Therapists in North Collins, NY

Hi there! I am here to help you, and to understand what you are going through. My goal is to help you do more than just "get through" it. Together we will move forward and start to prosper in whatever life has handed you. My approach is warm, down-to-earth and full of common sense. In a counseling relationship with me, I hope you will: 1) become more aware of what is going on inside you, 2) be able to accept the reality of that, and 3) discover ways of changing your thoughts, actions and beliefs to be more healthy and productive. I draw from the constructs of trauma-informed, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical-behavioral, and internal family systems therapies in my work. Sound good? Let's go!

I am a Certified Anger Management Specialist (CAMS-II). My therapeutic approach involves “meeting the person where they are.” I am committed to helping clients understand their life challenges and assisting them in working toward reducing or resolving the internal or external challenges.
