**Welcome — I’m So Glad You’re Here** Deciding to explore counseling is not always easy. It takes courage to say, “I need some extra support right now,” and I want to honor the strength it took to arrive here. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, low moods, or just feeling stuck in patterns that don’t serve you anymore—you’ve already taken the first step toward change by being here. My approach is rooted in “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)”, a method that has helped countless people find relief and build resilience. What I love about CBT is that it’s not just about talking—it’s about learning skills and strategies you can actually use in your day-to-day life. Together, we’ll explore the thoughts and habits that may be keeping you stuck, and I’ll support you in gently shifting them so you can begin to feel lighter, more balanced, and more in control. Here’s what you can expect when we work together: * A warm, welcoming space where you’ll feel truly heard and never judged * Practical tools to help you break free from cycles of worry, stress, or self-doubt * Support in building coping strategies that *fit you and your life* * Guidance in reconnecting with your strengths so you can start to feel more like yourself again I don’t believe in “quick fixes,” and I don’t believe anyone is broken. What I do believe is that small, steady steps forward—when taken with support—can lead to lasting change. My role is to walk alongside you, offering encouragement and practical skills as you navigate your journey. So, welcome. You don’t have to do this alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to connect with you. Reach out today to schedule a session—and let’s begin this journey together.

Hello and welcome to BetterHelp! My name is Brian and I applaud you for beginning this journey we call therapy. Whether you’re new to the experience or you’ve been in therapy before, I am here to help, support and be with you along your journey to wellness and wholeness. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and have engaged individuals, teens and couples in a variety of settings addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, interpersonal conflict as well as professional and vocational issues. I have also helped clients help themselves improve their self-esteem, coping skills, moods, adjust to major life changes as well as improve problem-solving and decision-making skills. I have a Master’s in Social Work from the Silberman School of Social Work in Manhattan and over 25 years of professional experience. Over the years I have used and custom created many therapeutic approaches, techniques and helped improve clients’ perspectives to help them move forward. Clients are encouraged to actively participate in the therapy process by setting their own goals and evaluating progress towards achieving them. Finally, I am concerned about all aspects of a client’s life including your physical, mental and spiritual health and well-being. I am informal, transparent, and very open; ask me anything! Nothing is “off-limits” during good therapy, and I encourage clients to bring any issues/concerns they may have to the sessions. I value being a very safe, accepting haven for my clients. I see individuals over 18 y/o and couples. Thank you for allowing me to share my background with you. Here are a few reviews of my work from current individual clients: "Having worked with Brian for over a year now, I can say confidently that his approach to therapy is extremely effective. He is a master at guiding you to a better understanding of yourself - he allows you to form your own conclusions, while offering his own insight along the way, which is invaluable. If you’re looking to connect better with yourself, and truly understand WHY you are how you are, I cannot recommend him enough." " I have had the privilege of working with Brian as my therapist, and I can say without hesitation that his support has been deeply impactful in my life. He is incredibly insightful and thoughtful in his approach, always meeting me with patience, respect, and a sincere desire to understand my perspective. Brian creates a space that feels genuinely safe—never judgmental, always grounded in kindness and open-mindedness. His ability to balance professional guidance with compassionate listening has helped me make meaningful progress in how I view myself and the world around me. I am truly grateful for the work we’ve done together and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a therapist who brings wisdom, integrity, and heart to their practice." I have weekday early morning (6:00!) and daytime hours to meet your needs and look forward to working with you!
