Finding the Right Support
People come to therapy for different reasons and at different seasons of life. Some arrive in crisis. Others come when life is shifting and the old ways of navigating aren't working anymore. Some come simply because they're curious about what else is possible and need the space to reflect out loud. Whatever brought you here, we can begin there — and work with what is in front of us.
How I Work
My approach is eclectic, adaptive, and relational—the work often focuses on the relationships in your life, starting with your relationship with yourself. The psychotherapeutic relationship oftentimes becomes a space to explore and understand patterns, make sense of what's been happening, and consider new ways of moving forward in your life.
What Brings People Here
I started my clinical work at Silver Hill Hospital in New Canaan, CT, where I worked for four years. Through my work there and in private practice, I've supported clients navigating a broad spectrum of experiences.
Life Transitions & Growth
Career changes, relationship shifts, major decisions, navigating life's turning points
Anxiety & Depression
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unable to find relief.
Trauma & PTSD
Processing difficult experiences, building stability and resilience. For those who have had psychedelic experiences as part of their healing journey, I offer integration support.
Relationships & Connection
Communication, boundaries, intimacy, navigating interpersonal challenges
Identity & Self-Discovery
Questions of who you are, what you value, and how you want to live. Including sexuality, gender expression, and personal growth.
Addiction & Recovery
Substance use, behavioral patterns, and building sustainable change — including dual diagnosis support.
Meaning & Purpose
Existential questions, spiritual exploration, finding direction and meaning. For those who have had psychedelic experiences, I help make sense of insights in a grounded, sustainable way.
Loss & Grief
Processing death, endings, and major life changes
AI, Work & Digital Life
Psychotherapy & Coaching for a Changing World
Artificial intelligence is changing how people work, communicate, create, and think about their futures. For some people, those changes are exciting. For others, they bring anxiety, uncertainty, job disruption, or the unsettling feeling that the world is moving faster than they can keep up.
This work brings together psychotherapy, practical AI education, and my background in corporate technology to help you build confidence, understand the technology, strengthen your ability to adapt, and find meaningful ways to move forward in a rapidly changing world.
Integrative Methods
My clinical training includes advanced work in several evidence-based approaches. I draw from these frameworks and others, depending on what's most helpful for each person.
CBT
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
A structured, goal-oriented approach that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for responding to challenges in new ways.
DBT
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Particularly helpful for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills offer concrete tools for managing intense emotions and navigating relationship challenges.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
A structured approach to processing traumatic memories and distressing experiences. EMDR helps the brain reprocess difficult material in a way that reduces emotional charge and increases adaptive understanding.
IFS
Internal Family Systems
A framework for understanding the different parts of ourselves—protective parts, wounded parts, and core Self. IFS work helps people develop compassion and integration rather than internal conflict.
Somatic & Mindfulness Practices
Mind-Body Integration
Approaches that recognize the connection between physical experience and emotional well-being. Drawing from Transcendental Meditation and Reiki, these practices support nervous system regulation, stress reduction, and grounding.
Life & Spiritual (Meaning-Making) Coaching
Beyond the Clinical Frame
For clients interested in meaning-making work outside the clinical frame—exploring purpose, values, spiritual questions, or life direction. Spirituality here does not necessarily mean religion; this work can be religious, nonreligious, or entirely personal.
Ketamine Preparation & Psychedelic Integration Therapy
Research supports psychedelic-assisted therapy for conditions including depression, PTSD, substance use disorders, and end-of-life distress.
I support clients who have had psychedelic experiences—therapeutic, ceremonial, or otherwise—and want help making sense of what came up. In a confidential space, integration looks both backward and forward: helping you understand the experience, apply its insights, and continue working with what emerges over time.
Harm reduction means I meet you where you are without judgment, provide education about safety and research where appropriate, and support you in making informed decisions about your health.
When ketamine treatment may be beneficial, I work as part of a coordinated team with you and a licensed healthcare provider who evaluates, prescribes, administers, and medically monitors the treatment in their office. My role is to provide preparation, support throughout the course of treatment, and integration afterward so that insights can be explored and translated into meaningful, lasting change.
The services described here include psychotherapy, preparation, integration, harm-reduction education, referrals, and care coordination. They do not include prescribing, supplying, or administering ketamine or psychedelic substances, or facilitating psychedelic experiences as part of this Connecticut psychotherapy practice. Experiences from medical treatment, ceremonial settings, or other contexts are welcome here without judgment. The focus is your safety, understanding, healing, and integration.
For Clinicians
Clinical Collaboration
I welcome opportunities to partner with therapists, psychiatrists, physicians, and other healthcare professionals when a client may benefit from focused, adjunctive work involving EMDR, ketamine preparation and integration, psychedelic integration, or a combination of these services.
My role is to complement—not replace—the client’s established care. When a client has a primary therapist, that relationship remains central. With the client’s consent, I coordinate with the primary therapist and, when applicable, the medical ketamine provider. When our focused work is complete, the client continues with their primary therapist.
I’m always glad to connect with colleagues—whether to discuss a specific client, explore how our work might complement one another, or simply get to know each other’s practices and areas of expertise.
