Here to Help You Heal
As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), my work is rooted in a simple but deeply held belief: every person deserves a space where they feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, stress, or a significant life transition, or simply taking steps toward personal growth, I'm here to walk alongside you.
Working with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, my approach is grounded in the power of human resilience. Together, we explore patterns, build greater self-understanding, and move toward meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you discover your strengths, develop effective strategies, and take real steps toward a happier, healthier version of yourself.
My Approach to Care
A patient-centered approach is at the heart of everything I do. This means encouraging you to take an active role in shaping your therapeutic space and identifying goals that feel meaningful and relevant to your life. From there, we build on your existing strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and work toward your personal goals with confidence and resilience. My style is adaptable by design, ensuring you feel understood, supported, and empowered in a way that honors your unique personality and needs.
For younger patients and those who may not yet have the words to express what they're feeling, I draw on play therapy and expressive arts therapy to create room for communication and processing that feels natural and comfortable. For older adolescents and adults, I integrate Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness techniques into a flexible, personalized approach.
A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care
Through my own experiences of learning to find my voice, build confidence, and advocate for myself, I came to understand firsthand how transformative it can be to feel truly seen and supported. That foundation shapes everything about how I show up for patients today.
To every session, I bring empathy, genuine curiosity, and a deep belief in each person's unique capacity to heal, adapt, and grow. You won't find a one-size-fits-all approach here. What you will find is a therapist who is fully invested in you and committed to creating an environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to do the work that matters most.
Personal Interests
When I'm not in the therapy room, you can find me reading, working through the New York Times games, or spending time with friends and family. Music is a big part of my life, whether that means discovering new artists, catching live concerts, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.
