Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker with over ten years of experience in providing support to youth, families, and adults across various settings, including nursing homes, group homes, schools, and behavioral health environments. I possess a Master’s degree in Social Work from Adelphi University, and I specialize in assisting individuals as they navigate life transitions, address emotional challenges, process trauma, and overcome systemic barriers. My objective is to ensure that therapy is accessible, respectful, and empowering for all individuals.

My approach to therapy

Therapy offers a confidential and supportive space for individuals to explore their experiences without judgment. I take a warm, personalized approach tailored to your unique goals and needs. Whether you’re facing emotional challenges, going through life transitions, or seeking clarity, I'm here to provide effective support.

I use evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Care. We’ll work together at a comfortable pace, focusing on what matters most for your personal growth and well-being.

What you can expect from me

Clients finish each session feeling heard, respected, and equipped with practical tools to address life's challenges. My work centers on enhancing insight, resilience, and clear steps toward your goals. My aim is to empower you to manage stress, communication, and boundaries effectively. Therapy with me focuses on meaningful progress, whether through new insights, small victories, or feeling genuinely understood.
