Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of New York, and earned my Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College of Criminal Justice in 2012. I have a total of 6 years counseling experience during which I have worked with a wide variety of individuals, including those dealing with issues of substance abuse, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, mood disorders, and psychotic disorders. My counseling style is a combination of warm and empathetic, along with tactful honesty and accountability. I believe in mutual respect and compassion. I encourage my clients to be honest with me and if something is not working, to speak up and tell me. I believe in allowing my clients to take ownership of their therapy and gain skills in advocating for themselves. I also believe in understanding the human condition of imperfection and the idea that we all make mistakes. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy, psycho-education, motivational interviewing, and humanistic treatment approaches. It takes a great amount of courage to ask for help. I know how healing it is to tell your story and to really begin to have an understanding of where our struggles originated. I also know the healing power of knowing that we have control and the ability to move forward and find solutions for our lives. My goal is to help empower you to improve what is working well for you and give you the tools to help change what is not working for you. I look forward to starting this new journey with you!

Hello and welcome to my page. I appreciate the opportunity to assist you on your journey. I work with adults and seniors, individuals, couples, families, and groups struggling with anxiety, depression, and identity issues. I help by allowing you to tell your story, tap into your individual strengths to facilitate healing, achieve greater emotional intelligence, develop healthier communication styles, and overcome your life challenges. Within a strength-based, client-centered environment, I utilize an eclectic approach using elements of solution-focused brief therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and positive psychology. It is my intent to teach you the tools and skills you need to rise. I’m going to let you in on a little secret. The reality is that most of the things we will be speaking about will not be new concepts to you. You already have so much to deal with and go through in your everyday life, I get it. It has never been, and never will be my intention to change you or put more on your plate. I invite you to recognize that no matter what you are going through or what challenge you are facing one of these three situations will ALWAYS be true: 1) You already have everything that you need to deal with whatever it is that you are going through 2) You can learn any tool or skill you need to get you through what you're going through 3) You can enlist the support needed to get through what you're going through "Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical. Expect more than others think is possible.” — Cadet maxim
