About Me
It is common to know you’re not feeling your best, without being able to put your finger on what is causing your dis-ease. I want to know who you are, what your values are, and all the identities you hold that impact your movement through the world. You are the expert of your own life and determine the agenda, yet our space will be collaborative and we will work together to set meaningful therapy goals and a path for achieving them. I will help you tune into your internal experiences, find self-compassion, and identify new ways of responding that feel authentic to you.
Education & Experience
I earned my master’s degrees in social work and public health from Columbia University in 2015 and I am credentialed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York and Colorado and a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) in Colorado. I provide teletherapy to people residing in both states. Over the past 10 years, I have provided psychotherapy to people living with HIV and other chronic illnesses, people directly and indirectly impacted by the criminal injustice system, new parents and those trying to conceive, and people receiving services through community mental health centers and in private psychotherapy practice. Having worked in and supported staff in nonprofits for a long time, I am keenly aware of the effects of burnout and compassion fatigue. I am a certified compassion fatigue professional and bring this lens to my clinical work and professional supervision and consultation.
