I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, and identity-related concerns. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to build coping skills, improve self-esteem, and navigate life’s challenges with more confidence. I received my degree in Mental Health Counseling from SUNY Old Westbury and have worked in a variety of clinical settings.
I utilize CBT, ACT, psychodynamic therapy, motivational interviewing, and play therapy to assist clients in understanding their emotions, coping with life’s challenges, and working toward positive mindsets. I use a multicultural and identity-focused lens to help clients recognize how culture, relationships, and personal experiences impact emotional health.
In a first session, I will ask about what's been going on in your life, what's bringing you to therapy right now, and what you'd want to be different several months from now. We will work together to figure out what matters most to you and how we can meet your goals. My goal is for you to leave feeling like you've been heard and like you have a
clearer sense of what working together will actually look like. Clients can expect a comfortable and collaborative first session. I will be obtaining intake information as well as getting to know you, while answering any questions you may have about the therapy process!
