My goal is to take a holistic, "whole-person" approach to each client I work with. I have traditionally worked with children, adolescents, young adults, and families, in a number of settings. I am passionate about facilitating support groups that improve social skills, create opportunities to grow with others, and provide a safe space to transform in. The Creative Arts and elements of nature are common therapeutic tools, that are used during sessions.
I hope to join you on this path towards finding peace and tranquility in your life.

I believe that we can think outside of the box when it comes to counseling and therapy. If we reflect on how people have traditionally healed throughout history, it was often-times through community connections, in nature, and not always in a 1:1 format. Adhering to all NYS ethics and standards, I invite clients to consider sessions outdoors, in a group format, and not always in an office setting.
