About Me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a focus on adolescents and adults navigating life transitions, career changes, dating and relationships, anxiety, and self-esteem. My goal is to provide you with a safe, trustworthy, and non-judgmental space. Together, we’ll harness your inner strength and resilience so that you begin to experience greater self-compassion, motivation, and confidence.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in finance in New York City where I struggled to strike a balance between work and my personal life. I understand that it is not uncommon for high-achieving individuals to struggle with anxiety, imposter syndrome, or finding fulfillment and purpose. So often people are on autopilot, simply going through the motions of your life without the joy or energy you once had. My life experience has given me a level of understanding as it relates to navigating life in a high stress job in today’s world.

In addition to working with professionals and career changers, I specialize in working with people who are navigating life transitions and identity development, helping you to figure out what it all means and shaping the stories we tell ourselves. So often we feel stuck in an endless cycle of anxiety and depression, or overwhelmed by the daily pressures of balancing work, relationships, and everything in between. I practice collaboratively, empathically, and fully from the notion of meeting individuals where they are at, and not utilizing a one-size-fits all approach.

Therapy is a space where you can be your full, authentic self. I am committed to building our connected resilience in an increasingly disconnected world.
