About

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in working with couples and individual adults. I love working with people who are ready to take the next steps towards emotional or relational health. This includes working with individuals for things such as anxiety, grief, stress, family relationships, or life transitions, as well as couples who are looking for help due to marital conflict, communication, trust, or infidelity issues. I also enjoy working with engaged couples in premarital counseling.

I earned a Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Alliance Graduate School of Counseling at Nyack College. I have received training and supervision in Emotionally Focused Therapy, an approach that focuses on strengthening a couple’s connection and building emotional trust and safety between partners. I am a certified Prepare/Enrich facilitator and have completed Gottman Level 1. I have also received training in Discernment Counseling, a type of counseling for couples who are uncertain about whether or not to pursue couples therapy or to get a divorce.

As a systemically trained therapist, I approach therapy in a holistic way to help my clients reach their goals both individually and in their relationships. I have extensive experience working with people from mulitple different cultural backgrounds, which has informed my therapeutic perspective, taking into account each person’s different experiences, including families, cultures, work, health, and past experiences.

I am dedicated to providing a judgment-free space for each person I work with, celebrating all parts of each person’s unique identity. All are welcome, celebrated for who they are, and treated with compassion, kindness, and respect.
