Life can sneak up on us without warning and emotional stressors impact all individuals without discrimination. Many times people turn to ineffective coping strategies as a means of escaping emotional pain. I believe that the most successful path to healing is one that treats the whole person, not just the symptoms. I understand that addiction, depression, anxiety, and stress can affect every aspect of your life. It is my hope that, together, we can develop healthier skills to overcome whatever barriers you may be experiencing to physical, mental, and emotional wellness. I use an eclectic treatment approach consisting of evidence-based practices, tailored to your individual needs in order to achieve the quality of life you desire. I have formal training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Person-Centered Therapy (PCT). I graduated from St. John Fisher College with my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and went on to get my License in Mental Health Counseling (LMHC). I am also a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC). I have worked in a number of outpatient settings and have specialized in treating adults with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders since 2010. If you feel that you are ready to make positive changes in your life, I encourage you to take that first step on your journey to healing. Let our work together help transform you into the best version of yourself. I look forward to seeing you soon!

I use my full experience from living in China, France, Japan, and the U.S., and from working in management consulting, nonprofits, and the arts in my work as a therapist. I am adept at working with people from varied backgrounds. I am astute, compassionate, and deeply committed to my clients' well-being. I engage my clients not only on the inner- and inter-personal levels, but also in the contexts of their intersecting roles and identities. I am attuned to the mutual influence that individuals and groups have on one another and the interconnectedness in life's pain and healing. By working with a caring and attuned professional, my clients can feel safe and free to explore and work through their experiences of depression, anxiety, trauma, addictions, loneliness, shame, and anger, all the while developing their courage, resilience, understanding, and self-acceptance. I am fluent in Chinese (Mandarin) and can supplement my work with advanced French and intermediate Spanish. I also provide consultation and training to early- and mid- career clinicians in the U.S. and China.

If you are thinking about entering therapy, I encourage you to follow that call. Therapy can be an incredibly powerful tool in which you can safely explore your past, come into meaningful contact with the present, and ultimately set yourself on a better path for the future. I am passionate about supporting clients in developing effective coping skills to not only survive, but to feel equipped and empowered to thrive in their lives. I am a mental health counselor specializing in anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I offer an integrated approach that emphasizes treating the whole person, drawing from treatments across behavioral, relational, and person-centered models. I believe in meeting clients where they’re at and value each individual’s unique strengths and experiences. The time is always right to prioritize your mental health. Please contact me to learn more about how I can be of help.

Do you feel stuck in the past? Has trauma or anxiety caught you in an emotional loop you can’t seem to break? Does it have you feeling disconnected from yourself, others and the world around you? If so, know that there is hope! I’m a licensed therapist who works with individuals struggling to overcome trauma and anxiety and I would love to help you on your therapy journey. Through EMDR, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and somatic therapy, we’ll work together to make sense of your experiences, improve your self-perception and develop effective coping strategies. Together we’ll explore the underlying issues contributing to the challenges you’re facing in your day-to-day life and work to resolve them. You’ll be able to come away from our sessions feeling more empowered and connected with yourself. If you’re ready to take the first step toward breaking the cycle, reach out to me for a free consultation. All sessions are currently being held virtually, so you can get relief from the comfort of your own home. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a psychologist with over twenty years of experience providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults from a range of backgrounds. I assist individuals with issues related to family, work and peer relationships, academic and professional development, parenting, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, postpartum adjustment and life transitions. I work with individuals to increase their understanding of themselves within the context of their unique experiences. I help individuals achieve a new perspective, personal growth and permanent change. Treatment is long-term or short-term, and is both exploratory and solution based. My approach is collaborative and integrates primarily psychodynamic methods with some aspects of cognitive-behavioral therapy. I am currently a candidate in psychoanalytic training and am accepting individuals for low cost psychoanalysis. I am an active listener who is warm, empathic and attuned to each individual's therapeutic needs and goals. I enjoy attending professional workshops and conferences to enhance my practice.

