About My Clients
My hope for you is that you achieve greater self-understanding about the thoughts and emotions that drive your behaviors. I hope to collaborate with you, from session to session, so that we can create ways to help you feel mastery over your life. My approach is...You are the captain of your ship and I hope to be a guide. I am warm and genuine and will always respect where you are on your journey.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over fifteen years experience in the field of counseling. I obtained graduate degrees from Hofstra University and from Long Island University. I am trained in EMDR, a specialized treatment for trauma survivors. I work with adults and adolescents, and I have expertise in trauma therapy, grief, and anxiety and depressive disorders. My niche is working with women along the life stage continuum who struggle with relationships and identity. I am warm and genuine and will always respect where you are on your journey. I do not provide couples counseling at this time.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am an individual and practitioner who connects deeply with the spiritual side of life. This means that I am open to other's perspecitves with regards to faith, religion, and non-traditional forms of spiritual practice. I find Buddhism to be a helpful philosophy as a way of coping with psychological and emotional suffering, and this shows up in my practice for those who are interested. I love learning about various cultures and this helps me connect with a variety of clients.
