Licensed to practice in New York and accepts 36 insurances. Specializes in Anxiety, Depression, Spirituality
I began my career working in family crisis services, including child protection and foster care. I’ve also supported individuals with disabilities and provided career guidance through my work with the state. While these experiences have shaped my approach, individual and group counseling are truly where I feel most passionate and effective. I am a Christian and draw strength from my faith. For clients who would like to incorporate spirituality into our work, I am happy to do so. At the same time, I fully respect and support clients who prefer a non-spiritual approach—your comfort and goals guide the process.
The best way to get to learn about someone is to hear their story. I start sessions by asking you to tell me yours. Please feel free to reach out if you do not see an appointment time that works for your schedule. I may be able to accommodate alternative arrangements when possible.
I have experience helping clients navigate stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, as well as career-related challenges. I believe you are the expert of your own story and already possess strengths that can help you overcome life’s difficulties. My role is to help you uncover those strengths, unlearn patterns that no longer serve you, and build healthier, more effective ones. Seeking change takes courage, and choosing a more fulfilling, balanced life is a powerful first step. I’m here to support and empower you along that journey.
Someone who genuinely wants support and is willing to actively engage in the process. They come ready to open up, share honestly, and take responsibility for their role in the client-therapist relationship. If a client wants space to vent, that’s absolutely welcome; however, those who prefer the therapist to do most of the talking may not be the best fit. I’m able to support clients most effectively when I have a clear understanding of their unique circumstances, which requires an open, two-way dialogue.
