Great to meet you!

With over 10 years of experience as a licensed social worker in both NY and NJ. I have hold additional certification in crisis intervention, trauma-informed therapy, specialize in helping professionals manage compassion fatigue and burnout, addiction and anxiety disorders in various populations. I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, stress management and much more.

My approach to therapy

My ideal client is someone who is seeking growth and self-awareness, struggling with anxiety or life transitions. They need support in building emotional resilience and healthier coping mechanisms. Their goal is to lead a more fulfilling life by understanding their emotions, improving relationships and gaining confidence in their ability to navigate challenges. Open to vulnerability and potential uncomfortable feeling that comes with growth.

What you can expect from me

I mainly prefer the person-centered approach to address specific needs. My style is direct, polite, respectful and caring. My approach to therapy is not one theoretical method. I use an eclectic approach utilizing techniques that are best suited for helping others empower themselves, ranging from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and more. In our sessions, you'll feel supported, heard and guided in a collaborative process.
