I am a Licensed Clinician with a Counseling Psychology Masters of Science and post graduate certifications, including Trauma Focused CBT, Trauma informed care, Person Centered care, and Psychotherapy. I also tailor my approach with Family Systems therapy, Existential, cultural and spiritual based counseling. I have over 10 years experience working in different mental health practice settings treating a range of diagnoses. I am dually Licensed to practice in NY and FL States. What is your approach to therapy? I specialize in trauma, empowering others to access their innate strengths to cope with the challenges life brings. Using Person Centered care and CBT techniques in Psychotherapy, setting treatment goals collaboratively, I provide psychoeducation to assist clients in gaining deeper insights into the subconscious. I enjoy working with women overcoming trauma, and young adults, growing as young professionals, equipping clients with the tools they need to manage stress, finding balance and peace. What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you? I help my clients find inner peace. They can leave our session feeling calm, with insights deepening their relationship with themselves, a sense of fulfillment and purpose, coping strategies, improved interpersonal relationships, self love, and life long skills to problem solve and manage symptoms of anxiety and depression. I have a down to earth personality and create a warm and safe environment, with high regard for authenticity and spirituality.
