Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in New York

I am empathic, non-judgmental, actively listen ,supportive

You've been holding it together for everyone else. Let's make space for you.

You're self-aware enough to know something is wrong, and exhausted from trying to figure it out on your own. Maybe you've done therapy before. Maybe you've read the books, know the language, can explain your patterns — and still can't seem to change them. That gap between knowing and feeling is exactly where I work.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and the relational wounds that don't heal with insight alone. My clients are often thoughtful, capable, hard-working women who are harder on themselves than they'd ever be on anyone else — carrying old hurt in their bodies long after their minds have tried to move on.

My approach is warm and direct. I won't just nod and reflect — I'll work actively with you, using EMDR, somatic and parts-based (IFS-informed) methods, and nervous system tools drawn from yoga therapy and mindfulness. These aren't techniques I layer on top of talk therapy — they're how I understand healing: that your body has been part of the story all along, and it needs to be part of the recovery too.

I've been doing this work for over 18 years, and I bring my whole self to it — including my own experience navigating complex relationships, multiple roles, and the ongoing practice of self-compassion that I ask of my clients.

If you're ready to stop managing and start actually shifting — I'd love to connect.

I am a psychotherapist working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, and dissatisfaction in relationships. I help my clients explore how past trauma and experiences are impacting their current functioning and relationships and how they can create new relational patterns with themselves and others. My aim is to empower my clients to cultivate a healthy self-perception, foster stronger relationships, and develop the internal strength to uphold personal accountability and integrity.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with 13 years of experience, who brings a distinct level of insight to clients as a serving New York City Firefighter. I provide specialized support to first responders, children, families, and individuals navigating challenges related to substance abuse, trauma, and depression.

My clinical foundation is built on a Master's degree from Fordham University and intensive training in evidence-based modalities, including Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness, and Family Systems, for effective clinical results and sustained client change.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, or life changes, you don’t have to go through it alone. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who supports adults managing depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, and health challenges, bringing extensive mental health experience and exposure to the medical field to guide you with insight and compassion.

Attention, impulse control, and trauma-related issues are often misunderstood, stigmatized, and poorly treated. With time and treatment, patients who are affected learn to recognize and compensate for their symptoms. Self-acceptance brings appreciation for their own energy, strengths, and resilience. Many continue to exciting lives of high achievement and satisfaction. It is my privilege to accompany you on this journey.
