Great to meet you!

After many years as an educator in the NYC school system, I chose to become a psychotherapist. Traveling the world and experiencing diverse cultures has broadened my perspective and deepened my appreciation for our differences. These experiences have reinforced one belief: we all think, feel, and want what is best for ourselves and our families. Therapy provides a path to help us get there.

My approach to therapy

My approach centers on being an attentive listener, while creating a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to explore their inner experiences. I counsel individuals who battle depression, anxiety and various other mental health issues. My initial therapeutic approach is CBT. I may also use Person-Centered, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as well as Christian Counseling, when requested. My aim is to understand your unique challenges and collaborate with you to overcome them.

What you can expect from me

We will work together to determine which issues to focus on and seek to establish your goals. I treat each client as an individual because there is no "one size fits all" approach for me.


I conduct "in-person" and "telehealth" sessions.
