LCSW, 11 years of experience
New to Grow
Hello! I am so excited to meet you and that you decided to start your therapy journey, whether its the first time or coming back after a break. I am a licensed therapist (LCSW) in GA, NJ, and NY and have been providing therapy for over a decade. I work with adults and teens who are experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship discord, life transitions, grief, stress, workplace concerns, family issues. If you are located in one of the states mentioned, please reach out and we will see if we are a good fit for your therapy journey.
During our first session, we will discuss why you chose therapy at this time and decide if we will be a good fit for one other. We can accomplish this by reviewing your mental health, your relationships, your upbringing, any current stressors, and what makes you the unique individual that you are. Not one person is alike and neither are treatment approaches. We will also find out which therapy you are most drawn to and being in the following session
I have been in practice for over 10 years and working with a very wide range or people with different backgrounds. I believe that all people seeking therapy feel comfortable and safe. Building trust and rapport is the first priority in my work with clients.
Have you been feeling worried, anxious, or stressed lately? Do you feel unmotivated or isolated? Are you finding that you're not coping in a healthy way? Do you think you’ll ever be “good enough”? Many people experience these, and it can lead to issues with relationships, work, school, or health. Talking with someone in a non-judgmental, neutral, and confidential space allows one to “unload” and find solutions, if necessary. Therapy is a great way to practice self-care and give yourself time and attention to the things only you want to focus on.
CBT is evidence-based practice for resolving core beliefs that are hindering your perspective and behaviors. Uncovering this belief system will allow one to be more flexible with unexpected feelings and behaviors.
Emotions are a system of the connection of thoughts and sensations. Over time, emotions can become reinforced in ways that aren't productive. Disconnecting these pathways can be part of the journey to better emotional regulation and stability.
