I earned my Masters Degree in Social Work at Fordham University and have since gained valuable experience working with individuals and families in a variety of settings.

I provide culturally sensitive, trauma-informed care, and draw from several modalities, depending on client needs.

I have experience treating a variety of diagnoses, specializing in trauma, anxiety, depression, and attachment issues.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience supporting adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

I specialize in working with individuals who are balancing demanding responsibilities whether in caregiving roles, professional environments, or complex family systems and feel overwhelmed trying to manage everything on their own. I also work with professionals in healthcare, education, and other helping roles who are experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, or role-related stress.

My clinical background includes leadership roles in hospital-based behavioral health programs, including intensive community treatment and outpatient mental health services. I bring that depth of experience into my private practice by offering structured, practical support that helps clients regain stability, clarity, and confidence during difficult periods.

As an experienced psychotherapist, I believe that an empathic approach creates an environment, in which, trust and curiosity can flourished, facilitating the adjustment to an already difficult process. The relationship between psychotherapist and patient constitutes an important tool, in the understanding of patient's past and present behaviors.

After 18 years as a psychologist, working with adults and couples, I have the experience and skills to build a treatment program that fits your needs, and to keep the therapy feeling safe and comfortable. I have an open-minded, sensitive, and collaborative approach to therapy.

There was a time when I felt trapped by anxiety, depression, and overwhelm. I spent years feeling like I was constantly reacting to the world around me—easily overwhelmed, shutting down, and unsure how to move forward. I was living in a hypervigiliant state - always on edge, feeling unsafe in relationships and in my aloneness. This was also followed with depressive states followed by shame and guilt. Working with a Practitioner in Somatic Experiencing has transformed my emotional well being by helping my brain and body recognize safety and reducing my sensitivity to unpleasant sensations and arousal. I now feel more in control, I welcome unpleasant bodily sensations when they show up, and feel more safe in my body.

Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a constant state of survival mode? Overwhelmed by stress, emotionally drained, or just going through the motions of life? Reaching out for help takes courage, and you don’t have to navigate this alone. Taking the first steps toward therapy can feel overwhelming, I know, because I’ve been there too. My goal is to help you navigate this process by providing a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. I work primarily with young adults in their 20’s and 30’s who are navigating anxiety, trauma, family and relationship issues, stress, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy seeking to gain a deeper understanding of themselves, their experiences, and the reasons behind their emotions.
