I want you to know you don't have to have everything figured out.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're trying to manage anxiety, relationships, school, work, or big life changes all at once. You might be questioning yourself, wondering if you're doing enough, or feeling like everyone else has it figured out.

If you're feeling stuck or unsure where to begin, you don't have to navigate it alone.

I want therapy to feel like a place where you can slow down, be yourself, and explore what's been weighing on you without feeling judged. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward the goals that matter most to you.

I'll encourage you, support you, and celebrate the progress you make along the way. My hope is that you'll leave therapy feeling more confident in yourself and better equipped to handle whatever life brings next.

A place to slow down, sort things out, and move forward with confidence.

I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from the College of Staten Island before completing my Master of Social Work at Fordham University. Since then, I've worked with adolescents and young adults in both school and outpatient mental health settings, supporting people through anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

When we work together, my goal is to help you better understand yourself while building the confidence to handle life's challenges in a way that feels authentic to you. I'll ask thoughtful questions, help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and work alongside you to find approaches that fit your life and your goals.

I draw from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) principles to help you better understand your emotions, strengthen healthy coping strategies, and respond to life's challenges with greater confidence. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can be honest with yourself, celebrate your progress, and learn from setbacks without feeling like you've failed.
