I am passionate about working with teens (15+), teen parents, BIPOC communities, young adults, and adults. I am experienced in supporting individuals experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, stress management, and mood disorders. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques, person-centered therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches.
I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Medaille College, completing clinical training in diverse settings, including community mental health centers, inpatient substance use rehabilitation facilities, and outpatient practices. I also collaborate with other professionals to provide therapeutic group counseling opportunities.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your challenges, reconnect with your strengths, and begin to heal.
