About me

I have been a therapist for the past 36 years. It takes courage and skills to ask for help. I have worked in numerous settings in New York, Florida, and Trinidad and Tobago. I meet people where they are in their personal lives and have learned throughout my years of experience that each person is unique. I was educated at Adelphi University in Long Island, New York, and have been privileged to work with exceptional people throughout my career. It is always a pleasure to help people to find solutions to their interpersonal issues, I truly believe that all issues have a solution. I have the capability to work with anyone especially adults and individuals who have committed crimes. I use different modalities to work with people. Get to know me.

Learie's advice and listening skills are extraordinary. What was originally anxiety driven days, thinking about going to therapy, are now days I can look forward to because of Learie.

Learie provides a wealth of experience in the harsh and lonely realm of the struggles of manhood. He is professional and non-judgmental and seems genuinely invested in my life and well being. I hope he continues to be a source of support and stability to guys who need it.
