I am a Licensed Individual Clinical Social Worker and I work with HSPs experiencing anxiety, panic, and low self esteem. I am an HSP myself and I support HSPs to connect to the wisdom inside of them and listen to their needs. I believe that everyone has innate wisdom inside of them and it is just about creating the conditions for folks to be able to tap into it. I use EMDR therapy, mindfulness, mind-body/somatic practices, the nervous system and parts work in my work with clients. I support HSPs to see their sensitivity as an asset to work with, instead of against.
By understanding what it means to be a “highly sensitive person” you can better understand yourself and your needs without judgment. You can work with your nervous system, instead of against it. You can feel more empowered to assert your needs and be confident in who you are. You can relish in your superpower of feeling and experiencing deeply and see life, and your experience of it, through a new lens. And I can help you get there. Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have been practicing for 12 years. I am a Highly Sensitive Person, and cultivating this trait is my passion. The majority of my clients are HSPs and I am incredibly grateful that I get to work with this wonderful and important population. I work with adults as well as children of all ages. I have experience supporting and training parents and caregivers, providing consultations to improve their skills and understanding to support their kids, both highly sensitive and not. I have experience and training with anxiety and trauma, and can provide individual therapy and family therapy.
My therapeutic approach consists of a combination of the following modalities: person-centered, intuitive, mind-body, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP). I am LGBTQIA+ friendly.

As a Highly Sensitive Person myself, I specialize in working with other HSPs. We’ll identify your strengths that can be used to manage the challenges that can come with high sensitivity (including overwhelm and irritability). As a member of the queer community, it has been important to me to support LGBTQ+ clients. For some clients, their gender and sexual orientation is a major part of our work. For others, it’s reassuring to know they’re working with an affirming therapist. Currently, I am in training to become a Certified Body Trust Provider, meaning I help clients work on their relationship with food and themselves from a weight-inclusive, health-at-every-size stance. Additional areas of focus include anxiety, grief, stress management, self-care, and relationships.

When you find yourself overwhelmed by the expectations of others, society, or even your own inner critic, it can feel exhausting. You wish you could slow down, ease the anxiety, and experience calm and relief.
I help HSPs and those with chronic illness attend to their sensitive systems, befriend their emotions, and find their way back to themselves. As an HSP myself, I highlight your deep-feeling gifts and strengths through a warm and compassionate style. I use a trauma-informed, mind-body approach, and incorporate attachment and psychodynamic theories, Internal Family Systems, and somatic therapies. If this resonates with you, please reach out for a free consultation to learn more.

You feel things intensely. You think deeply. Somewhere along the way, you may have gotten the message that this wasn’t okay– that you were too much or too sensitive. And maybe you believed it. While it may not always feel this way, I want you to know that I believe that strong feelings, deep thinking, and being highly attuned are great gifts.
I specialize in working with highly sensitive people, anxiety, and trauma, particularly childhood and medical trauma. I’m an HSP myself and have been described as warm, open, and playful. I always welcome all parts of a person and work from an attachment, psychodynamic, and internal family systems lens. Please reach out for a free consultation to learn more.

I often work with Highly Sensitive adolescents, young adults and adults; those who think and feel deeply, and may find themselves struggling with feeling overwhelmed, experiencing perfectionism, low-self esteem and/or have difficulty creating healthy boundaries and communicating within relationships.
Other areas of interest include coping with feelings of depression, anxiety, and navigating exciting though sometimes stressful life transitions (graduating, going to college, getting a new job, moving, changes in relationships, starting a family). Additionally, prior to private practice I worked in top New York City High schools and have great interest and experience working with Highly Sensitive teens in competitive, stressful academic environments.
My approach is warm, greatly supportive, and collaborative; I utilize both evidence-based approaches combined with influences from my holistic background and ongoing trainings. Together we will navigate the challenges as well as the incredible gifts that come from being a HSP and find strengths and tools based on your unique experience and needs.

I provide psychotherapy for highly sensitive adults, adolescents and families. I help HSPs live in better alignment with their sensitive temperament, support their sensitive nervous systems, and embrace their authentic selves. My style is warm, down to earth, collaborative, compassionate, and deeply intuitive. I specialize in helping adults and adolescents navigate anxiety (generalized, panic, health, OCD, social), stressful life transitions and events, relationships, self-esteem, ADHD, and the pressures of daily life. In addition to individual therapy, I work with parents and caregivers by providing consultations to improve their skills and understanding in supporting their highly sensitive children. My therapeutic approach is integrative drawing from psychodynamic and evidence based modalities including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, and self-compassion/mind-body techniques. As an HSP myself, I have a true appreciation for the challenges HSPs face as well as the incredible strengths and gifts inherent in one’s innate sensitivity.
