Psychotherapy for adults navigating relationship patterns, anxious attachment, and pet loss.

You don’t have to shrink yourself to stay connected.

Online therapy in New York with appointments available in PA & NJ

You might be used to holding things in, pushing through, or adapting to what others need, while losing touch with what you’re feeling in the process.

I offer you a space to slow down, make sense of your experience, and reconnect with yourself, so you can move through your life and relationships with greater alignment and without feeling like you have to change shape.

“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.”

Cultivate Less Anxiety and Healthier Relationships

Hi, I’m Jennifer.

For more than twenty years, I’ve helped adults understand the patterns that keep showing up in their relationships—not because they’re broken, but because those patterns often began long before they were aware of them.

Many of the people I work with struggle with anxious attachment, the lasting effects of growing up in dysfunctional or emotionally inconsistent families, or the grief of losing a beloved pet. While these experiences may seem different on the surface, they often share a common thread: learning to relate to yourself with greater security, self-trust, and compassion.

My work today is primarily insight-oriented talk therapy. My background as an art therapist continues to shape how I listen, understand patterns, and help clients make sense of their experiences. Creative approaches are always available when they feel helpful, but they’re never required.

I provide online therapy for adults in New York City, as well as throughout NY, PA and NJ.

What I Help With

Therapy for Anxious Attachment

Anxious Attachment

You may find yourself overthinking texts, looking for reassurance, or feeling unsettled by small shifts in a relationship. Therapy can help you understand what drives these patterns, trust your own experience, and feel more secure while staying connected to your own needs.

Therapy for Relationships

Relationships

You may find yourself drawn to the same kinds of relationships, taking on familiar roles, or struggling to express what you need without feeling guilty. Therapy can help you understand the patterns you bring into relationships, recognize what is and isn’t working for you, and develop new ways of relating without losing sight of yourself.

Therapy for Addiction and Recovery NYC

Adult Children from Dysfunctional Familes

You may have grown up in a family where a parent couldn’t fully show up—whether due to addiction, emotional inconsistency, or needing more from you than was appropriate. Together, we explore how those early experiences continue to shape your sense of self and relationships, and begin to create space for something more stable and self-directed.

Pet Loss Counseling NYC

Pet Loss 

The loss of a pet can be deeply painful, even if it isn’t always recognized that way by others. In therapy, there is space to fully acknowledge that grief—without needing to minimize it—so you can process the loss in a way that feels meaningful and true to you.

Therapy That Begins With Understanding

I help people begin to feel more at home in themselves, and gently shift patterns that are no longer serving them.

Our work together can help you loosen the pull toward perfection, feel more authentic and secure in your relationships, and move through life with greater openness and increased ability to sit with the full range of human experience: messy, joyful, sad, confusing, and everything in between.

Your needs are valid and you don’t have to shrink or hold yourself back in order to stay connected.

As a Board Certified Registered Art Therapist℠ (ATR-BC®), I also offer creative expression as another tool to access parts of yourself that may be hard to put into words. Art therapy is always optional, but you might find that it allows for new insights and awareness into your inner world.

Grieving the Loss of a Pet?

Grief around the loss of a pet is real and significant, even if it isn’t always recognized that way. In therapy, there is space to fully acknowledge your loss, without needing to justify or minimize what it means to you.

If you find yourself replaying your pet’s final moments, feeling guilt or second-guessing decisions, struggling with the emptiness of daily life, feeling pressure to move on, or are just plain shocked and surprised by how hard the loss has hit you, I can help.

When You’re Ready

The first session is an opportunity to begin understanding what’s bringing you to therapy. We’ll talk about the patterns, relationships, or losses that have led you here, and together decide whether continuing our work feels like the right fit.
