Clients I Work With

I provide therapy to women who are high-achieving on the outside but struggling on the inside. Women who've been told they're "too sensitive" or "too much." Women who are tired of performing and are ready to heal.

Approach

I specialize in therapy for women who've spent years feeling like they're never quite enough. The anxiety that keeps you up at night, the perfectionism that drives you to exhaustion, the shame you carry about your past aren't “character flaws”. They're patterns that developed for a reason, and we can change them. Using EMDR therapy and other trauma-informed approaches, including Internal Family Systems theray (IFS), we'll go straight to the source of your challenges, not just managing symptoms or talking about the same issues week after week. Our work will include actually processing the experiences that created these patterns in the first place. This is the kind of therapy that creates real, lasting shifts. The kind that helps you to finally feel grounded in who you are, connected to the people you love, and at peace with yourself.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

I believe that everyone has the strength and courage within themselves to become the very best version of themselves. I'm merely here to offer the guidance and support you need to unlock it. I have personal lived experience as: Neurodiverse (ADHD) woman Parent Parent of neurodiverse (ADHD) children/ teens and lived experience with close family members who are: Neurodiverse (Autism spectrum and ADHD) Transgender

More About My Practice

I offer EMDR, IFS, and traditional talk-therapy sessions, as well as ADHD treatment and support. Typical sessions are 55 minutes in length, but can range from 30 minutes (structured ADHD sessions) to 6 hours (EMDR Intensive sessions) and anywhere in between. Sessions are offered virtually to clients located in New York and Florida. If you we may be a good fit to work together, contact me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation call!
