About My Clients

My typical clients come in struggling to cope with stress, anxiety, and symptoms of depression. It has impacted their ability to live healthy and happy lives in the way that they would like to. No one should ever feel like they have to deal with these things by themselves. My goal is to create a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings, collaboratively work toward their goals, and equip them with effective coping skills.

My Background and Approach

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the state of NY. My approach is collaborative and client-centered. I prioritize creating a warm and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to express themselves. My approach is grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based interventions, which emphasize identifying and modifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while fostering present-moment awareness and self-compassion.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I strongly believe that everyone can benefit from receiving therapy. I have sought therapy throughout my life and will continue to do so when needed. No one should ever feel like they are all alone. There is hope and help for us all and I would love to be able to join you on your journey to wellness and self-healing. If you want to learn more about how I can help, shoot me a message.
