Endless nights pass without rest. Panic surges through your veins as you lie awake, greeted once more by the unforgiving hour of 3 am. The anxiety and despair is relentless; you’re barely holding on. But outwardly you maintain composure, presenting an image of having everything under control. Yet, inwardly, a fierce battle wages. Your inner demons are tightening their grip, leaving you feeling despondent and utterly drained.

As your therapist, I want nothing more than for you to feel safe & comfortable & will work with you to explore your past, present, and future self. Finding a therapist who can meet your needs, bring calm & purpose to your life, can be challenging, and many times feel overwhelming. As such, I want to applaud you for taking these vital first steps in bringing therapy into your life. Being part of someone's journey to self-realization & healing is both an honor and a privilege that I do not take lightly. I will teach you how to separate yourself from the problem(s) you are experiencing in order to work through them.

Ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing amidst life's challenges? Let's unlock your inner strengths and navigate through issues like trauma, anxiety, low-self esteem, life transitions, and relational struggles together. I am a Provisionally Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and a National Certified Counselor, committed to fostering empathy and collaboration in therapy. My approach ensures that each session provides a safe and nurturing space for exploration and growth, utilizing an eclectic method tailored to your individual needs.

Guidance on how to cope through a difficult time, adjust to new circumstances and to re-discover who you may be in this very moment may be the initial steps to a whole new beginning. You might be going through relationship conflicts, adjusting to change or feeling like things are out of control. Anxiety symptoms may be enhanced or you feel like there is not many people you can go to that will understand. The goal is to feel at ease, to want to come to sessions and to explore unaddressed emotions, improve the ability to cope, and manage conflicts that prevent us from finding a balance. We will work together to create that balance.

We help relationships thrive by healing the hurt that is in the way, so you can enjoy closeness, love, and joyful moments with your family and friends.

Hurt, Trauma, and PTSD are successive, treatable, and preventable stages. If trauma has been holding you back from your dreams, we can help you achieve them. If trauma has caused issues in any relationships, we can help you mend them. We can also help you improve the relationship with yourself and your inner world :)

Are you feeling anxious, sad or overwhelmed? Do you need support in overcoming a significant obstacle in your personal or professional life or in making a major life decision? By providing a safe, caring and understanding therapeutic relationship, I will assist you in this journey. We will openly explore your difficulties, discuss techniques for coping with feelings, reach new resolutions, achieve solutions, establish and reach goals and improve your life and relationships with others. We'll work on developing positive coping skills for unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, so that you can live a joyful, healthy and peaceful life.

My theoretical orientation is integrative, which means I use a combination of humanistic, solution-focused, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, mindfulness based /contemplative approaches, stress management, and insight oriented techniques-depending on the needs of the client.

As such, my hope always is to provide a warm, empathetic, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment-one in which my clients will feel safe and encouraged to build trust and work towards self-empowerment. To that end, I employ a collaborative, strengths-oriented approach.
