Introduction

Finding the right therapist should feel easy — and getting started even easier. I'm a New York State–licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) offering warm, evidence-based online therapy to clients across New York State, with daytime and evening availability. I work with adults and teens navigating anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, trauma, and life transitions, using proven approaches like CBT. Sessions are held by secure video, so you can get support from wherever you're most comfortable. As NYSHIP and Empire Plan specialists, we take the stress out of insurance — verifying your out-of-network benefits for free and handling the billing for you. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can see if we're a good fit. Reaching out is the hardest part; I'm glad to make the rest simple.
