Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Rensselaer, NY covered by Aetna

My path to being a therapist involved listening to feedback I've received most of my life. For many years I experienced others coming to me in crisis, whether I knew them well or not. I often wondered why others felt comfortable sharing with me and why they were confident in coming to me for assistance. What makes me suited to be a therapist is a natural talent and motivation to assist others in transformation. Providing therapy is my second career; previously, I worked as a hospital administrator for many years. I went into the profession of health administration for compensation and prestige. Security was my motivation at the time. After several years of not feeling fulfilled, I decided to pursue what was missing and lead with my heart

With 12 years of experience as a Licensed Therapist I have worked with a vast array of individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, and other challenges with day to day life. We all struggle once in a while, but things can get better. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to create a non-judgmental safe space where clients feel heard, respected, and safe.

I have been working with the Elderly and their family members for 40 years. I work from a strength-based perspective and work with clients to empower them and help find solutions to their issues.
