Personal Statement
When we are deeply and mindfully connected to our values, the path to a fulfilling life becomes more clear. There's no better place than a trusted therapy environment to establish and strengthen that connection. Together we'll explore and set specific goals, using a collaborative approach, while tapping into modalities that work best for you. Whether that be Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, mindfulness-based therapy for anxiety, or understanding how past traumas influence your life. My approach is integrative, emphasizing modern evidence-based treatments, proven to make real meaningful change.
I specialize in OCD, anxiety, trauma, and perfectionism. I also have extensive experience working with relationship issues, life transitions, and emotion dysregulation. Therapy will first start off with an intake process so I can understand exactly what you are looking for, your history, and treatment goals. Once we establish goals and treatment planning, I will typically provide psychoeducation and skills tailored to your current symptoms. Then depending on your goals, we will utilize evidence-based treatments to fit your exact needs. Many clients have described my style as direct, warm, humorous and most of all authentic.
Finding a good client-therapist fit can be a hard and frustrating process! I am happy to discuss any questions or concerns you might have during a free 15-minute consultation before scheduling a first session. I am licensed in both NY & CT, offering in-person sessions in NYC. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
