I earned my Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) from Long Island University Post and am now a postdoctoral fellow trained in psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies. I’ve worked with individuals across the lifespan in community, hospital, and emergency settings, and I’m most interested in the places where a person’s inner world meets their closest bonds.

My research has focused on attachment in romantic relationships, particularly how partners offer and receive support when one is in distress. In practice, that means noticing how a person reaches for closeness or protects themselves from it, whether with a partner, a family member, or even with me in the room.
