I have a passion for helping adults with ADHD understand how their neurodiverse brains work and translate that into self understanding and solutions for every day life.
I have been practicing therapy for the past ten plus years, but let's be honest, I was born a therapist. I have had the opportunity to learn that we all grow together and are blessed to take this mysterious journey in our own unique way. I have lived and learned experience, as well as extensive education and training. I began my adult career as a police officer and then returned to college as an adult learner. I graduated from Keuka College with my BSW and Syracuse University with my MSW and an advanced certification in trauma. I have worked with all ages and population but primarily with addiction, trauma processing, and self-esteem issues.
At the end of the day, I am here to listen, guide, and help you learn the value of your own experiences. I specialize in trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety and mood disorders but I am also familiar with self-harm, self-image, and self-esteem issues. My goal is to help you recognize your worth, set goals, learn coping skills and strategize positive daily living. If you are ready to make moves for a better tomorrow, I am ready to help. I am trained in CBT, mindfulness, DBT, motivational interviewing, with advanced specialties in trauma informed care. Let's change the narrative on tomorrow. I look forward to connecting and working with you!
First- I love being a therapist. Second, I feel that it’s a privilege to be chosen to walk alongside someone in their journey of life and support them and help them learn tools to navigate life‘s challenges in an effective way. I love helping people live their best life!
I've been in practice for 27 years. I have a Masters degree in Social Work and a Masters Degree in Criminal Justice. I also have advanced certification In Integrative Nutrition Health Coaching. Common treatment modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy.
I work hard to cultivate a peaceful, safe, caring atmosphere with my clients. My clients tell me that they feel supported and have had breakthroughs that they did not experience with previous therapists. I frequently provide trainings in the community in the areas of mental health, women’s issues and parenting and have been selected for news interviews on two occasions as a local mental health expert in my field.
I read and subscribe to the idea that instead of a patient needing a clinician to offer treatment, a client seeks the assistance of a counselor as more of a confidential teammate for improving a bio-psycho-social aspect of her/his life.
I have worked in the behavioral health field since 1997 and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2015, making a mid-life career change to help those struggling with a variety of issues--anxiety, depression, self-esteem, substance and other addictions, recovery, grief and loss, family, relationship, life transitions and adjustment difficulties--anything negatively impacting one's daily functioning, happiness, quality of life.
Are you feeling overwhelmed and find yourself having difficulty focusing on completing daily tasks? Are the people closest to you concerned about your ability to maintain and stay afloat? Have you found that once you finally get a chance to relax, you are left with exhaustion and racing thoughts with increased worry?
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.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of New York. My approach to therapy is warm, open-minded, collaborative, and supportive. Throughout that process, I use an integrative
approach utilizing DBT, CBT, strength-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I specialize in
couples’ therapy, and treatment resistant individual therapy.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes real change comes from feeling both supported and gently challenged. I'm warm and direct — I'll meet you where you are, but I won't let you stay stuck. I'm also passionate about working with first responders and law enforcement, and I bring a genuine understanding of the culture and pressures that come with those roles. Outside the office, you'll find me hiking or camping — I try to practice what I preach when it comes to finding balance.
