I offer traditional therapy AND clinical coaching! If you are experiencing symptoms of sadness, loneliness, hopelessness or worry, please know that you are not alone. Together we can make positive changes that increase your happiness and enhance your relationships. How about Clinical Coaching? I understand that you might not experience intense symptoms but that you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and lack energy to accomplish personal goals. This is why coaching might be a good fit as it incorporates concrete skill development and self care strategies to help you feel better quickly.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with nearly 15 years of experience. My approach to treatment is upbeat, compassionate, interactive, and solution-focused. I use a combination of holistic and scientific modalities such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, problem solving treatment, and behavioral activation.
My undergraduate degree is from the University of Pennsylvania and my Master’s from Hunter College School of Social Work. I am experienced working with children, adolescents, and adults in mental health facilities, school-based programs, & private practice settings. Together let's take action to implement change and enhance your life in a meaningful way.
