Individual Therapy
I offer virtual therapy for clients throughout New York and Connecticut. In-person sessions are available at my West Hartford, CT office.
My Approach
My practice integrates contemporary psychodynamic approaches with other interventions as needed for each unique client. I consider the ways your entire story, and the systems in which you are a part of, effect and maintain the problems that bring you into therapy. Together, we’ll make sense of the why and how.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
I am also a certified EMDR therapist and approved EMDR consultant through the EMDR International Association. EMDR is a therapeutic approach that helps people heal from the emotional distress and symptoms caused by disturbing life experiences, including trauma. It involves recalling parts of the disturbing memory while engaging in bilateral stimulation (like eye movements or tapping), which facilitates the brain's natural processing of the memory, leading to reduced distress and more adaptive beliefs.

Individualized weekly or biweekly appointments typically 50 minutes in length. First we’ll spend time getting to know one another and developing an understanding of what’s bringing you into therapy, what you’d like to experience differently or change, and talk through the ways therapy can help get you there. Then we get to work! The model we’ll use is tailored to your needs and preferences; my approach is relational, compassionate and developed not only from training, but more so from the insight and wisdom of my clients over the years.

I work with adults feeling stressed, overwhelmed and anxious. You may be experiencing the pressures of work or parenting, problems in relationships or grappling with a recent death. If you’re unsure why you’re feeling anxious and overwhelmed, on edge or angry, let’s figure it out together and understand more clearly what’s going on. Problems are neither too big or too small to warrant help.
