I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker with practices in Queens, the Five Towns, and Flatbush, NY. I worked as a pastoral counselor and Rabbi of congregations across the continent for over 10 years, serving the social-emotional needs of a diverse and inclusive constituency. My work with individuals and families led me to clinical social work, in which I've worked with men and women with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and life transitions.
I have training and experience with people suffering from co-occurring mental illness and addictions and have used CBT, DBT, and EMDR in several venues. You will learn the skills you need to gain self-confidence and insight into why you feel misunderstood, and how you can strengthen your self-image. I want you to actualize the life you want!
It will be a life with ups and downs, but it will be an empowered life in which you feel you have the tools to navigate the bumps in the road and hold your head high knowing that you understand yourself and accept yourself. I’d like to help you take the next steps; call or email me today for a consultation.
