If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or frustrated with yourself — especially around focus, follow-through, confidence, or patterns you want to break — you’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) providing individual therapy to adults seeking practical, supportive, and insight-oriented care. I specialize in working with clients who want to strengthen executive functioning and ADHD-related challenges, build self-esteem and confidence, and support recovery from addictive behaviors, including alcohol, substances, and process addictions (such as gambling or compulsive sexual behaviors). Many of the clients I work with are highly capable, insightful individuals who feel discouraged by procrastination, self-doubt, impulsivity, or repeated cycles they struggle to change. Therapy with me focuses on helping you better understand your patterns, develop effective coping strategies, and build a more grounded and confident relationship with yourself. I commonly support clients with: -ADHD and executive functioning challenges (organization, time management, follow-through) -Low self-esteem, self-criticism, and confidence at work or in relationships -Anxiety related to performance, decision-making, or life transitions Addiction recovery (alcohol, substances, gambling, sex or compulsive behaviors) -Emotional regulation and impulse control Stress, burnout, and feeling “stuck” My therapeutic style is collaborative, structured, and compassionate. I integrate evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic insight, tailoring therapy to your goals and pace. I aim to create a space where you feel supported, challenged when helpful, and empowered to make meaningful progress. Clients often describe therapy with me as supportive, thoughtful, and goal-oriented.

me: In a relational, humanistic, and conversational style, and through an attachment-oriented lens, I am focused on harnessing the powerful dynamic of the therapeutic relationship, in order to help individuals locate within themselves a sense of meaning and purpose in the here and now. I am focused on developing each client’s ability to maintain internal validity and positive self-regard, in order to reduce self-shame, self-judgement, and self-harm. you: While I work with individual adults of all ages, most of my clients tend to be 25-45, and coming to therapy to work through a variety of human challenges and stressors often associated with complications that occur in the life-stage transitions from adolescence to early adulthood and early adulthood into middle age. For many of us, these life-stage transitions are often extended and/or delayed, leading to feelings of pscyho-emotional paralysis and “stuckness” in repeated patterns of behavior. My practice is also further specialized in working with performing artists and other creative/artistic professionals. The intersectionality of psycho-emotional health and creative identity/artistic process is an area of experience and particular interest to me. Having trained and worked professionally as an actor, prior to earning a master’s degree in clinical social work, I am deeply focused on using the shared language of artistic development to help other artists utilize the many tools and skills they’ve already developed for self-reflection and craft honing as artists, in order to help them create growth, change, and fulfillment in their personal and professional lives. Although many of my clients meet diagnostic criteria for depression, trauma, and anxiety, I aim to see people beyond the diagnosis and view them as the whole human beings they are. us: Together, we will have a meaningful relationship intended to support and foster your personal growth, resilience, healing, and ability to create internal validity, as well as meaning and purpose in the moment. Our relationship exists within the context and framework of weekly, or bi-weekly, 45-minute conversations, focused on examining all aspects of how your pscyho-emotional health and wellbeing correspond to your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. No human is broken. We are all operating in the exact way the human system was intended to operate, by adapting; sometimes for the better, and other times to our own detriment. We are all the logical conclusion of the sum of our total experiences. Therefore, we will work jointly to piece together your narrative in a way that connects the total sum of your experiences to your present thoughts, feelings, and behavioral patterns, in order to learn to move forward, create change, and become the future self that is still yet unrealized.

I work in a warm, transparent, and collaborative way. Humor — and sometimes swearing — has a place in session, because I believe both can build distress tolerance. Expect to dive into action: my job is to help you do the hard thing. Together, we’ll confront unhelpful patterns and interrupt the cycle of avoidance through experiential exposure. You’ll practice new ways of facing difficult situations, build specific skills for doing hard things, and move toward what actually matters to you — step by step, toward a life aligned with your values. When you work with me, expect to dive into action. My goal is to help you do the hard thing. Background & Training I received my Ph.D. from Columbia University and have 18+ years of experience providing culturally informed therapy to adults, with specialized training in multicultural psychology. I use evidence-based Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) within an interpersonal framework, integrating attachment theory, IFS and polyvagal-informed trauma approaches. I believe the therapeutic relationship, paired with research-backed methods, can be genuinely transformative. No one gives us a guide on how to be human or how to build a fulfilling life. In therapy, I provide a compassionate space where you can learn how to process and regulate emotions, navigate relationships and boundaries, uncover avoidance patterns, and connect with your core values. Specialties Anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, autism, adult ADHD, identity concerns and exploration, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My work is attachment- and trauma-informed, drawing on mindfulness and emotion-processing skills, experiential exposure, boundary work, and values-based practice to reduce experiential avoidance and build lasting change.

As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, I have repeatedly seen the benefits of targeting trauma directly in a consistent way. Supported by research, dealing with the most distressing incident(s) can more efficiently help you become more present in your life, enjoy things you had before, and create a future you want. My approach is supportive and goal-oriented, and I am here to help you in this journey. I focus on individual treatment. I enact treatments of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), and Written Exposure Therapy (WET). I also use Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Relationships (STAIR) to address trauma-related symptoms without targeting trauma. The goal of my practice is to strengthen individuals to help them create long-lasting positive effects in their lives.

Finding support for your mental health is one of the most meaningful steps you can take for yourself. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with six years of experience, my work centers on helping people of all ages navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, and life transitions. Whether you're facing low self-worth, struggling to set healthy boundaries, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to find your way through it alone. My goal is to be a steady, empowering partner in your healing process. Together, we'll work toward building clarity, resilience, and the confidence to move forward with purpose. Wherever you are right now, that's exactly where we'll begin. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and structured, with a genuine belief that lasting healing comes from understanding what's at the root of your struggles. Creating a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel safe enough to go deeper is something I take seriously in every session. Using trauma-informed care and skills-based Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), we'll work together to process emotional pain, manage distress, and build healthier patterns that support greater stability and overall functioning. My style is warm and empowering, and the way we work will always be tailored to your unique capacity to process, accept, and grow. You can expect care that honors who you are and meets you with both structure and heart. Growing up, watching family members navigate mental health challenges, some diagnosed and others not, planted a seed that has shaped everything about the therapist I've become. Coming from a Caribbean background, I saw firsthand how deeply stigma can prevent people from seeking the help they deserve. That experience became a calling to provide a supportive space for my community so they feel that therapy can be effective and not feeling judged. Providing care that is affirming and culturally informed has been my commitment ever since. Understanding how individual and cultural experiences shape the way people cope with distress is something I bring to every conversation. Outside of sessions, life is full of the things that bring me joy and keep me grounded. Cooking is a creative outlet, binge-watching a great TV series is a favorite way to unwind, and spending time with family is where I feel most at home.
