From Observation to Connection

That way of seeing eventually led me to the mental health field. I earned my Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling in New York City and have now been practicing as a therapist for three years. I also completed additional training in Rehabilitation Counseling with a focus on disability. I continue to engage in specialized neurodivergence training and participate in a chronic illness therapist cohort.

Upon entering the mental health field, I knew I wanted to be alongside people living with chronic illness and neurodivergence. I was drawn to this work because I understand personally how profoundly these experiences can shape the way someone moves through the world.

My own experience living with chronic illness has shaped the way I understand this work. It became part of my life as a young adult and changed my relationship with my body in ways I never expected. The day-to-day reality of managing an invisible illness has given me a deeper understanding of what it feels like to carry something that others may not always see or understand.

If we have the opportunity to work together, I will always join the therapy room with genuine curiosity about you. I am here to truly listen and to honor what you're going through. I believe the therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change, and I hope we can build trust and a relationship that feels authentic.

In this space, we might cry. We might laugh. We might even do both at the same time. Therapy can be messy and that's okay! There is something deeply powerful about having a place where the mess can just be. A place where you can grieve what has been lost while making room for what still matters.
