About me

With over a decade of experience supporting adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families, I bring a compassionate, collaborative approach to therapy. I earned my Master's in Social Work from Adelphi University in Garden City, and since then, I've dedicated my career to helping clients navigate life's challenges with resilience and clarity. Whether you're facing anxiety, relationship struggles, family dynamics, or simply feeling stuck, l offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore your thoughts and emotions. My goal is to help you shift your perspective, uncover strengths, and build meaningful change-one step at a time. I believe therapy is not just about healing, but about growth. Together, we'll work to improve your outlook and empower you to move with confidence.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll begin with what I call the "Get to Know You Game" —a light, interactive way to break the ice and help us connect. From there, we'll gently explore the specific challenges you're facing. This process allows me to understand your unique story and create a personalized plan tailored to your goals. Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or growth, our work together will be rooted in empathy, insight, and a shared commitment to change.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

With over a decade of experience working across culturally diverse communities, I bring a deep passion for service and a commitment to meaningful change. I've had the privilege of supporting adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families through life's most complex challenges-always with empathy, respect, and collaboration at the core. I believe that every obstacle holds the potential for transformation. My role is to help clients reframe opposition as opportunity, and to walk alongside them as they begin to make a difference in their own lives. Through a tailored, client-centered approach, I work to create a safe space where healing begins and growth takes root. Let's work together to uncover your strengths, clarify your goals, and build a path forward-one that feels authentic, empowered, and aligned with who you truly are

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I believe in the transformative power of perspective. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience, I've worked with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families to help them turn life's obstacles into stepping stones for growth. My mission is to be a "Change Agent" -someone who walks beside you as you begin to make meaningful shifts in your life. Whether you're facing emotional roadblocks, relationship struggles, or personal transitions, I offer a safe, supportive space to explore your story. I help clients of all ages recognize that opposition isn't a dead end-it's an invitation to evolve. With empathy, insight, and a collaborative spirit, I guide you toward clarity, confidence, and lasting change. Let's work together to turn challenge into opportunity-and begin the journey toward a life that feels more aligned, empowered, and whole.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I incorporate various therapy techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to aid individuals in recognizing and cultivating meaningful relationships with their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I utilize different therapy approaches, like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to aid individuals in advancing their understanding and proficiency in managing emotions, coping with distress, enhancing interpersonal skills, and cultivating mindfulness in their lives and interactions.

Family Therapy

I employ evidence-based techniques in family therapy to gain a deep understanding of the family system and effectively guide them towards achieving a harmonious balance of communication and function. My approach emphasizes enhancing the overall interactions between family members as a cohesive unit, rather than solely focusing on individual family members.

Group Therapy

Group therapy provides a unique opportunity to create an environment where people can openly participate, express their thoughts, and gain different perspectives, support, and encouragement while being guided by a therapist. It is a space where individuals come together to talk about their concerns or worries, gain a better understanding of their own situations, and learn from each other's experiences. Group therapy focuses on building connections between members, providing opportunities for growth and transformation.

Couples Counseling

Building strong relationships is essential for a fulfilling life, and counseling provides couples with a valuable opportunity to lay a solid foundation and nurture their bond from the very beginning. No matter where individuals and couples find themselves in their journey, counseling offers a precious opportunity for personal growth and relationship investment.
