It is important to me that LGBTQ+ people feel safe in the therapeutic space. I often help clients navigate grief, complex trauma or anxiety and I offer unique therapeutic perspectives when supporting those processing childhood rejection, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, university stress, or careers in the arts. My clinical practice is informed and enriched by my career as a professor, director, and administrator in the performing arts. I have directed or taught theatre courses at some of the most well-regarded theatre programs in the country, including Juilliard, Yale School of Drama, and NYU TISCH School of the Arts. As a therapist, I create a space for you to bring your whole self, feel safe, respected and understood as well as learn new skills and take on new perspectives. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all therapy, instead I tailor therapy to your individual needs. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, relational, and trauma-informed strategies, while also integrating expressive arts and movement or somatic lenses when useful. And I always offer a steady and reliable presence. Clients who work with me gain a more accurate understanding of what is really going on for them, and make positive changes in their thoughts, assessments and actions, resulting in greater satisfaction and functioning in their lives.

I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can explore who you are, understand what’s getting in the way of the life you want, and learn tools to support meaningful change.

In my practice, I support clients navigating neurodivergence (including ADHD and autism), racial and cultural identity, sexual health, problematic porn use, and challenges with executive functioning. Together, we work on building awareness, creating systems that support your unique needs, and developing skills to foster balance and connection in your life. My background spans clinical practice, advocacy, and policy. I’ve had the privilege of serving communities both locally and internationally including work in Mexico and Ghana, and serving as Director of Health Policy and Advocacy at a healthcare advocacy organization focused on Latino communities. These experiences have shaped my commitment to equity, inclusion, and cultural humility. Whether you’re exploring your identity, working through relationship challenges, or learning to create healthier habits and boundaries, I’m here to support you in finding yourself and building meaningful relationships both with others and with yourself that will help you thrive!

At our practice, we recognize that emerging adulthood represents a critical period of identity formation and personal growth.

We help clients focus on their own development, goals, and emotional well-being, using evidence-based interventions tailored to the unique challenges of this life stage. Whether you are exploring career paths, building relationships, managing mental health symptoms, or simply seeking clarity about your direction, we can hold space for you to pause, reflect, and grow.
