About Us

The face you show the world may be elusive. You might seem confident, happy, and proficient to others while privately feeling inauthentic or inadequate. You might notice yourself angry, frightened, lonesome, or sad more often than you’d like or for reasons you don’t understand. You might find yourself revisiting past hurts, feeling numb in the wake of difficult, long-ago events, or feeling deeply at odds with your own body. Maybe your racial, sexual, or gender identities have subjected you to painful familial or societal exclusion or marginalization. Or maybe the world just feels too heavy to bear. , In this work, we consider your current stressors in the context of who you have been and who you wish to be. I focus in particular on pervasive anxiety and low mood, disordered relationships to consumption (food, shopping, news/social media), sexual and religious trauma and their sequelae, relentless self-criticism, and struggles with attachment. , I hold an MSW from Columbia University and a BA from Yale College, am an advanced candidate in psychoanalysis, and also studied design at Parsons. I offer complimentary consultations to individuals and couples; I also consult with organizations managing internal conflict. I invite you to join me in a journey of healing and self-discovery.
