, social justice initiatives, and breaking generational cycles of perfectionism and people-pleasing. If you’ve ever felt like you have to earn rest or prove your worth, you’re not alone—and you deserve support.
