Great to meet you!

Reaching out for help can be scary. I aim to make that process a smooth one with support and encouragement. I am a Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience. Clients come to me with a wide range of concerns, such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, illness and much more. I help them to understand themselves and their circumstances more fully. Together in a warm, supportive therapeutic relationship, we collaborate making changes in one's circumstances, life, and oneself.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My clients often describe me as down to earth and approachable, perhaps because I treat my clients the way I would hope a family member in need would be. My therapeutic style is eclectic, drawing on several theoretical perspectives, but always tailoring to the needs of each person I work with.


I hold degrees from Fordham University and SUNY Stony Brook in psychology and social work and work as an adjunct professor in addition to my counseling practice.

What you can expect from our first session

What I see time and time again for clients who come to me is a feeling of powerlessness. Whether it be over their symptoms, their family members, relationships and even themselves. Working together in a warm, supportive therapeutic relationship, we collaborate to regain some of that power back, making changes in one's circumstances, life, and oneself, at their own pace. After a first session, you will have an understanding of how we will work together to make these improvements in your life.
