I've worked extensively with university and graduate students for over eight years, including completing my postdoctoral training at Cornell Health, and I'm deeply familiar with the academic, personal, and relational pressures that often accompany campus life. My approach is grounded in the psychodynamic tradition and trauma theory, with a focus on how early relationships and implicit emotional learning shape present experience. It is experiential in nature, emphasizing attention to emotional and bodily experience in the present moment. I draw from IFS, AEDP, Coherence Therapy, and Hakomi to help clients move beyond insight toward lasting emotional change.

Welcome to my practice! My clients are ladies 18+. I am doing mostly zoom sessions/telehealth at this time. I spent many years as a student and have tremendous empathy for people.

I have a master's degree from Medaille College in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have a bachelor's degree and a background in art and photography, I have a lot of personal experience healing and working through many of the areas that I help my clients work through. My approach is personalized with each person I meet. Together, we navigate your current feelings and circumstances. You will discover how your thoughts and perspectives were formed and how this guides your behaviors and relationships with yourself and others. You will develop a new understanding of how you process your experiences, and new tools you can take on your journey that will improve your quality of life. I believe clients take away new perspectives and practices that alleviate stress and triggers. You will have a new approach to your thoughts and feelings and feel relief from the symptoms that bind you.

Sometimes in life we find ourselves feeling lost or alone on our journey. We each need to know that someone will be there to help us find our way. My goal is to help you figure out what you want from life and to provide a safe space that will enable you to work towards your goals, whatever they may be. I became a mental health counselor because I believe everyone has the capacity to grow and become more fully the person they were meant to be. My passion is walking that journey with others, being a listening and supportive presence as you strive to do that. I look forward to sharing that journey of discovery with you during our time together. My hours are normally Monday through Thursday from 10 am to 5 pm, but I am open to working with you to find a time that works best for you.
