Hello there! Everyone faces struggles. Taking the first step toward therapy is hard, & healing begins when you feel heard, understood & supported without judgement. Are you struggling in your relationship? I help couples uncover core issues, break dysfunctional communication patterns & resolve conflicts. Experienced a trauma? I help recognize past experiences that shape how you feel & respond. I help you learn & utilize healthy skills to decrease feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, fear & loss of control. Have you lost a loved one? I help grievers cope with the emotional, mental & physical impact of loss to help process the pain.
After earning my Masters in Social Work from Adelphi, I learned different modalities such as CBT, DBT, & narrative therapy working in outpatient clinics. I completed level 1 training in Gottman Method for Couples Counseling & after learning trauma informed counseling at CCAN, I obtained a post graduate certificate in Trauma Modalities for PTSD & abuse.
I provide a compassionate, safe space where together, we can explore your challenges, better understand them & come up with strategies to set you up for success. Talk therapy is a vehicle for true change & I believe in utilizing several therapeutic modalities, and some humor, to ensure we find the best fit for you. Let's get you to where you want to be!
