How I can help

Support that meets you where you are

Primary focus

Therapy for anxiety & burnout

One-on-one virtual therapy for New Yorkers navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship struggles, and the weight of trying to hold it all together. If your mind feels like a tangled ball of chaos and worry, let’s figure it out together.

New

Coaching & consultation

Forward-focused coaching for people outside New York, and consultation for fellow therapists building a practice or a niche. Coaching is not therapy — and I’ll always help you find what fits.

Now at its own home

Grieving a pet?

My pet loss work lives at The Furever Forest — a community, resource library, and my most-read writing on pet grief, all in one gentle place.

My approach

Therapist, creative, and devoted animal lover

For over a decade I’ve helped overwhelmed New Yorkers move from anxiety, self-doubt, and burnout toward feeling more hopeful and grounded. My approach blends practical tools with real warmth — and space for whatever you’re carrying, including the griefs the world tends to minimize.

Sessions with me feel less like a clinical evaluation and more like talking with someone who gets it — warm, collaborative, and honest.
