Arielle’s work is grounded in evidence, curiosity, and respect for complexity.
More about Arielle
Arielle’s style is active, collaborative, and direct. She cares about creating a space where clients feel understood without having to over-explain. Therapy may include skills, processing, and trauma work, with the goal of helping clients move out of fear and avoidance and toward a life that feels more free, connected, and worth living.
Before opening her private practice, Arielle worked across a range of clinical settings, including schools, community mental health, outpatient eating disorder treatment, IOP-level care, and DBT-focused private practice. These experiences shaped a flexible, systems-aware approach to therapy: one that considers the client, their environment, their relationships, and the supports around them.
Arielle is also neurodivergent herself, which informs her respect for therapy that is flexible and responsive to the person in front of her. She is especially interested in tailoring evidence-based treatment for people whose brains, bodies, sensory systems, and communication styles do not always fit neatly into standard therapy models.
She earned her MSW from NYU Silver School of Social Work and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Literature from Franklin & Marshall College.
On her days off, Arielle can usually be found walking her dog, spending time with her family, or rearranging something in her apartment that probably did not need to be rearranged.
