I am licensed in New York with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with depression, stress and anxiety, trauma, loss, communication, mindfulness, motivation, self compassion and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I commend you for taking such a courageous step to seek guidance on ways to process life's most difficult challenges. Acknowledgment and reaching out for help is the first step towards change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
I generally check messages here a few times per day Tue-Fri and respond as quickly as I can. I do appreciate your patience when it takes a bit longer at times, as I may be tending to other clients or professional/personal responsibilities.
