Great to meet you!

I have been a practicing Social Worker for over 30 years. It has been my passion to help those in need. I graduated New York University in 1991 with a Masters Degree in Social Work and am also a Certified Life Coach. I also am the Vice President for a Private Not for Profit Social Service Agency in New York City'. In my private practice I have helped clients who have experienced depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, addictions and issues around self-esteem.

My approach to therapy

I take an eclectic person-centered approach working with clients as partners. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Making Changes in one's life takes great courage. I will help you in your journey of change and look forward to working with you.

What you can expect from me

Reaching out for help is the first step in the journey to wellness. I will partner with you to get you to a place of centeredness. I will work with you on sliding scale as I believe strongly that finances should never be a barrier to emotional wellness. You will walk away with some skills to give you short term and long-term relief that you can utilize to help you through what is causing you unrest.
