As a licensed clinical social worker, I specialize in helping children and families navigate the challenges that come with trauma, anxiety, and life stressors. Trauma can significantly impact daily life, affecting relationships, emotional well-being, and the ability to cope with everyday challenges. The effects can show up in ways such as difficulty focusing, heightened stress responses, or struggles with self-esteem, often creating a barrier to leading a fulfilling life.
With over 7 years of experience, I work with children ages 5 and up, providing tailored support to help them process their experiences and develop healthier coping strategies. Additionally, I offer caregiver support, helping parents and guardians strengthen their parenting skills and foster effective communication and connection with their children. I believe that when families are supported, they can thrive together, and I am here to help guide families toward healing and growth.
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

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New York
Finding the right family therapist in New York starts with identifying what your family needs support with. Family therapists are licensed providers trained to work with multiple family members — whether that's parents and children, adult siblings, blended families, or multigenerational households. Common reasons families seek therapy include communication difficulties, conflict during life transitions, parenting concerns, and navigating the impact of a family member's mental health condition.
New York has thousands of licensed mental health providers, which can make narrowing your options feel like a project in itself. Consider what matters most — whether that's a provider experienced with your family's specific concerns, someone who offers both virtual and in-person sessions, or a therapist located in your borough or neighborhood. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a sense of their approach and whether they're a good match.
Family therapy in New York can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a family therapist who fits your family's needs and your budget.
