Great to meet you!

I am an LCSW, licensed in the state of New York who currently works in the healthcare system as a behavioral health social worker. I have 6+ years experience working part time in a fee for service providing psychotherapy to children and families. I have worked in a residential program for geriatric patients who suffer with developmental disabilities. I have experience working with parents in domestic violence relationships who are seeking shelter for their family.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative. I aim to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to be open and vulnerable. I believe in transparency and allowing you to have full say in your treatment and I strive to meet you where you are.

What you can expect from me

My treatment utilizes cognitive behavior therapy and strengths based perspective, allowing you to focus on positive skills that that will assist you in achieving your goals. My hope is that you can reach an optimal sense of self which will allow you to navigate life’s stressors and live your best life.


Our team at Centered Mind Therapy partners with Headway and is looking forward to working with you!
