About Me

I started my journey with a major in Psychology at McGill University, followed by a Master’s in Social Work from New York University. Since becoming a licensed psychotherapist in 2007, I’ve dedicated myself to helping individuals and couples work through a wide range of emotional challenges. Over the years, I’ve focused particularly on trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and my core passion: supporting people through issues related to gender and sexuality.

My approach to therapy is primarily grounded in psychodynamic therapy, where we explore the deeper roots of emotional struggles to help you understand yourself on a more profound level. I also blend in cognitive-behavioral techniques, helping you shift negative thought patterns and behaviors that might be keeping you stuck.

In 2020, like so many others, I made some big changes. I moved to upstate New York and set up my home office near the beautiful Ashokan Reservoir. Being surrounded by nature and getting deeper into plant medicine work has inspired me to introduce a spiritual, non-religious dimension to my practice. I’ve found this helps clients reconnect with themselves and the natural world, breaking old patterns from childhood in a really healing way. My goal is to offer a holistic, compassionate approach that nurtures both your mind and spirit.

When I’m not working, I love to paint animal portraits—there’s something about capturing their spirit that brings me so much joy. Feel free to take a look at some of my favorite pieces here.
