Bilingual and Bicultural psychotherapy services for Individuals, Children, Families and Couples.

Please note that I am currently only offering therapy via a HIPAA compliant Telehealth service that offers excellent video and audio, allowing you to engage in therapy from the comfort and convenience of your own home. I view therapy as a collaborative experience aimed at helping patients become the best version of themselves. I love working with patients who are motivated to make change and excited to learn more about who they are and how they navigate the world. I have a plethora of experience working with individuals and couples who have mood disorders, anxiety related disorders, complex physical and sexual abuse traumas, and those who have difficulty adjusting to life changes. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which is an active, structured, and goal oriented form of therapy that aims to uncover and change maladaptive patterns of thoughts and behaviors. Additionally, I practice EFT for couples and EMDR, CPT, PET, and WET for those with symptoms of PTSD. I'm glad to provide you more details on all modalities. Whether you're returning or going for the first time, therapy can be scary. I pride myself on creating a warm, accepting, and empathetic environment that aids patients in opening up and exploring themselves. I am direct with patients and encourage them to face things that make them uncomfortable so they're able to grow. If you're interested in a free phone consultation, please visit the website link under my photo. You will be directed to a calendar that shows all my upcoming availability for a phone call and be able to schedule your call there directly. I look forward to hearing from you!

I work with people navigating anxiety, trauma, identity, and the weight that builds up when life gets genuinely hard. That includes LGBTQ+ youth and adults, adolescents with disabilities, couples, people of color, and clients who have felt like the system was not built with them in mind. My approach is integrative and strengths-based, with CBT and trauma-informed care at the core, and I show up with genuine empathy and honest directness. I offer clients a safe space to share their most vulnerable moments, free of judgment, to hone their skills, and to be unapologetically themselves while making progress toward their goals. I can't wait to see how far you come! Reach out when you are ready.

I’m a mental health therapist specializing in anxiety treatment and life transitions, offering in-person. Something isn't working anymore. Maybe it’s the anxiety that hits at 3 a.m. and won’t let you sleep. Maybe it’s the way certain memories still hijack your body, even though your mind says you should be over them. Maybe it’s a transition that looked like progress on paper but feels like freefall in real life. Or maybe you feel exhausted from holding it all together, and you’re not sure how much longer you can keep performing okay. You might be here because you’re done pretending. Done reassuring everyone that you’re fine when you’re not. Done managing symptoms instead of actually changing what’s underneath them. Whatever brought you here, you’re looking for something real. Here’s what I bring: a direct, warm, occasionally funny presence who won’t let you off the hook but also won’t shame you. I use evidence-based approaches like anxiety treatment, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I’m interested in you: the patterns that keep you stuck, the beliefs about yourself you’ve never questioned, and the specific tools that will actually move the needle. I work well with people at different points in their healing journey, from those still learning to name what they feel to those who understand their patterns but can’t seem to change them. My approach combines insight with frameworks. We understand why this keeps happening. Then we build something that actually interrupts it. Our collaborative, goal-oriented counseling helps identify what’s keeping you trapped, whether it’s a nervous system stuck in overdrive, old survival strategies that no longer fit your life, or the gap between the person you present and the person you actually are. Then we build skills you can use in real life, not just in my office. I believe therapy should have a point. We’ll know we’re done when you’re living the life you actually want, not just managing the one you settled for. If you’re tired of performing wellness and ready to do the real work, let’s talk.

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in comprehensive psychological evaluations and personalized interventions for autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and other developmental challenges. My practice focuses on helping children, adolescents, and adults uncover their strengths, navigate obstacles, and access the resources they need to succeed. I provide strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming strategies tailored to your unique needs using evidence-based techniques. With specialized experience in working with adopted individuals and those who have experienced trauma, including chronic illness, I integrate a trauma-informed framework to ensure clients feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the process. Every individual has their own journey, which is why I offer a collaborative, solution-focused approach to help you set and achieve your goals.

