About me

Thank you for taking the first step by reaching out for help!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State. I have over 6 years of counseling experience specializing in drug and alcohol addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and more. I have worked in substance abuse facilities, domestic violence centers, hospitals, and other mental health clinics. I primarily utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy however I also often use techniques derived from Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy.

I believe that each person is the expert on their own life so I hope that working together you can guide me to help develop goals and work through struggles. Life can throw many challenges at us and I believe that working through these trials by partnering with a counselor can be very scary but incredibly rewarding. Everyone has the right to live their life as their happiest and healthiest self and I believe I can help you achieve this. I look forward to hearing from you as you begin your journey to a better you!
