I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and Florida. I am also certified as a substance abuse counselor in New York (CASAC) and Florida (CAC). My extensive expertise, combined with my empathetic and empowering approach, has contributed towards helping clients like you discover your strengths and achieve meaningful change. I provide individual, couples, family and group counseling sessions.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session I will gain information about you and why you want to engage in treatment. We will also review expectations for treatment as well as pinpoint areas you want to focus on.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am culturally sensitivity, empathic and I have an ability to build trust in the therapeutic relationship.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in sessions to help you identify and challenge negative thought patterns that influence your emotions and behaviors. By teaching you to reframe these thoughts and adopt healthier perspectives, you begin to feel empowered to develop effective coping strategies. Through structured exercises like journaling, role-playing, or thought records, you can practice these skills and build resilience over time.
Couples Counseling
The goal for your couple's session is to improve your communication, gain conflict resolution skills and develop an overall deeper understanding of one another.
Motivational Interviewing
Engaging in Motivational interviewing will help you overcome your fears or uncertainty. This style will empower you to make changes while respecting your autonomy during your recovery process.
