Elev8te Your Mind..Your Thoughts Will Follow encapsulates our ethos perfectly, much like the process of working out. Just as the theme suggests, we believe that by elevating your mindset, your thoughts will naturally align with positive outcomes, similar to how regular workouts enhance physical well-being. Our approach to therapy mirrors this philosophy, focusing on uplifting your mental and emotional state to foster growth and transformation. Through our services, including dealing with intergenerational trauma and offering both faith-based and secular therapy, we aim to elevate your consciousness and empower you.

Our sessions are a safe place to unleash your anxiety, stress, or depression. I connect with my clients easily and take an active role in moving you forward in life-changing ways. Talking with an experienced, caring, and non-judgmental listener helps my clients heal, change and make a difference in their lives. Individuals and couples uncover strategies to recognize and change self-defeating thoughts and behaviors that result in negative outcomes in themselves and their relationships.

I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I'm a trained Cognitive Behavioral Therapist; but I use a variety of approaches depending on my client's needs. I have been in private practice for 9 years. Prior to private practice I worked at Family Service League in Bayshore with all populations. I also worked at Stony Brook University Hospital on the Child Psychiatry Unit working with children from 4-13 years old. I currently work at Stony Brook University and had previously worked at The Juilliard School.

I work with couples and individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress or whatever is preventing you from achieving your life’s purpose. Together we can build resiliency, identify triggers, negative thought patterns, faulty beliefs and behaviors that contribute to your stress or anxiety with a goal of increased self-understanding and less emotional distress. You have the potential and internal strength within you to find happiness. I offer a warm, secure and nonjudgmental environment where you can safely address your presenting issues and learn more about yourself.

I specialize in areas of addiction, codependency, relationships, depression and anxiety. Together we will work towards accepting your value and worth, allowing you to achieve emotional stability and independence. We will address behaviors and/or coping mechanisms including addictions, that no longer serve you. We’ll work to uncover your true essence and power and will help you move forward into a happier, healthier version of yourself.
