Heart Mind Soul Practice is a boutique psychotherapy practice. Founded on the idea of one person helping another to heal: heart, mind, and soul. Based on the belief that a therapeutic relationship built on a foundation of trust and non-judgmental understanding can foster empowerment and change. Our practice has therapists that specialize in anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, ADHD and life transitions.

Healing and growth can be challenging, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether you’re feeling the weight of past experiences or facing challenges in your relationship, we offer a warm, welcoming space where you can be honest about what you’re carrying and feel fully supported. We focus on what matters most—the moments that spark insight, the conversations that feel necessary but tough, and the steps that help you move forward. Together, we will process what has been difficult, nurture your connection with yourself, and deepen your bond with the people who matter most.

Some days you’ve got it together. Other days, it feels like everything’s falling apart—classes, friendships, dating, or just trying to keep up. If stress, anxiety, or feeling down is making it tough to focus, connect with people, or feel like yourself, you’re not the only one. Therapy gives you space to talk it out—no pressure, no judgment—so you can figure out what’s really going on and start feeling more grounded and confident. I bring warmth, creativity, and a sense of humor into the room, because therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time. If you’re ready to feel a little lighter—and a lot less alone—let’s get started.

As a pre-licensed mental health counselor with three years of experience, I help neurodiverse adolescents and young adults navigate struggles with executive functioning, emotional regulation, life transitions, grief, interpersonal communication, and identity exploration. I love working with patients who are curious about their behaviors and want to learn more about themselves as they navigate their personal mental health journey. My hope is to be an extension of your support system as you move through life’s natural transitions, finding healthier ways to express yourself while offering unconditional positive regard, empathy, and a listening ear. If you feel like this resonates with you, please reach out so we can chat further! When working with younger populations, I integrate play and expressive arts therapies into my sessions. For older populations, I use aspects of Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), allowing patients to have a say in personalizing their space and treatment goals. I take a fluid and ever-changing approach to therapy as I learn new skills and modalities to share, and to better customize care to each person’s unique story and needs. In the first few sessions, we collaboratively set treatment goals and work together to find the most impactful modalities to use. Whether this includes solution-focused activities or meaningful conversations to better process life events, the goal is to give you a space to be authentically yourself with the ability to comfortably share feedback and tailor sessions to better curate your healing journey. I was drawn to the mental health field at a young age through my own struggles to find my voice and better advocate for myself. As a neurodivergent clinician, I empathize with the difficulty in finding a space where individuals feel truly heard and understood. This unique perspective has led me to curating personalized spaces for my patients to make strides toward their treatment goals in a way that feels authentic to them. A huge music enthusiast, I love to attend concerts and musicals on my days off, as well as draw, write, and walk my dog around the neighborhood. I'm also an avid thrifter and am constantly pushing my personal style to new heights!

With a deep understanding of the college experience, I offer tailored support to help students build resilience, improve their mental well-being, and thrive during these transformative years. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, cultural sensitivity, and a commitment to helping each student feel heard and empowered.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with years of experience in various settings, including university counseling centers (Baruch, NYU, Fordham), a psychiatric in-patient unit, a community outpatient clinic, and a rehabilitation hospital. I have an extensive experience working with young adults and adults coping with a wide range of mental disorders and life stressors (e.g., depression; anxiety; trauma; adjustment issues; acculturation issues; interpersonal difficulties; racial trauma). I utilize an integrative approach that synthesizes elements from various therapy models (e.g., psychodynamic, CBT, DBT). Through this approach, I will support you in gaining new in sights and meanings, building new skills, recognizing your incredible resilience, and breaking free from unhelpful patterns that may be holding you back. In our therapeutic journey together, my primary aim is to establish a profound sense of connection with you. Using this therapeutic alliance, I will gently yet firmly encourage you to confront your challenges, facilitating new experiences and understanding.

As a mental health counselor dedicated to helping patients cultivate clarity and confidence, I specialize in treating children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. My goal is to help you navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, burnout, life transitions, and/or identity explorations so you live your life fully and authentically. I believe that you are the expert on your life and that everyone is capable of growth and change, which helps me be a supportive and motivational partner to you in the therapy room. I look forward to being a part of your transformative growth in our work together. I’m passionate about helping you know yourself better, increase your psychological flexibility, and find your inner strength. We achieve this together in a collaborative and empathetic environment that incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide you in identifying and understanding your core beliefs and patterns, and becoming aware of how these are serving or not serving you. My style is eclectic, collaborative, and person-centered so that care is tailored to your unique needs. My career began with the desire to be a teacher, a path that inspired me to help people learn more about themselves and how to interact with the world around them, not just within school subjects. This experience, along with time spent working with children, adolescents, and families who are or who have been involved in the legal, justice, and child welfare systems, led me to pursue counseling. In my role now as a therapist, I’m committed to using the knowledge and wisdom gained throughout my journey by providing evidence-based mental health care that meets people where they’re at through warmth and humor. I enjoy filling my free time with friends, family, and loved ones. You’ll also often find me scrapbooking and crocheting, or out and about going for walks, spending time outside, and listening to live music.

