About
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Connecticut with 20+ years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with addressing life challenges, stress and anxiety, working through life changes, and improving motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I specialize in effective communication, developing healthy coping skills, understanding how your thoughts/ feelings / emotions affect your behaviors and creating a safe environment for you to freely express yourself without judgement or fear.
I use a multifaceted approach based on personal goals and needs, because some days you just need someone to listen, and other days you need to problem solve with clear and measurable goals to work towards. Let's develop a plan that works best to achieve your goals in therapy together.
I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
I generally check messages here a few times per day Mon-Sat and respond as quickly as I can. I do appreciate your patience when it takes a bit longer at times, as I may be tending to other clients or professional/personal responsibilities. Please remember that Find A Therapist is not appropriate if you are in crisis or in immediate need of support. In crisis situations, please call 911 or local emergency services. You can also call 1-800-273-TALK (8255) to talk to someone right away!
