“Therapy is an artistic collaboration between two truth-seekers. Together we sculpt, transforming our shapes - both artists, both the clay. We evolve and the universe renews.”

 

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here,

With over fifteen years of experience, I am dedicated to guiding individuals toward more balanced, productive, and meaningful lives. Whether you're navigating the complexities of young professional life in New York City, adjusting to the challenges of new parenthood, or coping with the profound impact of losing a loved one, I offer compassionate support tailored to your unique journey. If you're grappling with anxiety, stress, depression, or any of life’s many challenges, I am here to help you gain deeper self-understanding and make the changes you desire.

My expertise spans the treatment of anxiety, stress management, loss and grief, trauma, and relational work with couples and entrepreneurs. I am particularly excited about the emerging role of psychedelics and MDMA in mental health treatment, which promises to further enrich therapeutic possibilities.

My approach is integrative and grounded in the belief that true healing involves the harmonization of mind, body, and spirit. Through postgraduate training in Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, OCD, and Perinatal Anxiety and Mood Disorders, I utilize a range of embodied healing modalities, including breathwork, guided meditation, and restorative yoga. These powerful tools help relax and balance the nervous system, alleviating the somatic symptoms of chronic stress, anxiety, and emotional trauma.

The Inspiration Behind founding Repose

The inspiration behind Repose stems from a deep conviction that true healing requires a balanced integration of mind, body, and spirit. In today’s fast-paced, often disconnected world, nurturing our spiritual selves has never been more important. Spirituality offers a grounding force amidst life's chaos, providing a sense of purpose, connection, and inner peace. I founded Repose to create a sanctuary where clients can explore their experiences holistically, addressing their mental, emotional, and physical needs with respect and care. This space is designed to honor and nurture your entire being, facilitating profound personal transformation and growth.

Mentoring and Guiding Therapists

In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about mentoring and guiding other therapists. I believe in cultivating a community of practitioners who understand and value the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. By sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm, I empower therapists to incorporate these holistic principles into their practices, fostering a therapeutic environment that is both effective and affirming. My commitment extends to nurturing the next generation of therapists in their own journeys to integrate spirituality into their work, ensuring that they can provide care that addresses the full spectrum of human experience.

A Passion for Working with Entrepreneurs

I have a deep-seated passion for working with entrepreneurs who are striving to infuse their professional lives with intentionality, alignment, and purpose. Entrepreneurship often involves navigating incredible highs and daunting lows, requiring not only strategic thinking and resilience but also a profound sense of purpose. My approach helps entrepreneurs align their business goals with their personal values, fostering a balanced life where their professional endeavors resonate with their core vision. By integrating holistic practices with practical strategies, I support entrepreneurs in achieving both professional success and personal fulfillment.

Lifelong Learning and Growth

In my journey as a therapist, I am continually inspired by the capacity for lifelong learning and growth. I believe that healing is an ongoing process, enriched by a commitment to self-discovery and the pursuit of knowledge. My dedication to personal and professional development ensures that I bring the latest insights and practices to my work, helping clients navigate their paths with clarity and confidence. Together, we will embark on a transformative journey, embracing the continual evolution of the self and the profound potential for growth that lies within each of us.

Let’s explore your path to healing and transformation. I am here to support you every step of the way, guiding you toward a more authentic, fulfilled, and balanced life.
