As a therapist in training at Columbia University, I am dedicated to providing a compassionate and empowering space for individuals and families facing life’s challenges. I have experience supporting clients through significant transitions, helping them manage anxiety, depression and identity shifts. My background as a military veteran gives me unique insights into the complexities of trauma, stress and the identity challenges faced by veterans and their families.
I specialize in working with various populations, including young adults, navigating the transition from adolescence to adulthood. This period often brings identity, relationship and career challenges, and I am committed to helping my clients approach these transitions with confidence and clarity. Additionally, I work with individuals from all walks of life who are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship transitions and work-related stress.
In the therapy room, clients can expect me to be an empathetic listener, offering honest and open conversations that foster real progress. I create a safe and affirming space where all aspects of the client’s identity are welcome. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depression, mindfulness for stress management, and narrative therapy for identity exploration. These methods help clients rewrite their personal stories, build resilience and move forward meaningfully.
My commitment is to help clients find peace, purpose, and fulfillment. Together, we will explore their strengths, navigate their challenges and work toward living authentic and whole lives.
