ABOUT ME

Serving clients since 2010

IMG_3540_edited_edited.jpg

I'm a NY State licensed Psychotherapist committed to helping my clients experience enhanced well being. While I earned  an MSW degree from Fordham University in 2005, I consider myself a life-long learner. I continue to enhance my existing skills while developing new techniques in order to best address the diverse needs of my clients. Please ask me more about my specific practice  modalities when we meet- I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Please see the SERVICES section to read more about my offerings. I am guided by the belief that there is no "good" or "bad", "right" or "wrong" way to achieve life satisfaction. There is only how you are currently living and how you would like to be living. Let's find out what that means for you and how to access it.

ALL ABOUT THERAPY

The world sometimes feels designed to distract us from our core truths: We are wise and whole and full of wonder. Therapy can help us to remember.  

Therapy is an act of self care. Holistic Psychotherapy seeks to nurture minds, bodies and spirits. Whether you have been struggling with life's challenges for a while, you have just recently experienced a set back, or you are simply seeking maintenance and personal growth, we will work together to address your needs, building the internal and external resources you need to live the fulfilling life you want. 


I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to the needs of each person. My style is Relational and Humanistic; it is my belief that the relationship between client and therapist is what truly fosters personal transformation. Our greatest need is to be seen, heard and feel connected- to ourselves and others. I look forward to exploring the possibilities with you.

SOMATIC COACHING & REIKI

A Happier, Healthier You

Reiki is a form of energy healing originating in Japan. It can address all aspects of well-being: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies. An attuned practitioner uses Qi (life-force energy) to promote gentle healing. 


Somatic Movement (SAH Method)

A combination of mindfulness, breathwork, intentional movement and ecstatic dance that helps individuals connect with their bodies, process stuck emotional residue and promote self- liberated healing.

KETAMINE ASSISTED THERAPY (KAP)

Remove Blocks

I am partnered with Journey Clinical to offer KAP to clients who feel stuck in their treatment, want to experience life in a more peaceful way and help clear emotional and mental blocks that have been inhibiting meaningful relationships with themselves and others. Extensive research has shown that Ketamine Assisted Therapy can offer safe and effective relief for depression, PTSD, anxiety and a number of other mental health conditions. Curious? Let's talk about if KAP is right for you.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Here For You

I implement effective psychotherapy methods to empower self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. 
I believe that each person has the answers they seek already inside of them. What I do is help each client access parts of themselves they have forgotten.
