Great to meet you!

I graduated from Adelphi University where I received my Masters in Social Work in 2015. I have experience with a wide range of populations as a domestic violence counselor and a medical social worker. My goal is to provide a safe space for women to express themselves and be heard. Whether you are a new mother, someone experiencing intimate partner violence, or entering into your golden years, I am here to uplift and encourage you. My motto is "Nurturing the Mind, Elevating the Woman".

A bit about my approach to therapy

Using a strengths based approach, clients will be able to overcome adversity and gain peace of mind.

What you can expect from our first session

My hope is that you feel encouraged in a judgement-free environment to achieve your goals. I will help you navigate new life stages and difficult adjustment periods you may be facing.
