My vision for my practice is to create a safe space for you to experience supportive, individualized therapy as you embark on the journey to your authentic self.

I draw from a diverse, integrative toolkit to support your unique journey. We will weave together the modalities that best serve you in the present moment. My practice incorporates a blend of evidence-based and holistic approaches—including AEDP, the Flash Technique, guided visualization, journaling, bibliotherapy, CBT, and supportive psychotherapy. Together, we will draw on these tools to develop a comprehensive, grounded approach to your wellness.

I am in the process of credentialling with several insurance providers.

What to Expect During an Energetic Support Session

If you choose to incorporate energetic support, we will collaborate to find the ideal timing within your session based on your needs that day—timing is flexible and naturally adjusts to what feels best for you.

How to Prepare & What to Bring:

  • Clothing & Socks: Please dress comfortably, and wear or bring a pair of socks.

  • Blankets: If you tend to run cold, feel free to bring your favorite blanket. To maintain the highest standard of hygiene, I do not provide shared blankets.

  • Positioning: You are welcome to lie down on the massage table if that feels restful. If lying flat is uncomfortable, we can easily work while you stay comfortably seated in a chair.

  • Touch & Boundaries: Any light touch is offered over clothing and strictly according to your comfort level—it can also be completely hands-off if you prefer.

Most importantly, we will maintain open communication throughout the entire process, ensuring you always remain in complete control of your experience.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York State, I provide psychotherapy services within the scope of my license. I do not prescribe medications, or provide advice on taking medications. In addition to these services, I also offer Reiki therapy as a complementary wellness modality. It is important to understand the distinctions and limitations regarding Reiki.

Reiki is Not a Substitute for Medication, Medical Advice or Comprehensive Mental Health Care

Reiki therapy is intended to be a complementary therapy and is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or psychiatric diagnosis, treatment, or care. I do not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical or mental health conditions through the use of Reiki. If you have a mental health concern that falls outside of my scope of practice as a licensed clinical social worker, or a physical health concern, I recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare provider or specialist.
