About My Clients

You may look like you have it together while privately feeling anxious, overwhelmed, angry, disconnected, or stuck in the same patterns. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, anger and emotional regulation, low self-esteem, men’s issues, unwanted sexual behaviors, and difficult life transitions. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy—we’ll identify what isn’t working and build a realistic path forward together.

My Background and Approach

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York providing telehealth therapy for adults. My approach is collaborative, practical, and solution-focused. I believe insight matters, but therapy should also give you tools you can actually use outside of our sessions. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused strategies, skill building, and a strengths-based approach to help you better understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. Together, we identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck and develop strategies that fit your actual life—not an idealized version of it. I especially enjoy working with clients who want to better manage anxiety, anger or emotional reactions, strengthen relationships, improve self-esteem, or change behaviors they no longer want controlling their lives. My role isn’t to judge or tell you how to live. It’s to help you understand what’s happening, build your own “playbook,” and feel confident.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe people deserve a therapy space where they can be honest—even about the things that are difficult, uncomfortable, embarrassing, or complicated to say out loud. You shouldn’t have to edit yourself because you’re worried about being judged. I value authenticity, humor, curiosity, personal responsibility, and meeting people where they are. I also believe meaningful change usually happens through small, realistic steps rather than trying to completely reinvent yourself overnight. Therapy with me is collaborative. I won’t pretend to have all the answers about your life—you know yourself better than anyone. My job is to help you notice patterns, ask the questions that may be difficult to ask yourself, offer another perspective, and give you practical tools to try. We can take the work seriously without every moment of therapy having to feel heavy.
