Psychotherapist · New York, NY & online
Therapy for the people everyone else leans on.
I work with anxiety, burnout, and perfectionism in demanding lives, and with everything perinatal from trying to conceive through the end of the first year. The work is active and direct, even about the feelings you haven’t said out loud.

How I work
Close attention, straight answers.
I’m an active therapist, which means I ask for the specific moment rather than the general week, because the details are where things actually change. I’ll be honest with you about what I notice and where I think we should go next, so you’ll never have to wonder what I’m thinking.
I trained at Columbia with an inpatient psychiatric placement at Mount Sinai, completed Postpartum Support International’s perinatal training, and built my practice on psychodynamic and relational therapy along with Bowen family systems and ACT.
About me
How I ended up here.
I went from Wharton straight into venture capital, investing in software companies. At some point I noticed the job was going well and I wasn’t. In my own therapy, too much of each session went to explaining my world. So I retrained at Columbia to become what I’d been looking for.
Today my practice is people in demanding careers, often from the world I left, and women anywhere from trying to conceive through the first year postpartum. Clients tend to tell me I’m more direct than other therapists they’ve tried. If you want to see whether it’s a fit, start with the free fifteen-minute call.
What to expect
How the work begins.
- 01
A free 15-minute call
We talk through what's going on and whether I'm the right person for it. If I'm not, I'll say so.
- 02
Your first session
Mostly me getting the lay of the land — what brought you in, the shape of your life, and what you want to be different. You don't need to prepare anything or have it figured out. That part is my job.
- 03
From there, we get to work
You set the pace on the heavy stuff. Most people meet weekly, moving between understanding a pattern and actually shifting it — with one eye on what's different in your life outside this room.
Let’s talk first
The first step is a free 15-minute call.
You’ll get a feel for how I work and I’ll get a sense of what you need, and if it feels like a fit we’ll book a first session. If it doesn’t, no harm done.
