I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and psychotherapist based in New York. I earned my Master of Social Work with a Field of Specialization in Gender and Sexuality from Hunter College. I also completed a 2-year trauma therapy program at the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy and I am certified in the practice of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Before these more recent years in private practice, I spent several years working with both survivors and perpetrators of intimate partner violence and sexual assault. This experience has given me a nuanced understanding of the complex dynamics that can fuel acting-out behaviors and unhealthy patterns in relationships. When encountering these realities in clinical work, I approach them with non-judgmental curiosity, helping clients move through stigma and shame toward self-compassion, deeper understanding, and a tangible sense of autonomy.

As a therapist, I draw on my appreciation for storytelling—whether through music, movies, theatre, books, or photography (the photos on this website are some of my own amateur shots!). I also value exercise and time spent outdoors, recognizing their important role in emotional regulation. I thoughtfully integrate these tools, along with your own personal interests and experiences, into our work together of exploration and restoration.

I am passionate about what I do. I’m deeply committed to this work and honored to be trusted with your story. I genuinely enjoy the process—the conversations, insights, challenges, and the moments of humor that make healing possible.
