“Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within.” - Gabor Maté

Psychotherapy for adults in California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Florida

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who offers individual psychotherapy virtually for clients throughout California, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Florida. My approach is experientially focused, which is geared towards rapidly getting to the core of issues causing high stress and difficulty

I work with people with various kinds of challenges, and I view people through the framework of childhood development, attachment, and intergenerational trauma. A core belief in my work is that each person has an innate intelligence which moves them towards wholeness and growth. Due to childhood experiences, sociocultural factors, and various forms of adversity, people’s innate wisdom can be obscured by survival oriented parts of themselves. These survival based burdens can manifest in any number of ways, including emotional blockage, relationship struggles, depression, anxiety, workaholism, limiting beliefs about the self, and unsustainable ways of coping. Our work is to compassionately inquire and explore what is happening inside, and to re-access this innate intelligence. I consider one of my key roles to assist you in the development and practice of self-study through mindfulness, imagination, and experimentation.

Success to me means my clients safely moving out of survival mode and living in connection with their intrinsic vitality, core values, courage, and compassion.
