About Me

I’m a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience working with individuals, families, and systems in distress. My practice is rooted in the belief that insight matters—but so does strategy. Most of the people I work with are facing more than just stress: they’re navigating psychiatric instability, emotional volatility, chronic illness, family rupture, or a complete breakdown of structure. They need a clinician who can think with them, not just soothe them.

I specialize in working with young adults and their parents, especially in situations where progress has stalled or where traditional therapy hasn’t been enough. I’m often brought in during transitions—after a hospitalization, during a treatment refusal, in the middle of a crisis—or when families are trying to shift deeply entrenched dynamics. I also work directly with adults navigating complex diagnoses, medical fragility, or emotional patterns that resist change.

I bring a calm, grounded presence and a deep respect for the people I work with. I’m not here to pathologize or preach. I’m here to help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface—and what to do next.

With a foundation in forensic training, community mental health, private practice, and systems consultation, I’ve worked across schools, clinics, courtrooms, family homes, community spaces, and virtual platforms. My work is grounded in collaboration—partnering with families, educators, clinicians, and legal professionals to create lasting, systems-level change in the lives of those I support. I’m licensed in New York, Connecticut, and Florida (via telehealth), and work almost exclusively online to accommodate clients with medical, psychological, or logistical barriers to in-person care.

What keeps me in this work is the moment someone moves from feeling helpless to feeling capable again—even if nothing around them has changed yet.
