Great to meet you!

I have dedicated my professional life to serving others. I am a Doctor of Social Work, an LCSW, a LMSW. and a BSW. I am a licensed master social worker in New York and a licensed clinical social worker in Florida, providing mental health services to adults and children. My greatest strength is helping people improve their quality of life and move beyond feeling vulnerable and invisible to society.

My approach to therapy

Clinically, I am a humanistic therapist. I apply an eclectic approach to supporting clients, often drawing heavily on Person-Centered Theory. I am a Trauma-Informed clinician who promotes a safe, empowering, and healing culture. I am proud to work with the LGBTQ+ population and veterans.

What you can expect from me

People should know that I have lived experiences. I empathize with people who are stuck in trauma. I work very well with seniors who feel lonely and isolated. People with severe mental health disorders do very well when I follow them from hospitalization to home. Life does not happen without challenges, but through talk therapy and resilience; strength and grit emerge.
