“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”

ABOUT

ABOUT ME

ABOUT ME

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, children, adolescents, and families to help them better understand themselves and each other. I have an awareness of my social identities and am open to working with all ethnicities, gender identities, and sexual orientations. I'm fluent in English and Spanish, and conversant in Portuguese and Hebrew. 

EDUCATION 
  • MA in Counseling Psychology, California Institute of Integral Studies

  • Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, Hunter College

  • Certified in Gestalt Play Therapy

  • Certified in Reflective Parenting (RPP)

  • Certified in TF-CBT

  • Certificate in Child and Adolescent Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, New Center for Psychoanalysis (NCP)

  • Trained in Hakomi Somatic Psychotherapy 

APPROACH

My work is rooted in Attachment Theory with a strong component of Mindfulness and Reflective Parenting. I also incorporate elements of Gestalt Therapy and Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy.

​

Helping you achieve your goals--whether in your relationships, your parenting style, or your career--begins with a strong therapeutic relationship. My approach to working with you combines evidence-based practices, but even more importantly, an immense amount of empathy, curiosity, and a deep sense of wonder about you so we can build a client-therapist relationship that is based on trust.

​

I meet you where you are, offering a compassionate presence that allows you to look at yourself and others with more care, grace, and understanding. I employ both a somatic approach--centering the therapeutic process on how feelings are experienced in the body--and mindfulness techniques so you can feel safe to explore your emotions.
