I believe in collaboration and in change. My approach is, above all, empathic. It combines cognitive behavioral therapy methods and traditional psychodynamic methods with stress reduction, mindfulness, and problem-solving approaches. Psychotherapy is ultimately about living a fuller, more meaningful life and I believe I can help you achieve this. There are many triggers we all face: relationship and identity issues, loss or trauma, perfectionism, and life transitions. I am interactive and direct in challenging dysfunctional patterns that are getting in the way of leading the life you want. I will work collaboratively with you to develop a plan of action, building on strengths, to bring balance, meaning, and ease into your life.

As an immigrant, I have always been interested in dislocation and its effect on identity. After starting my career working for the UN and in the field of human rights, I pivoted to Psychology but have continued my international work by consulting to various human rights organizations on their trauma programs and through asylum advocacy.

In addition, I run two women’s trauma groups, a therapeutic writing group, and a break-up group. I am also an Assistant Professor at the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai Hospital, in the Department of Psychiatry and the Mount Sinai Human Rights clinic, where I teach and supervise.
