BlueShield of Northeastern New York Therapists in Lake Grove, NY
I want to congratulate you on taking the first step towards healing, change and acceptance. Choosing a therapist can feel like a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be that way. As a prospective client I want to partner with you in your journey of self- reflection; affirming and knowing that you have made the best possible investment into yourself. I work with individuals (adults and teenagers), as well as couples. During therapy I work with clients collaboratively to build healthy coping mechanisms, learning how to deal with life’s stressors.

I create a nonjudgmental, safe space for my patients to explore their challenges. I approach my work with you through a trauma-focused lens and acknowledge how emotion is central to human experience. I draw from relational and psychodynamic approaches, focusing on how our past pains can influence our present patterns and cycles. Through deep listening, I am able to guide you through your own journey of self-awareness and reflection. I completed my education in Mental Health Counseling at the University at Albany, where I also served as a peer assistant and training instructor for a mental health and crisis hotline.

There are hundreds of reasons why I became a counselor, but the main reason is the want to help guide clients into a better quality of life! The basis of my clinician approach is the strong belief in creating a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. Maintaining a safe place for clients (like you!) to be supported with genuine care and empathy is integral for me as your counselor. Together we will work towards making positive life changes, finding and utilizing your strengths, meet your therapeutic goals, and relieve your distress.

I understand how difficult it can be to take that first step in starting therapy. Whether you're feeling anxious, questioning your relationships, struggling with self-esteem, or finding yourself stuck in the same patterns, therapy can be a place to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.

My clients want to work with me to achieve their goals and resolve any conflict they are experiencing in their life. I enjoy working with clients experiencing depression and anxiety, OCD, addictive behaviors, eating disorders (specialize), difficult life experiences, trauma, ASD, medically compromised family issues, chronic mental health issues. I truly enjoy helping my clients with grief and loss so that they can move on from grief while holding onto their loved ones/or things. I like family involvement or family work because I look at barriers as a family of origin issue and a family goal, not just the “identified patient”.
