My Passion

I am passionate about making mental health information accessible to everyone. I enjoy speaking at educational institutions, community organizations, and at clinical conferences for psychotherapists. I also publish a regular blog on Psychology Today, have authored a book chapter, and published academic research. 

About Me

On a personal note, I enjoy spin cycling, engaging with the literary world through reading and writing (anything book related, really!), and finding new cool things to do in the hidden nooks around the city. I live in NYC.
