Hello and welcome to BetterHelp. I am a Licensed Mental Heath Counselor in New York. I became a mental health therapist because I know firsthand the life-changing impact that genuine support and guidance can have during difficult times. My own journey through therapy inspired me to dedicate my career to helping others find hope, healing, and strength — just as my therapist once did for me. With over 14 years of experience in the field, I take a compassionate, holistic approach to therapy. I believe that every person is unique, and I’m committed to truly getting to know you — your story, your struggles, and your strengths — so that together, we can create a path forward that meets your specific needs. It’s been my privilege to support individuals through a wide range of life’s challenges. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or navigating major life transitions, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and unwavering support.
