As a psychotherapist (LCSW), I support people through a non-pathologizing approach by offering the compassion and connection we all need to heal. I affirm your gender, sexuality, culture, race, neurodiversity, and the backgrounds that blend to make you who you are today.

I utilize a variety of modalities based on the person(s) in front of me. Relational work is embedded within every intervention.

Methods include Internal Family Systems, Somatics, Perinatal and Postpartum Mental Health focused on dads & fatherhood,  Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, Relational Life Therapy, Brainspotting, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).

I see our sessions as a time to guide you and a place to teach you so that when you leave the office, you will have those skills within yourself. I meet with clients virtually weekly and bi-weekly in California and New York. I am an out-of provider and can provide superbills if you are interested in submitting them for reimbursement. We also have therapists in training—graduate mental health interns—who provide therapy to expand access.

Additionally, I provide clinical consultation, supervision, and training for those interested in learning additional skills outside of a psychotherapy relationship. Please let me know in your message if this is of interest.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples looking to explore issues related to relationships, sex and sexuality. Often times shame, guilt, anxiety and sadness are the core emotions at the center of our distress. Together we can work towards facing some of these negative and uncomfortable feelings in order to lead you towards a path of healing and empowerment. In understanding yourself and your needs better I hope you can begin to feel more confident in making decisions, letting go of the things you may have been holding onto, or feeling more connected to yourself and others.

Sex, sexuality, and intimacy are concepts that we spend a lot of time pondering, but have few places or people in our lives where these topics are acceptable to bring up. The truth is everyone has sexual and intimacy concerns, but society doesn’t help us sort this stuff out. Messages about sex are everywhere in advertising, but real honest sex education is lacking. This leaves us to feel that we are isolated and alone. This can cause inner turmoil for people, and I want to create a safe environment where people can discuss their desires, fears, dreams, and beliefs about themselves. I believe that personal growth and self reflection come from support, guidance, and nurturance.

My practice takes a holistic approach to psychological and emotional wellness, informed by my understanding of the need to incorporate an understanding of a person’s social and environmental surroundings to accurately assess and address their mental health. My clinical approach draws from a number of modalities including Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and is also influenced by postcolonial theory.

I welcome adolescents and adults who are experiencing mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, mood instability, and trauma. I am particularly attuned to the difficulties men face in understanding, experiencing, and expressing our emotions. I approach my work with compassion and warmth, along with deep respect for each individual’s experience and identities. I primarily use relational and psychodynamic modalities. This means I place an emphasis on the therapeutic relationship, and collaborate with my clients to identify, explore, and change relationship and behavior patterns. I believe a therapist can be a “friendly mirror,” gently guiding us to see and accept all parts of ourselves.

I’m a licensed psychologist specialized in working with men who are overwhelmed, stuck, and just doing their best to survive. I see how hard you’re trying. I can help you get relief, feel reconnected to your purpose, and show up fully for your loved ones. If you’ve opened up in the past and felt judged or misunderstood, or you’re nervous about starting therapy for the first time, I’ll make sure you feel comfortable.
In our sessions, you will feel truly understood and accepted by me, especially for the parts of yourself you’ve had to hide underground for so long. You’ll find that our work translates into greater self-esteem, improved ability to cope with any and all emotions, and better communication with the people who matter most to you.
I know you’re used to handling things alone or just muscling through. Let’s work together to try something new. When you reach out, I’ll respond within a day to schedule a free consultation. I am currently accepting clients for virtual therapy in New York & Florida.

In my experience, few individuals come to therapy feeling that “typical” treatment categories adequately capture their difficulties, hopes, and fears.
Instead, the individuals I work with sometimes describe feeling preoccupied by aspects of important relationships, blocked in their ability to express themselves authentically, or lacking self-confidence. Initially, some may even have trouble finding the right words to describe the changes they’d like to make. Finding these words—the right words—to describe what’s wrong and what relief would look like is a central part of treatment.

In my 20+ years of experience, I believe in holistic, healing therapy, where there is no “typical treatment” for a “typical person.” So instead, I integrate a strength-based approach, incorporating Trauma-Focused CBT, Mindfulness Training, and Somatic Experiencing, all while incorporating my multicultural, international lens.

I have an extensive trauma therapy background, including sexual trauma and assault and psychological first aid. My specialties include mentoring through life transitions, personal growth, self-esteem, men’s mental health, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Most importantly, I have dedicated my profession to cultivating a mindful, intentional life.
