With all the division, conflict, and uncertainty in the world today, its natural to be feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, and lonely. Do you have a stream of negative self-talk in your head? Do you struggle with your relationships, intimacy, sexuality, work, and self-care? Do you feel like you're not heard? In a compassionate, safe and non-judgmental environment we can work together to turn down the negative volume in head and become a better version of yourself and feel comfortable being your genuine self. We'll work on your current issues and changing life-long patterns. I have worked with NY's diverse population for over 25 years doing psychotherapy and supervision. I am a progressive, sex positive, LGBTQ friendly, body positive, trauma informed therapist.
