Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Yonkers, NY

I am a Licensed New York State Marriage and Family Therapist. I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in therapy as well as other modalities. ACT Therapy focuses on increasing mindfulness skills that help her patients recognize and address challenges that have occurred due to attempts at suppressing, managing, or trying to control one’s emotional experiences.

Therapy is a collaborative journey. Together, we’ll explore the patterns in your life, uncover your strengths, and develop practical tools to help you move forward with confidence. My approach blends evidence-based methods—such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-informed care—with a deep respect for your individual story and pace.

I believe therapy works best when it’s built on trust and partnership. You bring your experiences and willingness to grow; I bring my expertise, empathy, and professional training. Together, we create a safe, supportive space where real change can happen.

I want you to know that my door is always open. And I'd give my all to your needs. I specialize in anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, as well as personality disorders. And I work with adults and seniors. Here to help you find the right avenue for your life.

I have nearly 15 years of experience supporting adults and professionals who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. I’m licensed in NY, NJ, Arizona and Florida, and my focus is on creating a warm, safe, and collaborative space where we can work toward your goals together.

I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of meaningful growth. You are the captain of the ship, guiding the direction of your healing, and I serve as a trusted co-captain helping you navigate the course. I may offer tools or “homework” to support your progress between sessions, but I also value simply holding space for you to reflect and be yourself.

Compassion and integrity are central to my therapeutic process—I show up with consistency, care, and professionalism so you always feel supported and understood. Together, we’ll focus on cultivating deeper self-awareness, emotional balance, and more fulfilling connections in your life.

Life is hard enough, starting therapy doesn't have to make it harder. As your therapist, I am dedicated to guiding you through life's challenges and helping you become the best version of yourself. I use a blend of psychodynamic and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, I emphasize the importance of relationships and meet you where you are on your unique journey. Let's collaborate in a safe, judgment-free space, exploring your unique journey and strengthening your connections for positive change.

Does adulting or thinking about the future make you second guess yourself? Having challenges with postpartum or not feeling like yourself? Close to graduating? Going through a transition or struggling with anxiety, overthinking, low self-esteem, life stressors? Let's talk about it!

I hope to help you find your style of adjusting, coping, and healing! This is through a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to process life transitions and stressors.

For over 10 years, I have worked alongside individuals navigating some of life's most difficult challenges, including trauma, addiction, incarceration, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and major life transitions. These experiences have taught me that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.

I believe that our past experiences often shape how we see ourselves and the world around us. Together, we can explore the beliefs and patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process difficult experiences, and build a stronger foundation for the future. My style is warm, collaborative, and direct, providing both support and gentle challenge as you work toward your goals.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for a new chapter, I am committed to meeting you where you are and helping you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.
