Education
Hunter College, Master of Education, 2025
Work HistoryMy clinical experience is primarily with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and challenges associated with autism and ADHD. I have worked with clients struggling with grief, life and career transitions, relationship concerns, and self-esteem issues. As a queer therapist, I bring lived experiences and cultural humility to my practice. I affirm and welcome clients from neurodiverse, LGBTQIA+, kink, polyamorous, and sex work communities. Driven by a deep interest in individual experiences, I prioritize building strong rapport and relational connection with clients. I offer a trauma-informed, affirming space to explore identity, process emotions, and set meaningful goals. My style is warm, curious, nonjudgmental, and often humorous.
