Professional statement

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with a deep background in both psychology and performance science. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University, and also hold a doctorate in Exercise Physiology from the same institution, where my research focused on the positive effects of strength training on mental health outcomes. In addition to my clinical work, I am a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC) through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology and currently lead the Championship Performance program within a Division I athletic department.

This role allows me to support student-athletes and teams in developing the mental and emotional skills needed for excellence on and off the field. My style is collaborative, high-energy, and emotionally attuned. I bring a positive, grounded presence that blends emotional intelligence with practical, forward-moving support. Drawing from my experience in high-performance environments at Columbia Athletics, I help clients regulate emotions through mindfulness, cognitive reframing, and strategic goal setting. I focus on helping clients build repeatable systems and sustainable routines that foster confidence, self-efficacy, and long-term growth. I believe breakthroughs happen when insight meets action, and I aim to create a space where clients feel both supported and challenged to evolve.

Clients can expect a focused, structured space where real progress happens. Every session is designed to build clarity, momentum, and confidence. You’ll leave with tools to apply between sessions. Together, we’ll set clear goals, track what’s working, and create systems that support emotional regulation, consistent habits, and self-leadership. I aim to create an environment that’s high-energy, honest, and grounded—where you feel both supported and challenged to grow. The goal isn’t just to feel better. It’s to become better equipped—mentally, emotionally, and behaviorally—to take on the things that matter most in your life.


Message to clients

I take a clear, practical, and results-driven approach to therapy. My focus is on helping clients build systems that support better habits, stronger emotional regulation, and long-term growth. Insight is important—but action is where change happens. Using tools from cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and performance psychology, I work with clients to create repeatable routines that build confidence, self-efficacy, and mental clarity.

We don’t just talk about problems—we identify patterns, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and take strategic steps forward. If you’re ready to take ownership of your growth, I’ll meet you with energy, structure, and accountability. My goal is simple: help you build a stronger foundation so you can move through life with more purpose, resilience, and momentum.
