Hello! Welcome to Gaining Ground Roc. We are a private practice clinic located in Rochester NY! We look for clients that are ready to begin the journey of therapy. Our style is highly conversational and collaborative. What you bring to session is what we will talk about for that day. We think you are the expert of your own story and we are there to support and guide. Life throws a lot our way so let's work through it together.
This is your journey and I am here to support you. My therapeutic approach is trauma informed and my clinical work is a balance of direct confrontation of the challenges in your life, while ensuring we take things one-step at a time to maximize success. Together, we will take a collaborative and problem-solving approach to reach your goals. I have a particular interest in working with individuals facing major life transitions such as life during and after college, postpartum challenges for all caregivers, as well as supporting aging families. I am skilled at working individuals with ADHD, executive functioning deficits, and ASD. I welcome all individuals to my practice. This is a safe space for the LGBTQ+ community, BIPOC, individuals of all body types, religion, and reproductive healthcare. The most important thing is that you feel safe and understood.
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York, Arizona, and Colorado with seven years of experience. I work with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, stuck, or just not quite themselves. Whether you’re navigating big life changes, relationship challenges, or figuring out what you want next, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and start feeling more grounded. My approach is collaborative. I use tools from CBT and EMDR, but mostly I focus on really getting to know you, your story, your experiences, and what actually helps you feel better. I also take into account how culture, identity, and environment shape what we go through. My goal is to create a space where you can be open, explore what’s working (and what’s not), and feel supported in making meaningful change. If you’re curious about therapy but not sure where to start, I offer a free 15-minute consultation so you can get a feel for my style and see if we’d be a good fit.
Do you find yourself feeling misunderstood, no matter what you do? You may be feeling fed up with not knowing truly who you are and what you want, feeling like you will never be truly happy again. You might not even remember a time things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to stop feeling overwhelmed and stressed. You're ready to find your true authentic self and peace of mind. Most of all you're ready to create safe and reliable relationships with others, where you feel understood, heard, and cared for. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who listens without judgment and understands their inner experiences, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe and understood. Sessions with me are tailored to each client individually. Together, we can find peacefulness and happiness within our selves and in our relationships. As an experienced trauma informed practitioner, I believe that clients deserve the power to choose the areas of their life they want to focus on. You do not have to continue to feel misunderstood, and you don't have to do it alone. Email me today or visit my website to schedule a free 15 minute consultation. I can not wait to hear from you.

As a psychologist, I partner with clients to help them heal from raw emotional pain, recognize their inner strengths, and build resiliency in the face of life’s biggest challenges. My style is one that is warm and nurturing while also direct and honest. If you’re feeling stuck, not good enough, lonely, overwhelmed, devastated, or ashamed, you are not alone. I have dedicated my career to learning gold standard treatments to ensure that when clients have the courage to reach out for help, I am able to offer treatment interventions that they can trust will make a difference. I am a clinical specialist with expertise in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of trauma/PTSD, relationship issues, depression, complicated grief (suicide loss, perinatal loss), and unwanted sexual experiences (rape, sexual assault, harassment, violence). I began practicing in 2005 and have been a licensed psychologist since 2010.
