About
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with seven years of experience, and I truly believe that vulnerability is a strength. In our work together, you’re not just a client—you’re an active partner in your growth.
I remain flexible in my methods so that therapy feels tailored, effective, and aligned with each client’s goals.
My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where we can explore what’s holding you back and help you move forward with confidence and purpose.
First session
Your first session is a space for us to connect and start understanding your story. We’ll talk through what’s been going on, any symptoms you’ve been experiencing, and what you’d like to work toward. From there, we’ll shape a personalized approach that fits your journey—whether it’s mental health, life changes, or self-expression.
Strengths
My approach is grounded in empathy, openness, and authenticity. I provide a non-judgmental space while also offering direct, thoughtful feedback. I remain flexible in my methods so that therapy feels tailored, effective, and aligned with each client’s goals.
Ideal clients
I work best with clients who feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns they are ready to change. Whether you are navigating anxiety, past trauma, life transitions, or relationship challenges, I offer a supportive space to explore your experiences. Together, we work toward building clarity, confidence, emotional balance, and lasting healing that aligns with your personal goals and values.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while also supporting them in identifying primary and secondary emotions. I have extensive training in trauma-informed care and focus on helping clients build self-advocacy, empowerment, and meaningful change.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
I utilize Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help clients better understand and express their emotions while strengthening their relationships with themselves and others. My approach focuses on identifying underlying emotional needs, recognizing patterns that contribute to conflict or disconnection, and fostering secure emotional bonds. I work collaboratively with clients to increase emotional awareness, improve communication, and develop healthier ways of responding to difficult emotions and relationship challenges in a supportive and compassionate environment.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
My goal is to help clients build self-awareness while developing practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. Through this work, you can gain new perspectives and create lasting emotional balance and healthier relationships. I’m committed to supporting you every step of the way in your growth and healing.
