About me
I am a licensed mental health counselor helping young adults struggling with substance use, trauma, anxiety, anger, and relationships.
I provide virtual individual therapy, EMDR therapy, and clincial supervision to those living in New York state. I specialize in trauma, substance use, anxiety, anger, and relationships. I help young adults move toward healing and living more comfortably.
I draw from Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Person-Centered Therapy, tailoring my approach to what works best for you. My work focuses on helping clients understand their inner experiences, sit with emotions safely, and use what arises in session to create lasting change.
Through my experience working as a substance use counselor at a residential treatment center and currently in a group private practice, I have seen how having a nonjudgmental, supportive other can help people start to have self-compassion and move toward healing.
