Allow me to commend you for taking a step that can require both courage and vulnerability. I would consider it an honor to walk alongside you on a meaningful path of self discovery which includes improving the most important relationship you will ever have — the one you have with yourself. Although life can be fraught with challenges, they do not have to define you. Pain in life is inevitable, suffering is optional; let me help you move away from any suffering.

I have been working in the social work field since 1984. About 25 years ago, I started my full time private practice, and can still say that I love what I do. 30 years working with people provides me with a wealth of knowledge. A client only needs to bring themselves and have a willingness to commit to the therapeutic process. I have also enjoyed teaching as an adjunct instructor at The Adelphi University School of Social Work, where I teach graduate level classes in Individual Treatment, Group Treatment and Family/Marital Treatment.

“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall” Nelson Mandela. I truly believe that anytime one asks for help, it takes strength and courage.

Reality can break you down, make you feel hopeless, helpless. I am here to show you the self-awareness, strength and confidence that we all need sometimes to conquer our fears and see hope for a brighter tomorrow.

From both a family background and education in behavioral sciences, I have learned the importance of being guided by ethical principles in making life choices. Through years of learning to balance family, working and social life, I have gained an understanding of the importance of forming and maintaining supportive relationships and managing expectations.

There are difficult topics you want to discuss with your partner but don’t know how. In fact, after tonight's fight, you're sitting in a separate room stewing about how they misunderstood and invalidated everything you said. It’s been difficult to set boundaries with one another. Past traumas have arisen and the memory of them is affecting your intimacy. Communication between the two of you has been a constant struggle. Even simple conversations are becoming strained battles. You long to find a way to resolve these things, but fear that the gap between you and your partner is growing larger by the day.

My approach is positive, practical and proactive. I have been working in the counseling field for over 20 years. While I enjoy working with individuals of all ages, I have a passion for working with women guiding them to regain and increase self-awareness, encourage self-esteem and self-love and ultimately make positive changes to become happier individuals. I specialize in issues including codependency, anxiety, PTSD, as well as developmental disorders and relationship issues. I believe that our behavior is often influenced by our inner experiences, and understanding this connection is crucial in fostering change.
