Great to meet you!

I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Master Social Worker with a special focus on youth and adults. I believe that everyone deserves to be seen and heard, especially when it comes to dealing with past traumas. I am experienced in working with anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, grief, domestic violence, and trauma survivors and use various evidence-based approaches to help my clients heal and move forward in life.

My approach to therapy

Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Trauma-Informed Therapy, Psychodynamic, Person-Centered, and Strength-Based approaches, I help clients find clarity, build resilience, and develop healthier ways of coping. Ask yourself: What would it feel like to wake up with more peace, confidence, and control over your life?

What you can expect from me

I work with clients who may be struggling to cope with traumatic events related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get you life back.
