About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of New York for 21 years and have practiced as psychotherapist for 15 years. I have worked with clients with a broad range of concerns, including; depression, anxiety, relationship issues, anger management, poor communication, bipolar disorder, child abuse, grief/loss, learning disabilities, school related issues, parenting issues, PTSD, personality disorders, & stress management.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and trauma informed treatment. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
