I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey. I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families in foster care and program settings. I have worked with individuals in a private practice setting for 10 years and currently work with individuals using a telehealth platform.
In our first session together we'll start with brief introductions and begin developing a relationship. Trust and mutual respect will be developed as we begin to work together.
Having worked with people of various backgrounds, genders, and gender identities I feel that empathy and understanding are my greatest strengths as a provider. For the past 20 years I've developed and maintain a supportive and non judgmental space for clients to identify and meet their needs and goals.
I have had a experience in gender affirming therapy, mindfulness, motivational therapy, grief, adjustment disorders, positive psychology, solution focused therapy and working with caregivers of family members, especially those with intellectual disabilities. I have found that therapy is most effective when sessions are based on you and can change and develop as you do. I can help guide you in a non judgmental setting to explore your experiences, feelings, and goals. Let's work together to facilitate the change and growth you are seeking.
