PROFESSIONAL LIFE

Before becoming a therapist, I worked in NY and CA as a structured finance lawyer and senior investment banker focusing on the technology sector. While I was successful in these fields, I eventually realized that I wanted to pursue a more fulfilling line of work (a successful exit at my start-up didn’t hurt). This experience has taught me the importance of finding meaning and purpose in one's life and has given me the tools to help my clients do the same.

My background in law and finance has given me the tools to better understand and address the high levels of stress and pressure that my clients often face in their careers. I help clients manage work-related anxiety and navigate complex interpersonal dynamics in the workplace. Moreover, my knowledge of legal and financial systems allows me to provide insight into clients' professional development goals and how to achieve them. I especially enjoy working with founders and co-founders to manage stress and anxiety, making difficult decisions, resolving interpersonal conflicts, and maintaining work-life balance.

Prior to working with clients in private practice, I worked as an individual and group therapist at Exodus Recovery Inc., supporting clients with severe and persistent mental illness through an integrative and multidisciplinary approach.

MY PRACTICE

My clients describe me as warm, non-judgmental, direct, and curious. I don't hide behind long silences or academic theories. My goal is to help you understand the source of your struggles and help you find relief. I offer a safe space for open exploration, understanding, and the occasional dose of humor to lighten the load. 

Ready to dive into what matters? I'll provide insightful guidance and unwavering support to help you challenge old patterns and uncover what's truly hindering your growth. Together, we'll build a more authentic and fulfilling path forward. I understand life can be tough, but I also believe in your strength and resilience to thrive.

FAMILY & PARENTHOOD

As a parent to two teenagers, one of whom identifies as non-binary, I have first-hand experience and understanding of the various challenges that families and teenagers face (in addition to issues of gender identity and expression). My experience has given me a unique perspective on the importance of creating a safe and inclusive environment for all individuals, regardless of gender identity or expression.
