Let's Connect (929) 362-5951
I know how important it is to have a safe space to share, and I strive to provide this supportive and affirming environment for my clients. I believe that empathy and respect should be at the heart of the counseling relationship, and I value each client’s individual perspective. My background in production and entertainment has taken me around the world, instilling a deep appreciation of all cultures and giving me a breadth of experience in communication that I bring to my work as a counselor.
I value a collaborative relationship with each client that empowers them to achieve their goals. I use an integrative approach that incorporates a strengths-based perspective with mindfulness techniques.
I received my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Kean University.
