I earned my M.Ed. from Columbia University, Teachers College in 2023 and specialize in working with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. My approach is collaborative and adaptable, drawing from ACT, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, build on your strengths, and develop tools to help you move through life with more clarity and intention. If you’re looking for a space that truly supports your growth and reflects who you are, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
My Clients
Even when things appear fine on the outside, anxiety, depression, or relationship struggles can create an undercurrent of stress that’s hard to ignore. You might feel disconnected from your partner, uncertain about your own needs, or stuck in patterns that leave you feeling unseen or emotionally drained. I work with adults to navigate these challenges with curiosity and compassion—supporting growth that feels both meaningful and sustainable.
