I received my master’s degree in Social Work from New York University. I’ve worked in various settings including schools, outpatient mental health clinics, & private practice. I have provided therapy to individuals, couples, groups, & families of many different backgrounds. Some of my training includes EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Gottman Method Couples Therapy (Level 1 certified), Grief Counseling, & Sex Therapy.

I am originally from NJ, lived in NYC for almost a decade until I moved out to Portland, OR where I am currently based. I have been a practicing therapist since 2018. My areas of focus have been trauma, eating disorders/body image issues, anxiety, perinatal mental health, grief/loss & relationship challenges.

I am diligent about ensuring that I provide non-judgmental services to my clients. I use my self-awareness and direct/transparent communication style to acknowledge my identity as a cis-white-het woman and how my privilege comes into contact with my clients. I have experience working with members of the LGBTQ+ community and am passionate about providing gender affirming care.
