About this Service

I provide both in person and on-line psychotherapy for adults in New York City.

Many people experience feeling overwhelmed, stuck, alone, and adrift in their lives. Starting therapy can be a positive and courageous first step in navigating these types of struggles. This can be the beginning of finding more joy and ease in life, deepening connections with others, processing difficult experiences, and opening up to new ways of being.

Therapy often involves developing new forms of curiosity and care towards oneself within a supportive therapeutic environment and relationship. It’s quite normal to feel nervous or hesitant when starting therapy or working with a new therapist. I take a pragmatic, holistic, and integrative approach to this work, focusing on compassion and acceptance as the foundation of positive change and growth.

Many artists (and non-artists) face similar experiences of low self-confidence, creative blocks, financial insecurity, imposter syndrome, self-criticism, relationship strain, and self-sabotage. Working together we can identify these areas in your life and start the process of gently untangling them.

I charge a fee of $150 per session and can offer a sliding scale for those in need. I also accept most Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance. If you have out-of-network benefits with a different provider, I can provide you with a reimbursement invoice.

I am currently accepting new clients for both in-person and teletherapy under supervision through Contemplative Psychology.

About this Lister

As a therapist (MHC-LP) with both an MA in Mental Health Counseling and an MFA in Studio Art, I am influenced by the interweaving of creativity and contemporary psychology.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. A collaborative and responsive approach allows our work to be individualized to what is best for you.

With my background in art, I know that it is possible to imagine and create something new and exciting in our lives. Everyone has the potential to grow, heal, and change. Everyone has the capacity to connect to their own inner wisdom and peace.

Background and Expertise

I have provided psychotherapy services to a diverse group of clients from multiple cultural, racial, and ethnic backgrounds, sexualities, ages, and gender identities.

In addition to graduate degrees in counseling and art, I completed my clinical internship at Blanton-Peale Counseling Center, trained in contemplative care at the New York Zen Center, and provided spiritual care to patients at the Brooklyn Hospital Center.
