As a Licensed Associate Counselor, I am passionate about helping individuals find their own voice and discover the “root ball” from which their distress stems. I feel privileged to be allowed to be part of each client’s journey and have had the honor to witness many transformations. I firmly believe that this process begins with forming a trusting therapeutic relationship. Therefore, I utilize a multicultural and strength based approach that meets the individuals where they are while building self-efficacy. . I believe each person deserves a non-judgmental space where they can feel safe to speak their truth.

It is my belief that all people can benefit from the counseling experience as they navigate through the often difficult obstacles in life. Counseling offers the opportunity to receive unbiased feedback, positive support, new coping skills and life skills to help overcome and manage the difficulties we face in life. Some of the many areas of personal growth counseling can help to improve include self-esteem, self-love, confidence, assertiveness, and communication. In hopes of assisting you to narrow your search in finding the right counselor, allow me to tell you about myself.

It can be incredibly valuable to have someone on your side who is unbiased, nonjudgemental, and genuinely cares about your wellbeing.

Providing my clients with a comfortable, open, non-judgmental environment is key to developing a trusting relationship.

In our work together we can establish definable goals for treatment and uncover various patterns that developed over time. After obtaining a Master's Degree from Columbia University, I had the opportunity to work in both inpatient, outpatient, and private practice settings. I specialize in working with individuals of all ages who are dealing with anxiety, self-destructive behaviors, or adoption-related concerns.

Therapy provides a safe place where you are free to express the thoughts and feelings you can say nowhere else. A place where you can be heard, accepted and understood; where you can gain the courage and insight to enable you to make choices and changes that lead to improved relationships and lives. As a therapist working with children and families for many years, I seek to aid those who are struggling to understand themselves and their current life situations. I specialize in working with family members to improve communication, understanding and empower them to resolve conflicts.

Our life experiences, our genetics, our relationships past and present can cause us to struggle and feel overwhelmed. Sometimes we need a listening ear, or a sounding board to process these experiences and to understand ourselves better. At times, we need assistance to develop new strategies and skills to cope with ongoing mental health issues. I believe in meeting the client where they are and addressing those needs that are significant for the client and causing that struggle.

My strengths-based approach combines cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused techniques and holistic ways to treat your entire being including mind, body, and spirit. My approach also embraces a positive view of queer identities and relationships while addressing the negative influences that homophobia, transphobia, and heterosexism have on the lives of the LGBTQ community. I personally understand there can be complicated feelings towards your own sexuality/gender identity along with the struggles of being a queer person of color, and can help you navigate these adversities.

Female Therapists

Does it matter what gender my therapist is?

In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.

Should I see a female therapist?

Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?

Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?

It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
