Therapist / Counselor (Qualifying)

About Me

I am a qualifying therapist and counselor holding a Mental Health Counselor limited permit in New York. I offer individual, psychodynamic, and somatic therapy plus advocacy for people facing addiction, anxiety, mood disorders, family issues, or major life transitions.

Approach

My approach is relational, integrative, and trauma-informed. I draw from psychodynamic and attachment-based perspectives to explore patterns that show up in relationships, using authenticity and the therapeutic bond as tools for healing. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients understand their inner parts and develop self-leadership, and incorporate somatic and mindfulness practices to ground emotions in the body. Rooted in cultural humility and compassion, I view symptoms as adaptive responses rather than pathology, combining depth work with practical skills from CBT, ACT, and DBT to support emotional regulation, self-understanding, and more authentic connection with self and others.
