Individual Therapy

I specialize in working with issues of complex and adulthood trauma, LGBTQ+ populations, and expansive sexualities such as polyamory/non-monogamy, kink/BDSM, and sex work. I and neurodiversity-affirming, fat-friendly and body-neutral, and passionate about working affirmatively with those affected by disability, chronic illness, and chronic pain.

I approach therapy from a holistic and trauma-informed lens, utilizing somatic (body-based), parts-work, and relational modalities. I am trained in Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) with Janina Fisher and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. I earned my Master's in Social Work from the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College.

I believe that forms of social oppression such as racism, sexism, ableism, heterosexism, cissexism, and so on, operate as traumas and stressors as well and thus, are of concern as barriers to wellness. My work is grounded in the principles of non-judgment, positive regard, harm reduction, and compassion. 

I am queer, femme, non-binary, a trauma survivor, neurodiverse, and chronic pain/illness experience-identified. While I always ask permission in sessions about self-disclosure, I strongly believe that our shared humanity is essential to therapy's effectiveness. 

I am not in network with any insurance but can provide therapy clients with superbills for out of network reimbursement. I highly recommend calling the number on the back of your insurance card to confirm you have this benefit for psychotherapy. My rates are $225 for individual sessions and $300 for couples sessions and currently, all sliding scale spots are full.
