Accepting clients Last Updated 7 days ago

Most of my clients are the ones who hold it all together. Thoughtful, capable, high-achieving — and quietly overwhelmed. If anxiety, OCD, or old patterns are running the show beneath the surface, and you're ready to actually do something about it, this is a space for that.

I blend CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed approaches — not a one-size-fits-all formula, but a mix built around what you actually need. We build concrete skills for managing anxiety in real life while also getting to the root of the patterns keeping you stuck.

You don't have to keep carrying the mental load alone. Reach out today — let's move past getting by and build something that actually holds.

*Insurance & Fees* I am in-network with Aetna and Northwell Direct. For all other major insurance companies, I am an out of network provider. My office provides a superbill for you to submit for reimbursement and we will assist you in verifying your benefits to make the process as seamless as possible. I also offer a sliding scale rate for those in need. Please reach out to learn more about how we can start this work together.