I work with adults and couples who are thoughtful, capable, and often accustomed to handling life well, but have reached a point where their usual ways of coping no longer seem to be working. They may feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure of what they want, or they may find themselves repeating patterns in their relationships or work that they don’t fully understand. I also work with people navigating major transitions such as divorce, parenting, career changes, loss, questions of purpose, and the complicated process of figuring out what comes next. My approach is psychodynamic, direct, and deeply curious about what is happening beneath the surface. I help clients understand not only what they are struggling with, but why they respond to life and relationships in the ways they do. Together, we explore patterns, defenses, fears, expectations, and the stories people develop about themselves and others. I value openness and honesty in the therapeutic relationship, and I’m comfortable saying what I see when I think something may be important for a client to consider, even when it may be difficult to hear. At the same time, I want clients to feel that they can bring anything into the room without fear of judgment. My style is warm, engaged, and conversational, and I often use humor and playfulness to bring some lightness to difficult conversations and reduce shame around things that can feel hard to talk about. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New York with extensive experience working with individuals and couples. My work draws from psychodynamic, attachment, relational, and differentiation-oriented approaches. I provide psychotherapy through my private practice, The Mindful Map Mental Health Counseling, PLLC, based in New York City. I offer therapy exclusively through secure virtual sessions to clients throughout New York State. My practice is private pay, with superbills provided for clients seeking possible out-of-network insurance reimbursement.

My philosophy and vision in treatment involves facilitating a combination of talk therapy and mindful body practices, enabling each person to realize his or her unique self with compassion and awareness.

I am a compassionate Mental Health Counselor specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps individuals understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I work collaboratively with clients to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies to create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is supportive, goal-oriented, and tailored to your unique needs. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, stress, or everyday challenges, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and empowered. Through CBT, I help clients build effective coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and gain confidence in managing life’s difficulties. Together, we will focus on developing healthier thought patterns and behaviors so you can move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and a stronger sense of well-being. Clients come to my practice for a variety of reasons, often when life begins to feel overwhelming or difficult to manage alone. Many are navigating anxiety, stress, or persistent worry that interferes with their daily lives. Others may be experiencing feelings of sadness, burnout, or struggling to cope with major life changes such as transitions in relationships, parenthood, or career. Some clients seek support to better understand their thoughts and emotions, while others want to break unhelpful patterns, improve coping skills, or build confidence and self-esteem. I also work with individuals who feel stuck, uncertain, or simply in need of a safe space to talk and be heard without judgment. No matter the reason, each client is met with empathy, respect, and a personalized approach to help them move toward greater clarity, balance, and emotional well-being. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and taking that first step is not always easy. You may be feeling anxious, stressed, or simply unsure of where to begin—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I am here to listen, support, and walk alongside you at your own pace. If you’re ready to start your journey toward healing and growth, I invite you to reach out. I would be honored to support you.

At the heart of everything I do is this simple belief: you deserve to feel deeply known and accepted, exactly as you are. I know what it's like to feel stuck—caught between where you are now and where your heart longs to be. My role isn't to fix you (because you're not broken), but to help you discover the incredible strengths you already possess and use them as stepping stones toward the life you want.

I believe therapy should be a supportive, collaborative, and emotionally safe space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported without judgment. Many of the women I work with are carrying significant pressure at work, in relationships, and in their personal lives while continuing to function through anxiety, burnout, emotional overwhelm, perfectionism, and chronic stress. My approach is compassionate, practical, and grounded in helping you better understand yourself while developing healthier and more sustainable ways of coping with life’s challenges. Together, we explore the patterns contributing to stress, overthinking, self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, and difficulty slowing down while also identifying your strengths, values, and emotional needs. In therapy, my goal is to create a space where you can slow down, reflect, process what you have been carrying, and reconnect with yourself outside of constant responsibility and pressure. We work together to build healthier coping strategies, strengthen boundaries, improve emotional balance, and create a more sustainable relationship with work, relationships, and daily life. Therapy is not about “fixing” you. It is about helping you feel more grounded, emotionally supported, self-aware, and connected to yourself so you can move through life with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.
