I am licensed master social worker (LMSW) and psychotherapist who has been living and working in New York City for over 15 years. In 2006, I graduated from the University of Chicago with a degree in Art History and initially began a career in the fashion industry, but soon realized that my calling would be in supporting individuals to grow and thrive. As a result, I completed my Master’s in Education at Harvard University, graduating in 2010 (MEd). I then returned to New York City to work as a teacher in both independent and cooperative school settings. While working as a teacher, I found myself gravitating toward children and families who needed more support than the traditional school model could provide. This led me to obtain my Master Degree in Clinical Social Work at New York University, graduating in 2013 (MSW). Since completing my degree I have gone on to work in a variety of clinical settings providing support to adults, children, and families. My practice uses an eclectic and client centered approach, including arts based interventions, mindfulness practices, trauma stewardship (or helping those in helping professions) and more.
