I specialize in creating experiences and spaces where authentic expression itself is learned and understood as a method, medium, belief system, and toolbox for growth and healing. Using the Cuddlist modality of Professional Cuddle Therapy, platonic touch and presence become pathways to something deeper—not just comfort, but clarity, resilience, and inner peace. Sessions transform our relationship from strangers to a professional connection filled with nurturing, consensual, and non-judgmental shared presence. 


As you consider what you want from a session, I invite you to explore all of your senses and the full range of what authentic connection can offer. When entering a professional therapeutic relationship rooted in safety and expression, ask yourself:


What does your inner self long to share, feel, or release?


Would laughter, a shared snack, music, movies, or cozy beverages help you soften into the moment?

Together, we can co-create a space that honors your truth and allows you to experience a new level of vulnerability, curiosity, and presence—one where your needs are heard and your expression is welcomed in many forms.

✅ A foundation in Music Therapy and emotional expression

✅ Experience supporting individuals navigating neurodivergence, grief, trauma, and major life transitions

✅  Deep listening and compassionate, intuitive touch

✅A core philosophy that presence, inner attunement, and authentic expression—through voice, movement, creativity, or stillness—are powerful tools for lasting transformation and holistic well-being

Yielle Academy, the home of my Cuddle Therapy practice, also features a space for more discussion-based coaching sessions that I call “therapeutic expression” work and artist development services, including songwriting, voice, piano, and music theory. 

I’m a songwriter and all-around music artist

I enjoy working with diverse populations and empowering others to reveal, nurture, and simply to be their authentic selves 

My current in-call locations are in Queens and Brooklyn, and I’m available for out-call sessions in the New York areas of Nassau County, Suffolk County, Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan. Please specify if you’re looking to book a session outside of those areas. 

To support a safe and comfortable experience:

For out-calls: The session space must be clean, quiet, and free of pets.

For all sessions, Mindful personal hygiene is essential for a mutually respectful experience.

After I receive your request, I reach out to you via text message or email and invite you into the portal I use to manage and organize my Cuddle Therapy practice, which is hosted using the “Get Healthie” platform. This helps me uphold a standard of care regarding privacy, safety, and organization so that I can show up fully ready to provide the best possible care in any session. 


After you’re all signed up, we schedule a video intro call where we get to meet, ask questions, and go over all things necessary to lead up to a meaningful session for you. If we both sense that this is a good fit, you’ll be invited to proceed with scheduling the actual session appointment itself. 


Can’t afford the full rate listed on my profile? Inquire about my current sliding scale rates, current sales/promotions, and credit options! From the beginning, I’ve cared about my services being accessible to folks with varying resources, and I continue to incorporate that into my strive for sustainability. 


Sessions must be paid at least 24 hours prior to the appointment, or else the session will not take place. Under exceptional circumstances and in all special scenarios, consideration and communication are a must.
