No matter what path we take in life, we will be met with suffering and hardship along the way. This is a natural aspect of the human condition. My goal as a Therapist is to assist you with identifying how your suffering manifests (whether it be due to depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, life change etc.) and the variety of ways in which you can cope with the distressing situations in your life.

I am deeply passionate about supporting people through life’s challenges and empowering them to live authentic and fulfilling lives. I specialize in working with teens and adults struggling with maladaptive behavior patterns such as eating disorders and substance abuse, and common co-occurring issues including low self-esteem, anxiety, mood disorders, and trauma. I provide a warm, comfortable, and judgment-free space to explore thoughts, feelings, experiences, and vulnerabilities. My goal is to engage clients in a process of self-reflection, self-discovery, and positive change in order to achieve a greater sense of wellbeing.

As a Clinical Social Worker, my focus in therapy lies in creating a safe and supportive environment that allows you the opportunity for exploration, healing and growth. I believe in creating an alliance and taking a person-centered approach to treating your mental health concerns. I’m here to help create dialogue about issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, and work-related stress. Through this dialogue I want to help you improve your mind-body connection, develop coping skills that will strengthen your emotional regulation, and reduce uncomfortable psychiatric symptoms.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker in New York with over 15 years of clinical experience. I enjoy facilitating individual, couple, family, and group therapy, and my focus is with adults who continue to address chronic mental health symptoms. I work in a partnership with clients where they are the "driver" and I can support the various "routes" in getting to the "destination" - success is defined by the client. I use CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and Solution focused therapy. I believe in a strength based perspective to treatment because the client already knows what doesn't work.

There are times when life can overwhelm us. The daily grind of tending to mundane things like cooking and cleaning, working to pay bills, interpersonal relationships, childcare and more, can cause us stress. Breakups, difficulty finding the right partner, struggles around sexuality and intimacy, loss of a job or loved one, birth of child or difficulty birthing a child can impact us emotionally in ways we don’t realize. Though we may not have control over everything that happens in life, we can equip ourselves with the tools to tackle what comes our way.

Whether you are seeking therapy for the first time, or have been in therapy many times before, it’s so important to find a therapist that feels like the right fit for you. I want to personally acknowledge the courage, intentionality, and investment you have placed in yourself in deciding to seek support in the form of counseling/therapy. We may struggle with relationships, work, life transitions, caregiving, chronic illness and pain, loss, stress and trauma related symptoms, or other issues. Create space for yourself to engage in a restorative, empowering therapeutic experience and receive the support you deserve.

I began my work with the HIV/AIDS population, the homeless population and those who struggled with drug abuse. Spending many years with these precious people, provided me with insight of how the mind and the heart works. It was the perfect foundation to my understanding human pain and resilience, as I had to work with many diagnosis. I am a Christian psychotherapist but I have a deep understanding of the religions of many of our world's cultures, therefore my "doors are open" to people of all faiths. I am happy to use your personal faith to help you find meaning in your challenges.

How can I find a therapist in Brooklyn?

Search for nearby therapists or counselors by inputting your city, town, or suburb; or zip code; or a provider’s name into the search bar. From there, you can filter providers by the issues they treat, cost, insurance, gender, and other factors to find providers who are well-suited to your needs. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
