Great to meet you!

I am independently licensed in NY, NJ, DC, VA, MD, with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression.

My approach to therapy

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My goal as a clinician is to heal, nurture, and promote emotional wellness. I believe everyone and their story is original to them, and therapy should be altered to their individual needs.

What you can expect from me

I utilize a unique blend of person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT), motivational interviewing, solution-focused, and reality-based modalities. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
