For adults who want clarity, confidence, and change that shows up in real life.
I offer a focused virtual private practice for residents of NY, CT, NJ.
Psychotherapy for Lasting Change.
Most of my clients come in because something in their life isn’t working the way it used to. And they’re ready for it to feel different.
My background, experience, and training allow me to recognize patterns quickly and work at a level of depth that supports long-term change.
I don’t follow a protocol. I pay attention. To you. To what shifts. To what repeats. To what shows up. I tend to name what’s happening in a way that brings clarity and direction.
We work with what’s happening now, address what’s urgent, and look at what shaped it, so the same cycle doesn’t keep repeating.
The goal is not endless insight. It is change that shows up in your relationships, your work, and the way you feel in your daily life.

At the same time, you’ll leave with concrete tools you can use immediately:
calm your body before anxiety escalates
interrupt spirals before they take over
stay present in difficult conversations
make decisions without polling everyone else first
recover more quickly after setbacks
Good fit for people who…
replay conversations and wonder if they handled it the right way
struggle to say no without feeling guilty after
question their own reactions and look for reassurance before trusting it
feel hurt and pull back instead of explaining what they needed
feel angry with someone they love and then feel bad for feeling that way
work hard, achieve a lot, and still feel behind
stay in situations that make them uneasy because leaving would feel worse
promise themselves this relationship will be different and slowly watch it follow the same script
compare themselves to others and feel a quiet spike of not-enough
sense that something isn’t working (in their relationships, their career, or themselves) but don’t know how to shift it
Areas of focus
chronic overthinking and internal pressure
perfectionism , self-criticism and achievement-driven identity
difficulty trusting your own judgment
feeling responsible for other people’s emotions
people pleasing and difficulty setting boundaries
relational patterns that repeat despite insight
emotional intensity that is hidden under competence
feeling internally conflicted despite outward success
low mood or emotional disconnection
burnout that does not resolve with rest
trauma and unresolved emotional experiences
major life transitions (career changes, parenthood, divorce, relocation)
_____________________________________________________________
What changes
less time spent rehearsing and replaying conversations
reactions become chosen instead of automatic
clearer boundaries and less guilt after setting them
decisions that feel deliberate instead of second-guessed
earlier awareness of patterns before they create damage
more direct communication
anxiety feels manageable instead of constant
greater clarity about who you are and what you want
Understanding is important. Change is the point.
Why work with me.
I work directly and collaboratively. Sessions feel conversational and natural, but they are intentional. I’m actively thinking with you.
You are the expert on your life. My role is to notice what might be harder to see from the inside, help untangle what feels confusing, and put words to what’s difficult to name while organizing what feels complicated (mixed feelings, big reactions, patterns you understand intellectually but can’t shift, guilt that doesn’t quite make sense, anxiety that feels disproportionate, difficulty trusting your own decisions).
I won’t rush you. I also won’t leave you circling the same point for months. If something important is being avoided, we’ll gently go toward it in a way that feels workable and safe enough to explore. If something needs time, we give it time.
My style is active and grounded in practical tools that help you function better day to day, alongside deeper work that shifts the patterns underneath.
I take the work seriously. I don’t take myself too seriously. We can talk about hard things. And sometimes even laugh in the middle of them.
Getting Started.
