About Me

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I offer a warm, confidential space to explore your concerns. I guide individuals navigating life’s complexities, helping you understand experiences and develop practical strategies. Our sessions focus on your unique strengths, building resilience and moving towards meaningful change. I aim to create a collaborative environment where you feel truly heard and supported.

Approach

That sense of safety becomes a steady frame for work that is practical and curiosity-driven. I meet with adults, couples, families and groups in Manhattan and by secure online sessions in English, keeping a calm, focused pace so we can notice patterns without rushing. We track thoughts and reactions, try short grounding or reflective practices in-session, and turn insights into manageable steps you can use between meetings. People navigating loss, transition, or burnout often find this grounded, collaborative rhythm helpful.
