I am a psychologist that is licensed in Florida and New York with 9 years of experience. I have worked as a school psychologist, trauma-informed postdoctoral resident and a clinical psychologist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, executive functioning deficits, relationship difficulties, school problems, parenting struggles and career challenges. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma and/or abuse. My counseling style is empathetic and warm. I believe in treating anyone with compassion, understanding and openness and I don't believe in the stigmatization of clinical diagnoses. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client-centered, and integrated theory. I will tailor our treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes bravery and initiative to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take those steps I am here to help guide you and provide support along your journey of self-discovery as you unlock your potential and continue to grow as a person. I look forward to working with you!

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

Clients can expect to take therapeutic tools, exercises, journals, and worksheets they can refer back to from sessions with me. I strongly believe that therapy should include a talking portion as well as a portion to learn and practice skills so clients can use them in their lives.

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

My biggest strengths as a clinician are my open-mindedness, and my ability to empathize with others and think out of the box.
