I offer queer-affirming therapy for people exploring identity, relationships, ADHD, OCD and life outside the usual script.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York, NY

About My Clients

You may be questioning identity, untangling shame or trying to understand why anxiety, OCD or ADHD keeps taking over. Relationships may not fit conventional assumptions, or you may want support around polyamory, kink, sex and intimacy without having to educate your therapist first. I work with teens and adults, as well as couples and groups, who want a candid, affirming place to feel more at home in themselves.

My Background and Approach

My approach is collaborative, compassionate and sex positive. I use ACT, CBT, DBT, mentalization-based therapy and sex therapy to help you understand what happens inside you and between you and other people. We may examine an anxiety loop, practice tolerating uncertainty, slow down a relationship rupture or clarify the values you want your choices to reflect. I will follow your pace while still helping the work move. Therapy can hold humor, complexity and honest conversation without reducing your identity or relationships to a diagnosis.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a nonbinary clinician, I care about creating a space where identity does not need to be defended or translated. I believe people deserve relationships and ways of living built around consent, honesty and what genuinely fits them, not around convention for its own sake. I bring a social-justice lens to the work and value curiosity over judgment. Outside of sessions, yoga and time in nature help me reconnect. Visit my website to book your first session with me.
