I'm a New York State licensed mental health counselor with a Master's degree and more than 23 years of professional experience, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I specialize in establishing therapeuratic alliances with children and families and working with individuals with depression, anxiety and relationship challenges.

Do you feel discouraged with daily difficulties? Having trouble navigating what others believe "should be easy?" I believe through a Positive approach, we can uncover some previously unexplored options. I work to match the counseling approach to the individual’s needs, strengths, and styles to address identified therapeutic focus. By tackling faulty thinking, undesirable feelings, and outgrown coping mechanisms you’re able to effectively address the Here and Now.

After more than 15 years of teaching at the college level, I turned my passion for helping emerging adults through academic advising into work as a certified life coach. Informed by years of study of Eastern philosophy, mindfulness, and positive psychology, I help clients find balance, improve happiness, and increase resilience. On a personal level, I have experienced the benefits of my own therapy during my adolescence. I am from a family of therapists and value the importance and practice of self-help and lifetime learning as a part of a fulfilling life.

I'm so happy that you're here, reaching out during difficult times is so important. I have experience working with life transitions, anxiety, depression, and those on the autism spectrum. Working on interpersonal skills and self esteem is something I feel is so important for everyone to be the best version of themselves, and so I try to work it in with all clients. Using a collaborative effort, I work alongside my clients to help them reach their goals. It's important to me that you feel comfortable with every step we take.

When life gets difficult, therapy can help. The therapeutic relationship is an important part of your journey to greater well being, and together we work as a team to face and overcome your challenges, identify and work through the stuck places in your life, and support you in crafting the life you really want for yourself.

I value connection and relationship as the major foundation to the therapy process. I believe in collaborating with clients and empowering individuals to find their own answers. I also believe in transparency with my clients. I will lend my own personal perspective and experience with a particular situation, if I believe it will be helpful. I am here to provide additional support and to help you through life's obstacles. Life is stressful enough so I believe teaching clients to avoid turning pain into suffering is important through acceptance and mindfulness. I am looking forward to meeting you!

I take a client centered approach in learning about areas of change you would like to create. My goal is to help guide you into these changes within a safe, empathetic and non-judgmental environment. Fostering a trusting relationship with each client can help to facilitate accountability and growth into a more satisfied life.
