Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with years of experience working with young adults and adults struggling with anxiety, social anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I utilize therapeutic techniques such as ACT, CBT, and DBT while incorporating a warm, non-judgmental, and empathetic approach individually tailored to meet clients' wants and needs. When working together, clients can expect to have a safe space to share worries, fears, and pain. We will work together to get to the root of the problem and identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that have been holding you back from the life they want. Using evidence-based techniques, we will learn to identify and reframe thought processes to inspire change in feelings and behaviors. Ultimately, you will learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable while challenging yourself to live an authentic and fulfilling life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will get to know each other more. Clients will have an open space to further discuss their struggles, communicate what they would like from therapy, and identify how we will work together to reach their goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a therapist, I feel my biggest strength is being relatable while also being a "helper." I meet clients where they're at and can relate to their experience, while also working beside you to help navigate the ups and downs life throws at us.
