Your Trusted Psychotherapist in NYC for Anxiety & Depression
With over a decade of experience as a licensed psychotherapist in New York State, I provide compassionate, client-centered therapy focused on empowering individuals and couples to overcome challenges. My practice centers intersectionality, recognizing how social identities and systemic oppression impact mental health. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, family dynamics, trauma, and identity issues, offering both in-person and telehealth sessions.

Holding a graduate degree from New York University and a background in psychology from Boston University, I create a nonjudgmental space where clients develop practical skills to achieve their goals. Featured in Bustle, I bring cultural competence and a no-nonsense approach to therapy, helping clients navigate life transitions, relationships, and self-esteem with clarity and support.
