I am a skilled and experienced psychotherapist who offers long and short term individual therapy to young adults and the Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). Working with these populations, I recognize the importance of looking at the current technological culture and its influence on our well-being. I consider modern day disconnects and take notice to how people use social media and its effect on mood and self-esteem.

 

I received a Master of Arts degree in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University. Before transitioning to private practice, I trained as a clinician at the Karen Horney Clinic and became certified in the advance clinical practice of psychodynamic therapy. I am accredited on hsperson.com as a Highly Sensitive Therapist.

​

My educational training continues as a candidate in psychoanalysis at the American Institute of Psychoanalysis (AIP). Most recently, I serve as a case supervisor to students from Guangzhou, China who are participating in an online psychodynamic psychotherapy training program developed with AIP.

​

The depth of my training and knowledge allows me to work effectively with a range of issues and concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma and eating disorders. Offering new understandings and possibilities, my therapeutic approach includes the perspective of Buddhist Psychology.

​

I am a curious, compassionate listener who considers all aspects of your life and personality, not just the symptoms.
