Hello! I am a LCSW licensed in New York State with around 10 years of experience providing individual, couples/family and group psychotherapy.
I have worked with clients who experience a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse, trauma/PTSD, anger, personality disorders, mood disorders and OCD/hoarding issues. I have worked with ages 7 and up so am open to all age groups as well.
I believe everyone deserves to have support, compassion and happiness in their life. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, dialectical-behavioral therapy and psychodynamic primarily but will always tailor treatment to your individual needs.
I look forward to working with you!
