About
I am a Mental Health Counselor, licensed in the state of New York with over 4 years of experience providing psychotherapy and behavioral healthcare services. I am also a Nationally Board Certified Counselor. I often work with individuals looking to manage symptoms of past trauma, depression, and anxiety. I also often assist individuals with their personal and professional development. If you are familiar with some of the various approaches to counseling, you might recognize ones I often use with my clients -- such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and others. I try to take an eclectic approach, unless there is a specific intervention which has significantly helped in the past. It’s incredibly important to me that I provide client-centered treatment, and my clients feel like the time we spend together is a collaborative process they can benefit from.
I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I am a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community and have extensive experience providing services within this community.
Asking for help is one of the most difficult steps in the process! If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
