Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Garden City, NY


I come from a very diverse training background with 12 years of experience working with various cultures, races, ages, genders, and diagnoses. I believe change is always possible, but sometimes we just need a little help. I understand that human beings instinctively gravitate towards happiness, but at times feel stuck with achieving their goals. It is then wise to seek assistance from a professional who can help come up with some answers to produce positive changes in your life.
