My Role as a Therapist

As a therapist, my role is first to listen. I will often reflect your issues back to you so you can hear them from another perspective. Very often when you are feeling stuck and unsure what to do next, you do already know the answer.

Through psychotherapy or therapeutic yoga, I will help you to reveal what you need in order to feel better. Sometimes this means I will challenge your self-talk and belief statements. Often you will feel deeply supported as you become more in touch with your true self and desires. You may not always leave your therapy sessions feeling "great," though there will be those days too, you will leave each session feeling hope.

How My Own Struggles Made Me a Better Therapist

I became a therapist after a decade long career as a professional performing artist. While I presented myself as the "picture of health," I later came to discover, through my own work with a skilled therapist and other healing professionals, that I while I appeared healthy, I was not "well." My career was strong, but the physical and emotional demands of the business slowly wore me down until I became depleted.

As I built my health back up through psychotherapy, yoga, and other complementary practices, healing and wellness became my passion.

I have trained and worked in New York City hospitals on oncology and general medicine units working with patients at their hospital bedsides, as well as in outpatient clinics focusing on women's issues, acute and chronic illness, depression, anxiety, and adjustment.

I continue to study and practice a healthy lifestyle in my personal and professional life. My clients can be assured that I am a therapist who "walks my talk."
