"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly." I am a compassionate and experienced Clinical Psychologist attending to the emotional and psychological needs of individuals, children, families and couples in a safe and confidential environment. I treat trauma, dissociation, anxiety, depression, anger and relationship issues. I have significant clinical experience treating trauma based disorders as well as dissociative disorders.

I believe we all have the ability and the desire to work through difficulties with the guidance and support of an authentic, empathetic counselor. I have adopted this belief as a result of my experience and understanding that the strength of the relationship between counselor and client is the most powerful therapeutic tool for all individuals. I have extensive experience working with children and adolescents of all ages (pre k- college) and have dedicated my career to supporting the mental health, as well as the social, emotional and academic wellbeing of the students I serve.

Sometimes all that stands in the way of your happiness and peace of mind is your own thoughts. It's remarkable how our thoughts work against us creating anxiety, depression, and an overall feeling of being trapped or stuck. The good news is that having the happiness you want and deserve is actually within your control. Whether it is getting rid of your fear, understanding why you are so sad, dreaming of a healthier relationship, or just trying to figure out what will actually make you happy, I am here to help you learn how to take control of your life.

You are most likely here because you, maybe your partner or your child, feel sad, overwhelmed, anxious, discouraged and/or struggle with lack of direction in life. You are taking an initiative to find help. Imagine coming to a safe place where you are able to freely explain why are you seeking treatment, what is the presenting problem and how does it impact you and your relationships? We would work together to better understand how stressful events in your life affect your mood and how a particular treatment approach might help. We would monitor together and discuss the progress of your treatment.

Life can be easier! Learn specific tools in each session to reduce anxiety, stress, depression, and simply work through life's challenges. Over the last 10 years I have guided many individuals, families, couples, and groups to a new state of understanding and personal growth in their lives. I specialize in helping adults and children struggling with issues related to anxiety, panic attacks, depression, school refusal, divorce, and PTSD.. My style of counseling fosters personal growth and family cohesion in a warm, friendly, and safe environment.

You're entering a space where you can be unapologetically you! That means you're free to laugh, cry, scream, and vent. I will be with you through each stage of emotion and I am going to challenge you to be in that moment, to feel, and to understand your emotions. I believe that healing begins when a client shows their authentic sense without worrying about being judged for what they are thinking or feeling. I believe that we are all capable of becoming the best version of ourselves even through our trials and tribulations. With the right attitude, motivation, and approach, growth and change will come.

Our reactions to the world are influenced by our experiences. For me it’s meant transitioning from city life in Brooklyn & NYC to quieter moves upstate in the Hudson Valley; it’s meant growing from a young adult into family life & active mother of 3; and changing gears to be able to support and treat youngsters and adults in a way that best serves each of them. I've spent most of my career servicing children, teens and their families in emotional, behavioral, academic & psychiatric capacities. I've supported kids and teens through mental illness, trauma, developmental delays, learning issues,

I have trained and specialize in several modalities such as EMDR, Forensic, DBT, CBT, Family Therapy, Addictions etc. I provide ongoing assessment, diagnosis, psychotherapy and treatment planning to a socio-culturally diverse adult and adolescent population diagnosed with a full-spectrum of psychiatric disorders including bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, anxiety-related disorders, substance abuse and dependence, PTSD, ADHD, Post-Partum Depression, Trauma related issues, Family and relationship issues etc.

In life, we all experience both positive and negative life events that affect our mental health and well-being. It's not just the actual experiences that we encounter, but how we come out of those experiences as the best version of ourselves that creates space for even more growth and maturity, no matter how big or small the event/experience is. Therapy is an ongoing process that takes dedication and an open mind. Our mental health directly correlates to our physical, emotional and spiritual health. It starts with the mind. How we interpret and receive things is essential in understanding who we are and who we want to be.
