My expertise includes supporting individuals diagnosed with mental health issues, suicidal ideations, substance abuse challenges, as well as the elderly, veterans, formerly incarcerated individuals, victims of domestic violence, those with developmental disabilities, immigrants, & the homeless. My approach emphasizes equipping clients with the necessary tools to lead a better & healthier life, fostering resilience & personal growth. Make an appointment today at NYUmbrella Coaching LLC.
