Find a therapist in New York — covered by insurance

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I’m glad you’re here! Therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve been carrying a lot on your own. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can exhale and feel understood. Together, we’ll move at your pace and focus on tools and insights that help you feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again. My main focus is female clients ages 15-30 who are struggling with anxiety and depression.

I am an experienced Clinical Social Worker and Registered Yoga Teacher. My approach is down to earth, respectful, and compassionate. Clients I've worked with have ranged broadly in age, ethnicity, and gender identity.

I believe meaningful healing begins when individuals feel seen, heard, and understood. As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I bring over four years of clinical counseling experience, along with more than twenty-two years as a school psychologist, to support children, individuals, and families.

With more than two decades in education, I became deeply aware of how essential mental health support is for children and families. I witnessed firsthand how emotional challenges can affect learning, relationships, and overall well-being—and how transformative the right support can be.

These experiences led me to pursue a career in mental health counseling. Today, I partner with adults to help them build a strong, grounded foundation for themselves, one that naturally extends to their children and strengthens the family as a whole. I also remain committed to supporting teens as they enter adulthood, helping them develop the tools and confidence needed for lifelong well-being.

Ever since I was a teenager I knew that one of my purpose in life was to help others. Also, I knew that one of my strengths is the capacity to connect with others.

Understanding the nature of our behaviors and the way we interpret life became a great challenge. I enrolled in Psychology School with a clear understanding of what I wanted professionally, but never imagined the profound and deep journey that I was about to begin.

I received my MS in Mental Health Counseling from CUNY Queens College and am currently working toward obtaining my BSN and MSN as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I have years of experience working with teens and young adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation from my time as a crisis counselor in Long Island's most eminent crisis center, and as a clinician in one of New York State's largest clinics.

I’m a board-certified psychiatrist who values thoughtful, collaborative care. I was trained in both medicine and public health, which shapes how I think about mental health in the context of a person’s life, relationships, work, culture, and stressors. I work with adults across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, ADHD, and life transitions. My goal is to create a space where clients feel heard, respected, and not rushed.
