Licensed in

“My background is in individual therapy with children, adolescents, and young adults, parent management training, play therapy, and family therapy.”
What was your path to becoming a therapist?
As a bicultural and native New Yorker, I am dedicated to providing a safe and nonjudgmental therapeutic space for individuals of all backgrounds. The idea of therapy can be difficult for so many because of mental health stigmas, cultural stigmas, and the lack of connection with professionals.
What should someone know about working with you?
My background is in individual therapy with children, adolescents, and young adults, parent management training, play therapy, and family therapy. I approach each session with the intention of building a strong rapport with clients and appreciate the vulnerability and courage present in the room.
What do you do to continue learning and building competencies as a provider?
As therapists, we are often seen as the experts in the room, yet it is important to understand that clients are the experts in their lives and we can demonstrate this by being constant learners. I try every year to engage in continuing education courses and am currently taking a course through the Trauma Research Foundation.
