My Therapy Style

I love helping people live their best lives. For some people, that means managing anxiety or depression, starting a relationship, or ending one. Sometimes we need some help navigating the feelings that come along with life changes related to parenting, work, and finding meaning. I use a cognitive approach to increase insight and understanding about who we are and why we do what we do.

I am experienced working with couples as well as with mental health professionals. During our sessions, you can expect respect, expertise, kindness, humor, and a safe place to be yourself. I look forward to speaking with you!

Get to Know Me

What are your interests outside of work?

I enjoy reading and walking in the city. I love to cook for friends and family, but I think I like to try new restaurants even more. I am a slow, but dedicated runner.

What book have you read more than once?

Women Who Run with Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype by Clarissa Pinkola Estes. This book explores the stories that shape us and the stories we tell about ourselves.

Favorite organization/non-profit?

City Harvest in New York City. They rescue and repurpose millions of pounds of food every year and delivery it free of charge to hungry New Yorkers. It's a great community organization, and the organization itself is a great community!

How do you recharge?

Running, swimming, talking with friends, singing in the car, and walking through museums.

Do you have any pets?

I live with a very snooty cat who much prefers my husband to me!