As a first or second generation BIPOC person, do you feel like you are stuck between family expectations, your own dreams, and your own needs? As someone who may be defined as “other” are you having to constantly code switch or suppress who you really are to move between different contexts? Do you feel like you are constantly over giving to the point of not having time or resources to yourself? All of this can easily make you feel depressed, anxious, drained in your relationships, and unfulfilled. My clients come to me in the states that I just described and after working with me report living a life that reflects their values on all levels, a more empowered ability to take up space in the world as a BIPOC and/or LGBTQ+ person, and ability to ask for and receive more in their relationships. I take the time to get to know my clients and work in a way that empowers them to identify and dissolve old narratives that are keeping them stuck in unsatisfying relationships or situations through an approach that is both conversational and dives deep. If you resonate, I would love to hear from you for a free initial consultation call.

As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) specializing in person-centered therapy, I work with adults (18+) and adolescents who are ready to do meaningful work, wherever they are in their journey. I take a radically empathetic approach to help you navigate anxiety, depression, self-worth challenges, relationship difficulties (both platonic and romantic), and the weight of oppressive systems that can make life feel harder than it should. Whether you're brand new to therapy or well into the process, I'm here to walk alongside you, meeting you exactly where you are and helping you move toward where you want to be. I believe deeply in your capacity to grow, and am passionate about helping you build the skills and self-awareness that allow you to live more authentically. My approach is nonjudgmental, relational, and insight-oriented, creating a space that feels both calm and energizing, where real exploration can happen. Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and psychodynamic approaches, I help you develop the tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. Because no two people are alike, I tailor my style to fit your unique needs, background, and lived experience. What works for you will always guide how we work together. My path to this work is a personal one. My own experiences with anxiety, and the process of seeking and receiving help, gave me a firsthand understanding of how transformative the right therapeutic relationship can be. That experience opened my eyes to the profound value of feeling truly seen and supported when navigating life's hardest moments. Outside of the therapy room, you'll find me lost in a good book, out on my bike, or making time for the people I love. These moments of connection and curiosity keep me grounded, and remind me why balance and joy matter so much in a well-lived life.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience, I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and ADHD. Whether you're working through difficult emotions or simply looking to improve daily functioning and personal growth, I'm here to help you find your footing and build the skills to move forward. Specializing in play therapy and person-centered approaches, I believe in meeting you exactly where you are. Together, we'll discover what works for you and develop practical tools that support your personal growth and daily life. Our sessions are built on safety, collaboration, and genuine understanding. Using play therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll work together to explore your emotions, strengthen your coping skills, and build the confidence to navigate challenges more independently. Warm and nurturing by nature, I tailor my approach to your unique needs and goals. Every person who comes to me deserves a welcoming, affirming, and nonjudgmental space, and that's exactly what I strive to create. Whether you're a child, teen, or adult, I'm committed to being a trustworthy partner throughout your care, helping you feel more empowered in your everyday life. My path to becoming a therapist began long before graduate school. As a teenager, working with children gave me my first real sense of how meaningful it is to support someone through a hard moment. Paired with my studies in psychology, those early experiences revealed a clear passion: helping others navigate challenges and grow into themselves. That foundation has stayed with me ever since. In every session, I bring empathy, patience, and a genuine desire to connect with each person I work with, because person-centered care isn't just a practice model to me. It's a commitment. When I'm not working, you might find me reading, playing video games, hooked on a crochet project, or enjoying a Broadway show.

Reaching out for help can be hard. We will do our best to provide a safe, supportive environment, when you can feel free to share as much as you need to. We consider therapy to be a collaboration between clinician and patient. Our job is to work with you to help you better understand your inner thoughts and feelings so that you can become the best version of you. We tend to follow patterns of behavior based on our earliest identities. Some of us go through life thinking we are not smart enough, not good looking enough, not capable enough, or not as good as others. It's important to understand that these beliefs are not in fact reality, but an internalized sense of self that we have learned from our earliest experiences. Because of these beliefs, we can often find ourselves repeating unhealthy patterns in relationships, how we deal with stress, social isolation, engaging in unhealthy or risky behaviors, and all manner of acting out in self-destructive ways. Therapy can help re-define who you are, so that instead following these unhealthy patterns, you can make choices that are informed by what you really want, as opposed to what you think you deserve. Therapy is not a quick fix. It takes time and commitment, and it is hard. We are ready to make that commitment with you, and be with you on your journey of self-discovery, so that you can become the author of your own life, rather than letting it be written for you. Please contact us for a free consultation.