I enjoy helping to support people as they navigate through the many different waves of life. I help to create a warm, non judgmental, and supportive environment where clients are free to talk about their stories. I draw from a number of different treatment modalities, but most importantly, meet the client where they are at. While each individual's experience is unique, I regularly work with clients around topics related to anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, relationship concerns, sexuality, ADHD, life's transitions, familial conflict and many more. In this busy world, it can be difficult to make time to focus on your needs. Therapy provides a space to do so and share your story in a safe and non judgmental environment. Sessions are a time to practice self care, utilize your strengths, and develop tools that help you gain a better understanding of you. I would love to have the chance to work with you and hear your story. Currently, sessions are teletherapy based allowing you more flexibility to be in a familiar setting and join from any mobile or desktop device. I would love to help you with the process of learning more about you and develop the tools to navigate the many waves of life.

Are you zoning out on this page right now hoping the answers to your problems will magically materialize? Scrolling on here in the late hours of the evening because your mind just won’t stop racing? (Caught ya, but you’ve come to the right place.) You’ve been dealing with a lot that life has been throwing at you lately and it’s hard to just keep up, let alone feel like yourself. You’re tired of keeping it all locked up in your head, putting on a fake smile for the people in your life day in and day out while you’re ready to explode from the pressure inside. You want to step into your life and start living, and I mean really living. You wish you could stop feeling controlled by those unhelpful, nagging thoughts and be present with your loved ones. You want to find balance in all the things that matter to you. And you know what? You deserve it after all you’ve been through. I specialize in helping individuals get back in touch with their true selves and I’m trained in evidence-based practices (EMDR!) to help you get where you want to be. Clients tend to appreciate my strengths-based, down to earth style sprinkled in with a bit of humor. I offer convenient and secure telehealth sessions that mesh well with your busy lifestyle.

Hello! Is your relationship with yourself or important people around you diminished by problematic thoughts, feelings or behaviors? Are you having difficulty reaching goals in work, school, family or other significant areas of your life? With over 25 years of clinical experience helping adults overcome such issues, I bring a thoughtful, sensitive, accepting and thorough approach to the work. I have been effective working with a wide range of ages and backgrounds on issues such as depression, anger, anxiety, relationships, transitions, stress, impulsivity and many others. What are the unique life circumstances you've faced? Are there important parts of you that have not been sufficiently seen, heard or respected? I engage my clients in a mutual process of inquiry so as to improve self-understanding, self-esteem and satisfaction with life. I have advanced training in early loss and in the uniquely powerful technique of group. You deserve help. You may want to interview several therapists to find the right fit. I often have one or several consultation meetings to help potential clients understand how I approach treatment and how it feels to discuss concerns with me.

If you’re a woman or queer person who seems put-together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of who you’re becoming on the inside, you’re not alone. Many of my clients describe shutting down in social settings, feeling pressure to perform, comparing themselves constantly, or wondering why things that once felt easy now feel impossibly heavy. They’re exhausted from pretending they’re fine, disconnected from their own needs, and scared by how quickly their emotions or motivation can swing. I help clients make sense of these intense inner shifts through a somatic, trauma-informed, and spiritually grounded approach. Together, we slow down enough to track what your body and emotions are trying to say, stress patterns, numbness, overthinking, people-pleasing, or the impulse to disappear. Instead of forcing insight or navigating it alone, you get a space to explore identity, relationships, boundaries, burnout, and the pressure to figure everything out. This work helps soften shame, reduce spirals, and reconnect you to what’s real and steady within you. Clients often describe feeling calmer, clearer, and more able to show up for their lives with presence and self-trust. They communicate more honestly, rest without guilt, reconnect with people they care about, and feel less ruled by anxiety or self-attack. If you’re ready to understand what’s shifting inside you, and want support that meets you with depth, compassion, and grounded tools, I’d be honored to walk with you.
