Welcome. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with Advanced Certification in Family Counseling and founder of Steps To Clarity PLLC in the state of New York. I am a diligent, motivated, and ambitious individual with a lot of charisma. Additionally, I yearn to continuously advance and gain knowledge in my craft. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems and career challenges. There are many factors in life that aid into one's mental health. These factors may be emotional, physical and/or environmental amongst a possible myriad of others. Many issues can contribute to challenges in one having a more productive and fulfilling life. In addition to these stressors, some people struggle with issues from childhood or unhealthy patterns that sabotage their relationships or current life events. I find that my experience working with diverse populations opened up many avenues in contributing in touching the lives of so many in various ways. It takes courage and at times may elicit anxiety journeying towards a more fulfilling life. In the end, it will be rewarding if you commit to the process. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Life is hard and even downright frustrating at times. Everybody faces challenges in life but you don't have to go through them alone. It is OK to get some help while going through life. The first step to overcoming, breaking through, recovering and succeeding starts with the first phone call to me. Know your worth! Be brave enough to break the stigma we face surrounding counseling and therapy. I work hard to create a very safe space - no judging, no shaming - where you can be free to share what it is you might be struggling to conquer. Together we can get through it! I have had the honor of working with many people over the years struggling with various disorders such as anxiety, panic, obsessive compulsive, oppositional-defiant, attention-deficit /hyperactivity as well as autism, anger issues, adjustment difficulties with new (or frustrating) situations, and countless couples for marriage / relationship counseling. I passionately advocate for children, parents, and families struggling with behavioral problems, issues and diagnoses. I hold Masters degrees in both Teaching and Mental Health Counseling, and I am ABD with my PhD in Educational Psychology so I literally can help you from every angle!

My specialties include treatment of problems related to foster care, adoption, and family and other interpersonal relationships, issues with attachment, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have extensive experience working with individuals and families experiencing issues related to acute and chronic life stressors. Treatment approaches used are integrative and include cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and solution-focused theories. My goal in using these approaches is to help understand your unique life experiences and how they have led to deficit-based feelings, emotions, and behaviors. Acknowledging the need to change is easy but following through is often very difficult. Finding the right person to help you through your journey can be draining but important in successfully accomplishing your goals.
