I have worked with child & adult survivors of domestic and sexual violence at an advocacy agency, with families and adolescents diagnosed with substance use disorders in a residential treatment facility, and adults online/in person at an integrated healthcare setting.
I'm here to support clients who are looking to strengthen their mental health, relationships, and adaptability. Every day we face challenges and stress; whether it is neurobiologically based, interpersonal, a trauma response, or the result of systemic stressors of an unjust society. While I use a variety of approaches and techniques based on client needs, my foundation is person centered. You deserve a safe, nonjudgmental space to break down or build back up. I believe my clients have all the answers within them and are capable of great things. My role is to use my education, training, and empathy to help you reach your goals.

I am a therapist who works with individuals that are hoping to improve their relationship with themselves and with others. I have experience working with adults across the lifespan experiencing a variety of difficulties such as anxiety disorders and mood disorders. My area of specialty is with clients who have a history of disordered eating patterns, as well as a history of trauma. I provide embodied centered therapy for people with the goal for clients to foster awareness of self, connection with others, and to reconnect to their capacity for full-bodied engagement with the world.

Therapy can only work if there is a connection between you and your therapist. If you give me a call we can talk by phone or set a brief meeting to make sure you feel comfortable and connected before embarking on what can be a great journey.

I am a Nationally Certified Counselor and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NY specializing in trauma, chronic illness, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I utilize both scientific-based and holistic approaches in my therapeutic work to be both integrative and individualistic with each client. My personal and professional experience has given me a deep understanding of what it means to lose control and how to help you navigate that challenging feeling. I know what it is like to not be able to do certain things and feel different from everyone else in the room. This has enabled me to connect and empathize with those who are often marginalized.

Relationships are blessings in our lives but often a source of deep pain. I see so many children, families, and couples distressed with life: unable to experience the blessings; and unable to find peace and satisfaction. In those situations, communication patterns are often marked with defensiveness, criticism, and sometimes even contempt. Sometimes families and couples have stopped talking altogether, unable to find the caring and understanding that once filled their relationships. My practice specializes in Couples/Family relationships and communication challenges - helping folks learn to listen, understand, and love.

My approach to therapy is warm, inviting, and challenging. I value compassion and "realness" and approach my work with clients from a place of curiosity and respect. I believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful work to occur and work with my clients to identify what feels most important to explore and address in therapy. Our work together may involve processing and organizing difficult life experiences or memories, preparing for major life transitions, or navigating challenges relating to depression/anxiety.

My thirty plus years of experience has been working with adults, couples, adolescents, and families in the areas of abuse, addictions, trauma, divorce, blended family and communication issues.
Therapy is an opportunity to share with an unbiased person the sorting through of life-issues that a person is experiencing. Together, the therapist and the client create manageable and realistic solutions, whether in an individual, couple or family setting, honoring confidentiality and building trust.

Over the past 30 years, I have worked with people struggling with a variety of distressing issues ranging from grief, substance abuse, family members impacted by substance abuse, struggles with mood disorders, men's issues and trauma. These issues are pages of our life story. Many times people feel isolated; the idea of sharing their story with a "stranger" feels too daunting, too personal. I find most clients, in the end, desire to feel more comfortable in their own skin. Identifying behavior patterns and ways we think and feel about ourselves is a huge first step toward making meaningful change.
