Clinical Practice
I am a New York State Licensed Psychologist specializing in individual and couples therapy, with particular expertise in working with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other sexual and gender minority (LGBTQ+) individuals and couples. With nearly two decades of clinical experience, I provide an affirming, supportive, and collaborative environment where clients can explore challenges, develop new skills, and work toward meaningful change.
Individual Therapy
I help clients navigate a wide range of concerns, including:
-
Anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns
-
Stress, life transitions, and personal challenges
-
Self-esteem, identity, and personal growth
-
Coming out and navigating sexual orientation and gender identity
-
Dating, relationships, and intimacy
-
Substance use and concerns related to sexual behavior
-
Trauma and difficult past experiences
Couples and Relationship Therapy
I also have extensive experience working with couples and individuals navigating relationship challenges, including those in consensually non-monogamous (CNM) relationships, such as open, polyamorous, and monogamish relationships.
I help clients and couples to:
-
Improve communication and deepen emotional connection
-
Navigate disagreements and develop healthier conflict resolution skills
-
Strengthen intimacy, trust, and relationship satisfaction
-
Establish and maintain healthy boundaries
-
Explore and negotiate relationship agreements, including non-monogamy
-
Navigate jealousy, insecurity, and other relationship challenges
My therapeutic approach is collaborative, goal-oriented, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I tailor treatment to each client's unique needs, values, and goals, integrating insight-oriented approaches when appropriate.
All therapy sessions are conducted via secure telehealth for clients located in New York State.
