Great to meet you!

I am a Board Certified Clinical Social Worker (BCD: 614052). I hold a Masters in Clinical Psychology from the New School and a Masters in Clinical Social Work from Fordham University. I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York, New Jersey, California, Florida and Connecticut. I am certified and trained in several treatment modalities including CBT, EMDR, DBT, CPT, humanistic, ACT, mind-body approaches, and others.

My approach to therapy

While my theoretical orientation is cognitive behavioral therapy I tailor psychotherapy to the individual and will decide which treatment modalities to use after the initial visit.

What you can expect from me

In session I am warm, accepting, affirming, and bring my sense of humor. I have a strong focus on integrative psychotherapy and mindfulness, which I’m happy to include in our sessions. Let’s figure out what works best for you – feel free to reach out for a free phone consultation. I provide teletherapy making therapy and appointments easier than ever.
