Hi, I’m Eve
Licensed therapist, mother to two, wife, and human.
I understand what it's like to hold yourself to impossible standards — and the exhaustion of realizing that no matter how much you achieve, the inner critic is never satisfied. I also know that when life shifts, the old ways of holding it together stop working. And that's not a personal failure. It's an invitation.
I work with individuals and couples who are tired of over-functioning and ready to connect with themselves — people navigating major transitions, breaking long-standing patterns, or simply sensing that there has to be something more fulfilling than managing.
I'm 2nd-gen, Jewish-Moroccan, Israeli, and the granddaughter of two Holocaust survivors. I know firsthand what it means to carry history in your body, to belong to multiple cultures at once, and to search for yourself somewhere in between. I support Jewish clients navigating antisemitism, questions of identity, and the experience of living between worlds. You don't have to explain yourself here.
In our work together, you won't need to have it figured out before you walk in. My approach is integrative and somatic — which means we won't just explore the why, we'll help your nervous system recalibrate and your brain rewire. Embodied change, not just insight.
What you'll find here is a space that feels warm, honest, and collaborative — where the mental load gets to come down, and where the goal isn't a better-performing version of you, but a freer one.
Outside of sessions…
You can find me at the farmer’s market or being silly with my daughters. I love to cook and spend time in nature.

Brainspotting Phase 1
The Neurobiology of Feeling Safe, Levels 1 & 2: Working with Boundaries Inside and Out, with Juliane Taylor Shore
Relational Life Therapy (RLT) Level 1
STAIR Levels 1 & 2: “The STAIR Method is an acronym that stands for Self-Trust And Integrated Resilience.
The therapeutic goal the STAIR Method upholds, is to increase clients’ self-trust, natural resiliency, and brain integration capacity. It does so by utilizing a carefully curated toolbox of experiential techniques and strategies. These techniques and strategies emphasize the client’s relationship with the experiences they are having in real time.
Different from cognitive or conversational approaches, experiential therapy brings to the forefront the client’s here and now experiences, expanding client awareness and relationship to their somatic, emotional, and embodied experiences. Clinicians that are trained in the STAIR method, will build skill not only in identifying and assisting their clients in removing blocks to their brains’ natural capacities for healing and growth, they will also build skill in holding awareness of contextual and systemic blocks like oppression, grief, and marginalization.” - Juliane Taylor Shore

Before opening my private practice in 2020, I gained experience in both Community Mental Health and Private Practice settings.
Community Mental Health: provided therapy for ages 5 and up, including play therapy, family therapy, teen therapy, parent coaching, school-based and field-based services, for clients facing complex, systemic challenges.
Private practice supervision and training in an integrative, holistic clinic serving adults and couples.
Therapy is your dedicated time and space where you are not responsible for anyone else, your needs matter, and all parts of you are welcome.
I believe healing allows for a positive shift in how you relate to your own life—helping you connect with your highest self and experience your true nature.
Curiosity over Judgment: Exploring your inner world without shame, so you can get to know yourself with love and acceptance.
The Wisdom of the Body: Honoring your body’s communication and allowing it to be a guide.
Collaboration: Therapy is a partnership. We’ll work together each step of the way.
Are you ready to experience shifts from the inside out?
