About

Greetings!

My name is Bridget (pronouns: she/her) and I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience providing psychotherapy to adults who face depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, LGBTQ+ issues, and relationship challenges.

I am also certified in perinatal mental health (PMH-C) and provide perinatal mental health services for new, expecting, and hopeful parents. This includes pregnancy, postpartum, infertility and loss, and adoption.

HOW I WORK
My approach is warm, interactive, practical, and empathic, and I draw from psychodynamic, feminist, trauma-informed, anti-racist, and LGBTQ+-affirming treatment models. I am a passionate advocate for the right to reproductive choice – without exception.

As an abolitionist social worker, I am deeply committed to empowering marginalized communities and dismantling systems of oppression, white supremacy, and patriarchy.

I use sensitivity, creativity, and humor to help you achieve peace, freedom, and fulfillment – on your own terms. You are the expert on you. Together we will assess your concerns and establish a plan to meet your needs, building on your internal wisdom and power.

MY BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE
I have practiced individual and family psychotherapy since 2007 and earned my Masters in Social Work with Honors from the Hunter College School of Social Work in New York. I have extensive clinical experience with clients from diverse racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and spiritual backgrounds – in private practice, community mental health clinics, college counseling centers, clinical research programs, and court-based settings.

I have received postgraduate training from the NYU Institute for Psychoanalytic Education, and have trained in perinatal mental health, internal family systems, somatic experiencing, trauma-informed therapy, and motivational interviewing. In 2020, I also completed a yoga teacher training program (200-hour).
