Licensed Mental Health Counselor · New York, Florida & Vermont

We all want to be seen, understood, and accepted.

You may be coming into therapy feeling stuck, burnt out, or like something just isn't working anymore. That's okay. You don't need to have it all figured out before we start. We can take the journey together and tackle each challenge one by one.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York, Florida, and Vermont (virtual). I work with adults going through anxiety, life transitions, relationship struggles, and questions of identity. I tend to work in a way that's warm and direct. I will ask you questions to promote insight, sit with you in the hard stuff, and also gently challenge you when it may be useful.

I believe who you are outside the therapy room matters just as much as what happens inside it. As a child of immigrants, I know firsthand what it means to move between worlds and how much it matters to be understood in the fullness of who you are. Your culture, your history, your relationships. All of it is welcome here.

If something here resonates, please reach out. I would love to hear from you.

What clients say

This is the first time I've stayed with a therapist consistently. She's knowledgeable, listens deeply, and always provides meaningful feedback.
— Client
Tina was very attentive and conscientious. She was very careful on hard subject areas and patient.
— Client
Tina was very welcoming and a good listener. I felt comfortable which is hard for me around new people, but I automatically felt calm when speaking to her.

Questions before you start?

All FAQs

Do you offer a free consultation?

Yes. I offer a free 15-minute phone consult for new clients — a low-pressure way to ask questions and see if we're a good fit before booking.

How does telehealth work?

You'll get a link to a secure, HIPAA-compliant video session. You just need a private space, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera and mic.

Who do you work best with?

Adolescents and adults going through anxiety, life transitions, relationship struggles, and questions of identity. If it's not the right fit after our first session, I'll refer you to someone who may suit you better.
