What does a first session with you look like?
In our first session, you can expect a safe, supportive, and open space where we’ll begin to explore what brought you to therapy and set the groundwork for the journey ahead. As your therapist, I commit to sitting in the passenger seat as you drive through life. You’re in control, and my role is to offer guidance, support, and help you navigate the obstacles you encounter along the way.
What is your style/approach to therapy?
In our work together, I use curiosity as a tool to explore your story, helping you gain deeper insight into yourself and your emotions. I believe that curiosity opens the door to self-discovery, and together, we can create a path to healing and growth that feels right for you.

Work History
I’ve had the honor of working with a wide range of clients, each with their own unique experiences, across various settings. I completed my graduate internship at Love and Kindness Wellness Services, where I trained in Indigenous Tools for Living, an approach focused on considering the whole person, including their intergenerational ways of knowing and being, when assisting clients on their journey of personal development and creating a strong connection to their sense of purpose and meaning. When utilizing Indigenous Tools for Living, I am committed to healing complex trauma while bringing the core values of various communities and their traditions to the room. My background also includes working with children in the New York City public school setting in addition to older adults who have experienced challenges associated with aging in Upper Manhattan.
