"The mind is everything, what you think you become." -Buddha
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of clinical experience in New York. If you want something in your life that is missing, you can get it, and hopefully I can help you with that. I have experience in individual, family and couples therapy with adolescents and adults. I have worked in various settings including psychiatric hospitals, forensic hospitals, jails, and in private practice.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and holistic models. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!
