About My Clients

I currently specializes in treating women in their 20s & 30s who have anxiety disorders and/or are dealing with issues related to relationships, work and life transitions. Many of my clients also have past traumas or unresolved issues with their family of origin and find it difficult to communicate assertively and set boundaries in their relationships as a result.

My Background and Approach

I have over 10 years of experience working in non-profit, higher education and private practice settings with a variety of populations. My goal is to help young professionals in NYC and surrounding areas to improve the quality of their lives, live more mindfully & authentically, and overcome the mental and emotional blocks to achieving their goals. I'm an empathetic, non-judgmental, and thoughtful therapist who both appropriately challenges and supports my clients in our work together. My aim is to help clients gain an alternative perspective to the issues they face while working collaboratively to identify patterns that may be holding them back. I believe each person comes with their own set of strengths & challenges and tailor sessions to best meet each clients’ needs and goals.
