I specialize in working with adolescents, college students, and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and related concerns. While I specialize in using a cognitive behavioral (CBT) approach, it may also be useful to integrate insight-oriented therapies, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing approaches, depending on specific client needs. I utilize tailored approaches with clients to help them become the best versions of themselves. Therapy looks different for everyone, as it should. No matter what each client’s goals are, I emphasize trusting the process. From my perspective you are the expert on yourself; I follow your lead. I work to meet my clients where they are which means that stepping on the gas or pumping the brakes is up to you, allowing you to feel a sense of control during sessions. My hope is that you will feel like you are talking with someone who is genuinely interested in helping you reach your goals, whatever they may be.

I have had the pleasure of working with creative professionals and entrepreneurs who struggle with depression, anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, acculturation difficulties, career concerns, and identity issues. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients achieve the best version of themselves. I typically use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based techniques. However, I strongly believe that the effectiveness of therapy lies in the therapeutic relationship. I view therapy as a collaborative effort between the client and the therapist.

As a counselor under supervision at Next Level Mental Health Counseling, I'm interested in working with folks experiencing anxiety, depression, body image concerns, eating disorders, LGBTQ+ issues, sex/intimacy concerns, neurodivergence, life transitions, and many more. I would love to build a collaborative, supportive, and compassionate space where we can explore your life history, narratives, thoughts, feelings, and more. I have experience working with children on the autism spectrum, as well as with ADHD, PICA, and OCD. I have also worked with students aged K-12 as well as college students. My prior clinical work was in a higher-level of care eating disorder facility where I developed nuanced understandings of eating disorders across a wide spectrum of experiences.

Do you find yourself relentlessly pursuing the expectations of others without considering what you expect or want for yourself? Early adulthood can be tumultuous, with major life transitions, evolving relationship dynamics, and challenging academic or professional responsibilities. Frequent changes and uncertainty may leave you feeling burned out and may trigger stress, frustration, or symptoms of anxiety or depression. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by everything that we believe we need to do and need to be. I will help you challenge your assumptions which may have you feeling stuck. My goal is to provide you with a welcoming space to be heard and to process your thoughts and feelings. Let’s explore new perspectives, answer thought-provoking questions, and examine your self-talk. Insights from those discussions will help us identify behavioral patterns which may be contributing to your distress. We will collaboratively develop a plan to adjust those reactions to create balance in your life, while prioritizing what is practical and important to you. This personalized approach will help you build confidence, manage stress, and effectively communicate with those you care about or work closely with. You and I will leverage your strengths to develop a more sustainable lifestyle with meaning and purpose. MSW, Columbia University BS, Cornell University
