I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over twenty years. The majority of my clients are dealing with work life balance, stress, anxiety, and other common issues with high stress positions. I also help clients navigate challenging stages in their life. I treat clients with anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, depression, and grief. My clientele is diverse with clients from South Asia, AAPI and Arabic backgrounds. I also have clients who are transitioning from college life and/or new residents to New York. I also have clients who are: neurodivergent (ASD), LGBTQ+ and body positive. I have experience with couples therapy. I have also worked with parents and their adult children. I also see adolescents.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I want to make clients feel at ease. I have a conversational style with my clients. I do my best to develop a rapport with my clients. My objective is to allow the clients to feel safe and accepted when they meet with me. I want the conversation to be organic. I my also also ask about family history, social life and work history to help get greater context about your needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I think I am able to establish trust with a client. I am very honest and straight forward with clients. I also try to support and encourage my clients when I think its appropriate. I think humor and positive feedback is essential for growth. I also think resilience is possible and that is part of my philosophy as a therapist
