I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.
I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.
Introduce yourself to help prospective clients learn about you and your practice. We recommend including your professional background, education and any specific treatment areas you specialize in.

I help college-bound teens and young adults work through repetitive thoughts of worry, insecurities, productivity pressure, people pleasing, loneliness and a range of other obstacles. In the therapy space, clients find their confidence so that they can build healthier relationships with family, friends, and partners. I specialize in working with disordered eating and body image concerns. My approach is warm, open, and straightforward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in West Islip

Consider the concerns you want to address — such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, or relationship challenges — and look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Common credentials include LCSW, LMHC, LMFT, and psychologist. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.
