I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker as well as a Certified Alcoholism and Drug Counselor in New York with over 20 years experience. I am capable of providing services with both adolescents and adults and have had a wealth of experience. I have helped individuals with in the full spectrum of mental health diagnoses, victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and other traumas. I am also familiar with the LGBTQ+ community and the challenges they may face.
I am first and foremost a straight forward individual. I will answer any questions an individual has about their treatment and work with them to set their own treatment goals. I don't go into a session with an agenda, the client comes first so whatever they feel they want to discuss or disclose is their choice completely.
Because I have had such a wide range of experience through out my career, never worry there will be something that you can't disclose. I will never judge you for any of your experiences or choices, and look forward to helping you in any way that I can.
