Effective holistic therapy for New Yorkers.

Personalized mental health therapy to help you live your best life.

Does life feel hard right now?

If work stress, relationship pressures, and parenting kids have been overwhelming, life can feel unmanageable. You might be exhausted all the time. You just want to slow down and enjoy the moment, but your brain will not shut off. Do you find it hard to get out of bed or focus during the day? If you said yes, you are not alone.

It is tough to live in New York.

But therapy can help.

What you may want to know about working with me…

I believe what exercise does for the body, therapy does for the mind. When the mind is healthy, it’s able to function better—it’s able to focus, produce happy emotions, and consider different perspectives. In other words, when the mind is unshackled, it is in balance.

I’ve been a therapist for over twenty years, and I take an intentional approach to help you feel safe, seen, and heard. With that as a starting point, I work with you to clarify your goals and needs, introduce therapy methods known to be effective, and combine them with a personalized mindfulness practice to help you heal the parts of you that unknowingly react. We create a plan based on your goals and objectives and track progress along the way.

My area of focus is relationship challenges, narcissistic abuse, anxiety, depression, career stress, and family rupture. I have a special interest in supporting gifted, purpose-driven women who are sensitive to the inner and outer workings of their lives.

Individual Therapy

Working with gifted, purpose-driven women who are sensitive to their internal and external lives is at the heart of
what I do.

I’m a NYS (NJ) licensed psychotherapist with an MSW from New York University, a multi-certified holistic health professional, and a former contributing writer for
Dr. Deepak Chopra’s global platform.

I started my professional career over twenty years ago at Bellevue Hospital’s E.R., inpatient services, and the Men’s Shelter. Since then, my work has evolved to include community-based care, workshops, publications, meditation trainings, and individual and group psychotherapy. I’ve found that when mind-body approaches are incorporated with “talk therapy,” healing occurs more rapidly.

Apart from my therapy practice, I’ve published a number of articles on the intersection of mental health and mindfulness practices, offered community discussions, participated in talks on biomarkers of health and illness, and conducted webinars on emotional intelligence and resilience.

I’ve been recognized as an expert in Women’s Health magazine on the subject of narcissistic abuse, collaborated with Columbia University, and participated briefly with NASW-NYS.
