Life is a dynamic, creative process - your therapy should be so as well. If you feel that your life is overbalanced with drudgery and that joy is often eclipsed by an unfulfilled sense of simply getting through the days - I believe I can help. If you are seeking a direct, highly interactional psychoanalyst with whom you can engage, explore, learn about yourself, and jump-start your life, I look forward to meeting with you and/or your partner.

Life can be filled with challenging moments, situations and relationships. Such encounters can cause depression, anxiety and isolation. Life events may lead to unhealthy coping mechanisms that can evolve into self-destructive behaviors or relationships. I believe that healing and insight are stimulated by an interpersonal connection provided through a therapeutic alliance between the client and the therapist. I am trained in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, and multiple behavioral therapies. I have years of experience as a therapist working in a renowned outpatient substance abuse and mental health facility.

I look to empower people and to help them tap into their inner resources, to develop coping strategies to manage stressful situations, and to find solutions to their relational challenges.

I am a Clinical Mental Health counselor at South Shore Psychological Care. I earned my B.A. in Fine Art and a minor in Psychology from S.U.N.Y Plattsburgh.

I have found that a client-centered approach works best; whatever works for you, be it career coaching, rethinking your perceptions of self and others, negotiating challenges and changes in your life through reframing those perceptions or exploring your personal history, your story, using journaling, dream analysis, mindfulness to understand your relationship patterns. My specialty now is in addressing life transitions and the feelings these changes engender. My focus is in learning to stay present, to be aware of feeling states, and to move toward clarity and forgiveness in order to reset the dynamics that surround depression, anxiety, anger, trauma.

Therapy should be treated as a space to confide in a professional who can help you find insight into problematic patterns of behavior, increase the ability to take perspective, and understand how previous life experiences shape who you are today. I strive to create a safe, judgment-free space for my clients through empathy, compassion, and objectivity where they can openly process their feelings and begin the path to change.

I have over thirty years of experience in clinical Social Work and am proud of the many success stories that I have helped my clients to accomplish. In my practice, I believe treatment should be guided with consideration of the unique life experiences of the individual and tailored to their specific circumstances. I believe the therapeutic environment should be a safe, non-judgmental place where clients can explore their experiences and emotions to gain the insight and self-awareness necessary to understand and triumph over the obstacles preventing them from reaching their goals and potential.
