I'm warm and open-minded in my therapeutic approach, and I'm passionate about helping others work through challenges to be the best person they can be for themselves and others in their life. I look forward to speaking with you and seeing how I can help!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing as a Psychotherapist, I believe in prioritizing mental health while also being aware of the mind-body connection. I have been practicing for almost 20 years in the community, local school districts, as well as in private practice. I am shifting my focus to my private practice to help meet the needs of those experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other life transitions in all ages of life (youth and adults).

I truly look forward to working with you!

My motto is: "Helping People Help Themselves to a Better Life. I support people with a smile and a reassuring description of my skills and abilities. I reinforce my respect for their choices as we engage in therapy together. I work to create a safe space for clients to address their issues.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NY. I obtained my undergraduate degree from Ithaca College, and then my Master of Social Work from Binghamton University. I have experience working in college counseling, hospital settings, and non-profits.

It is my goal to empower individuals to recognize and embrace the strengths that live within them. I utilize evidence-based techniques to aid individuals with living a life filled with healthy relationships, self-confidence, and joy. I provide clients with strategies to combat life stressors, anxiety and depression.

Early in my career, I had the opportunity to work in community-based settings where I learned the skills to help clients overcome fixed mindsets and develop healthy behaviors to succeed both emotionally and socially.

Later in my career, I led new mom’s support groups to help mothers navigate this unique time of life in a supportive and non-judgmental community. I currently specialize in working with maternal mental health where I aid mothers in exploring many topics including a mother’s new normal, changing relationships with her partner, the baby blues as well as postpartum depression/ anxiety/ OCD, adjusting to returning to work, introducing a new sibling to the family, navigating new dynamics with older children and much more.

As a psychotherapist, I have had the privilege to work with individuals who are brave enough to openly discuss difficult life transitions and learn the tools to deal with them. It is truly inspiring to witness the tenacity of individuals who take the time to be the best they can be.

I believe my intuition and good listening skills as well as authentic ability to hold a non-judgmental space for clients are where my strengths lie. It is in this environment that clients have the chance to tell their story and learn how to realize their healthiest self. Once people are given the opportunity to express themselves with a caring and supportive therapist, change can lead to revelations that can lead to renewal.

Active listening to determine whether we are a "good fit"

In learning about one’s personal strengths I utilize that information to assist in the healing process exploring what you would like to see different in your life and explore options in our journey together. I assist individuals to find new ways to cope, function and learn to let go of behaviors that are no longer serving their best interests.
