About My Clients
I offer an empathetic, non-judgmental space for clients to express themselves. I work with teens and adults, who suffer from addiction, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD, relationship issues, family conflicts, self-esteem, and stress. A typical session would involve me allowing the client to have space to discuss what's on their mind and the session would unfold according to what the client wants to focus on.
My Background and Approach
I obtained my master's degree in mental health counseling from Long Island University. I practice therapy with a strengths-based, person-centered, and integrative approach. I am EMDR-trained and IFS-informed. EMDR and IFS therapy are both helpful in assisting clients to process past traumas and assist clients to change unhealthy patterns that are based on past experiences. I use mindfulness to teach my clients tools to manage stress and regulate their emotions. CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), is a therapy modality that I used to help clients reframe unhelpful thinking patterns to through patterns that lend to improved mental health and increased motivation to move towards one's goals in life. DBT (Dialectical behavior therapy) therapy modalities help clients who tend to have severe mood swings better regulate their emotions, increase their frustration tolerance, and improve their relationships.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I currently work in work in a private group practice that is mainly focused on assisting clients who have experienced stressful or traumatic events in their past and are still affected by these events. The group practice focused on assisting the client with learning tools to regulate their emotions and use EMDR and IFS therapy to work on reprocessing past stressful or traumatic events in order to address the root causes of mental health concerns. In the past, I worked in a rehabilitation center and I am familiar with working with clients who struggle with addiction, OCD, and eating disorders.
