About My Clients

My priority is to create a judgement-free environment where clients feel comfortable sharing authentically. During our work together, I will help you to identify the barriers holding you back. With compassion and humor, I make sure my therapy space is a place of comfort and authenticity. I am trained in EMDR, CPT, TF-CBT and other evidence-based modalities. I am Bisexual Allied, supporter of Body Positivity, Lesbian Allied, Queer Allied, Racial Justice Allied and Kink and Sex Worker positive.

My Background and Approach

My work is grounded in an understanding of both the individual and the environment in which they live, with attention to how context shapes experience and symptoms. I believe the therapeutic space is co-created by therapist and client, and I bring a collaborative, attuned presence to the work. My approach is integrative and targeted, drawing from psychodynamic therapy and EMDR where I received training at graduate of Columbia University in public health -- which informs my attention to both psychological and systemic factors. Perhaps you’ve experienced a major life upheaval, or you’re navigating more subtle but disruptive shifts in daily functioning. These moments can feel destabilizing, leading you to question core beliefs and wonder, “Am I on the right path?” New traumas may emerge, and older wounds may resurface, while the need to feel grounded remains constant.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am Bisexual Allied, an enthusiastic supporter of Body Positivity, Lesbian Allied, Queer Allied, Racial Justice Allied and Kink and Sex Worker positive. I am trans-competent, as well.
