About My Clients

My ideal client is someone who can foster a deep curiosity about themselves, who wants to peel back the layers of their lived experience and understand how they've come to develop their current sense of self. They are usually clients struggling with depressed mood, anxiety, perfectionism, self-esteem, burnout/stress, a new role (e.g. motherhood, divorce), or prolonged grief.

My Background and Approach

I received my undergraduate degree from University of Pennsylvania and my masters-level training from Columbia University. This means my academic training has been largely at research-heavy institutions that prioritize evidence-based treatments. Evidenced-based treatments (e.g. CBT) are aimed at interrupting recurring negative thoughts and behaviors that are occurring in the present moment. You will see this approach manifest in our work together, as I am frequently concerned with what is happening in your life today, and how these issues are impacting you in the here and now. However, I also believe how we respond in the present moment are largely informed by our past experiences, including the context we grew up in. Thus my approach also relies on depth-oriented work (e.g. psychodynamic therapy) that can only come from understanding our past and unearthing the more subtle layers of our consciousness. If I sound like someone you’d want to work with, please schedule a free consultation
