I have dedicated twenty years of my professional life to the pursuit of a thorough and complete knowledge of human behavior. My intention is to understand people who want to change, experience satisfaction, serenity and the achievement of personal growth. As a Clinical Social Worker I try to cover every possible scenario one could imagine. Looking at multiple dimensions of you as a person, your environment and timeline, as well as how affected you have been during your experience of the different life stages. Supporting the process to find or reach your own personal goals. I use a bio-psycho-social-spiritual assessment to help determine the areas in your life you need or want support. My approach to therapy is client centered, utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing when appropriate. Most of my practice has focused on issues with trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and addictions. I am aware of the technological transformation that has occurred in the way we live and communicate. Therefore, I have embraced online therapy as a way of providing relief and healing through therapy, counseling, coaching and support. More importantly, my goal is to have a successful therapeutic relationship with you, based on a deep understanding of your needs.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of New York providing brief online supportive therapy for adults in need of emotional support and guidance while navigating life challenges. I enjoy helping people gain perspective using an integrated approach to treatment consisting of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, and other third wave and traditional models of therapy. I will use a conversational style of supportive intervention to help you increase awareness about what you care about the most in terms of moving forward through the Stages of Change. These models of treatment are collaborative in that we work together to explore possible solutions. We deconstruct behaviors and impulsive automatic thoughts and beliefs that may keep you stuck in a self-defeating cycle of learned behaviors and habits. This cycle often maintains the distress you are attempting to release. Cultivating a set of skills to stay grounded in the present moment with the purpose of empowering you to utilize your senses to simply notice or observe what is happening in the "here and now" without judgmental labels or descriptions about your experiences. This is acceptance of the present moment. Finally coming to understand that in spite of perceived barriers that can leave us feeling hopeless and helpless we can make at least one step forward by rethinking the meaning, intent, and purpose of any goal we strive to meet. We are the authors of our story and have editing power! DISCLAIMER: I am a Bible believing born-again follower of Jesus Christ . I can support believers who ask for Biblical inspiration to cope with everyday life stressors using scripture from the Holy Bible and integrating these spiritual principles with clinical models of treatment. As we face the uncertainty of life we can move past our fears, doubts, and insecurities by remaining grounded in the Word of God for strength.

As hard as we try, sometimes it's not possible to move beyond trauma, bad relationships or grief without the right support. You might find yourself not sleeping or feeling anxious and depressed. You might have trouble with low confidence or self-judgment. This can seep into other areas of your life, such as relationships or how you feel about your weight or appearance. I help people who are overwhelmed by life but are ready to heal and make changes for the future. Perhaps it’s time for you to create a life full of joy, fulfillment, purpose and self-love. I’m committed to helping you decrease symptoms, while also building long-lasting skills. I offer effective techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), depending on your needs. I also take a new approach to weight, believing that you can learn to be healthy and happy at any size. Others describe me as nonjudgmental, supportive and cheerful. My goal is to help you achieve yours, whatever they may be. I’ve had clients who’ve gone back to school, gotten promotions and changed their outlook on life. You can learn to believe in yourself and feel good about the future. Contact me to set up a free consultation and begin your journey.
