I have been providing trauma-informed psychotherapy since 2014. I specialize in EMDR for Complex PTSD. I also mix cognitive & behavioral tools, Internal Family Systems, and mind-body practices. I have seen how meaningfully this can change lives for those who grew up LGBTQIA+, who have healing to do in order to feel healthy and secure (even loving!) with themselves and with others. I welcome folks living with HIV and LGBT+ elders; I have lots of experience with this community and am passionate and proud about the place of NYC in AIDS history and in our collective history. I offer advocacy services if you’re seeking support accessing gender-affirming medical care. I prioritize an identity-affirming environment where we focus on what brings you to therapy.
