About My Clients
My clients are some of the warmest, most thoughtful, and resilient people I’ve had the privilege to work with. Together we will create space for you to feel at ease, explore your experiences, and reconnect with your sense of self. I support people who are ready to let go of old labels and expectations, understand the impact of past experiences, and move toward a life that feels more aligned, grounded, and true to who they are.
My Background and Approach
I believe you’re the expert on your life and the author of your own story. My role is to help you explore that story with clarity and compassion, making sense of where you’ve been and choosing how to move forward. Therapy should feel like a real conversation—collaborative, caring, sometimes touched with humor, and always rooted in trust. I’ve worked with clients from all walks of life, navigating painful experiences, whether one-time events or lifelong struggles. I help you untangle negative beliefs, examine coping mechanisms, and ground yourself in the present. My approach is relational, collaborative, and rooted in curiosity. We’ll honor your past without rushing to fix or force, integrating attachment theory, mindfulness, and relational practices, all tailored to you. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in FL and NY, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and hold a Master of Science from Hunter College.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Trauma-informed care shifts the focus from "What's wrong with you?" to "What happened to you?" This approach recognizes that healing involves understanding the whole person, both their past and present. It emphasizes providing care that is holistic, culturally sensitive, and strengths-based. When we face difficult experiences, we often carry confusion or shame, not only about what happened, but also about how we coped or adapted. My goal is to help you challenge these limiting beliefs, reflect on your coping strategies, and develop tools to stay anchored in the present moment. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), I am dedicated to offering care that is compassionate, empowering, and focused on helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.
