Life's hardships sometimes deplete our emotions. Loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, and confusion consume our inner resources, and we might need help from a "neutral" person to detect what's going on and help us restore our inner peace, so we should be capable of having passion and delight in work, relationships and feel good about ourselves. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the States of New York and New Jersey and a trained Psychoanalyst. In psychoanalytic therapy, you'll gain mastery over your emotional world and feel empowered to deal with life's circumstances.

People come in to my virtual office every day with different presenting problems, some kind of pain, and yet are all looking for the same thing. They are looking for peace. What is peace? Peace is being free from stress and anxiety. Peace is the experience of living in your own body and spirit and being at home there. A feeling of calm amid the storm. While we cannot have this peaceful feeling all the time, we can have it more. In therapy we can explore what the obstacles are to your peace and figure out how to overcome those obstacles. I have an eclectic approach tailored to the needs of each person I work with. I look forward to getting to know you and to helping you define your goals for therapy.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12yrs of social work experience and 5 years of clinical experience, specializing in trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and complex life experiences. My approach is culturally responsive, trauma-informed, person-centered and integrative. I am warm, collaborative, and grounded in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen and supported. Some modalities that I specialize in are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing and Positive Psychology. However, I am well rounded to address a variety of needs and integrating different approaches to address client concerns. I focus on helping clients build self-awareness, process past experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping, relating, and moving forward. In our first sessions, you can expect a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where we explore what brings you to therapy, clarify your goals, and begin building a path toward growth at a pace that feels right for you. I’m known for creating a grounded, supportive space where clients feel seen and understood, while also being gently challenged toward meaningful change. Together, we work to increase insight, strengthen coping skills, and shift patterns that may no longer be serving you. I often describe the work as walking alongside clients through difficult moments—metaphorically holding your hand when things feel heavy—while also supporting you in moving through and beyond those challenges.

I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore challenges, recognize their strengths, and work toward meaningful growth. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Adelphi University and my Master of Arts degree in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling from Hofstra University. Throughout my career of over 30 years in counseling and clinical settings, I have been dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My background in both clinical social work and vocational rehabilitation allows me to support clients not only with their emotional well-being, but also with developing confidence, independence, and direction during times of change. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, family conflict, and major life transitions. I have a particular passion for supporting individuals and families navigating divorce, co-parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, and the emotional impact these transitions can have on both children and adults. I also enjoy helping clients who are facing changes related to education, career goals, employment challenges, disability, and finding balance between personal and professional responsibilities. I believe that each person has unique strengths and abilities, and therapy can help uncover those strengths while creating a path forward. My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each client's individual needs. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems, and trauma-informed care to help clients develop effective coping strategies, improve relationships, and create lasting change. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a difficult transition, struggling with relationships, or seeking support in creating a more fulfilling life, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel challenging, but you do not have to navigate it alone. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and growth.

Find a therapist near you in Tarrytown, New York

Finding a therapist near you in Tarrytown, New York starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. New York is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you. 

The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In New York, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across New York, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in New York

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
