About My Clients
You might feel caught in familiar patterns, having the same conflicts over and over again. Depression and anxiety might show up like a cloud covering the sun, or past experiences may feel like a burden you will carry forever. These moments might lead to intense feelings of frustration and anger, or a desire to fully check out. By holding a space that is both curious and honest, our work together can help you find ways of moving through the world that feel positive, healthy, and empowering.
My Background and Approach
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who has extensive experience working with adults in New York City as they navigate a wide array of struggles. I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ population, helping individuals manage challenging work environments, and exploring interpersonal patterns. I enjoy working with people across a wide range of race, gender, sexuality and life experiences, including artists, executives, healthcare workers and veterans. I’m particularly passionate about helping individuals identify the unique ways they respond to life’s demands, recognizing how these factors shape their resilience and personal growth. Additionally, I have extensive training in trauma-focused treatments, including certification in Cognitive Processing Therapy. My work with individuals is largely informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and relational psychotherapy. As a couples therapist, I draw from an Emotion Focused Therapy model.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
All people are inherently oriented towards growth and repair, and increased insight can help remove barriers to change that accumulate over time. By exploring the ways that you relate to yourself and to others, you are able to: - Recognize patterns in your life as they are occurring, and identify the points in which a change is possible. - Explore the role that societal and cultural pressures play in your daily experience. - Reduce anxiety and increase confidence associated with stressful situations, especially at moments of major life transitions. - Feel comfortable within your emotional world and hold agency in your relationships, including strengthening healthy boundaries and deepening intimacy.
