Therapists in Plainview, NY

I am a warm and inviting therapist that has created a sacred space with your healing in mind. I offer my clients the elements that I find most valuable in any therapeutic relationship; support, encouragement, empathic listening, non-judgement, interaction, collaboration, and trust.

Some clients are open to including mind/ body based practices in their work with me while others may pursue a more traditional route. Ultimately, we will work collaboratively on the issues you are facing.

I am passionate about uniting with women through painful and difficult seasons of their life. Many of us live each day with a lack of contentment, a nagging sense that we are not enough, but this does not have to become the norm. Challenges may arise that are difficult to overcome.

I help clients gain insight by providing a supportive and caring environment, while also challenging my clients as my counsel is to always move forward.
