When we struggle with setting boundaries, building authentic relationships, or adapting to life changes, we often feel out of balance and disconnected from our true selves.

When grappling with hard questions like these, I am here to accompany you on your path to healing. With a nurturing and understanding approach, I create a safe envi...

My approach combines traditional and leading-edge psychotherapy training with modern psychoanalytic principles to create a thoughtful, depth-oriented treatment tailored to your unique needs.

Being from upstate NY, I also understand some of the isolative parts of the experience, and adj...

I am particularly well-suited for college students, as I ran a research team with students for more than ten years and won the top mentoring awards at both of the universities where I was a professor. As a former professor, I do have a unique understanding of young adults and their needs. The clients who fit best with me tend to be bright and intuitive and perhaps even “overthinkers” who I often teach to think less, ironically! :) My clients come to me for a number of reasons, but one co...
