About My Clients

I have been experienced in working with several issues, backgrounds, and situations. The best populations I am most skilled in focusing on are issues with attachment, domestic violence, trauma, OCD, PTSD, loss/change/life transitions. I am skilled in taking all aspects of a person into account, including family structure, religion, culture, and individual perspectives. I assist people to see more possibilities, work towards self-actualization, and giving assistance towards being content.

My Background and Approach

I am very open minded and will be flexible to client needs. I have a masters in social work from Hunter College and obtained my clinical hours through experience in foster care and adoption. Afterward, I worked with a diverse population within the Bronx at an outpatient clinic, worked in schools, and the court system. I have worked with people from several different backgrounds of religions, cultures, and family structures. Most experience is with family, trauma, mood/personality disorders.I am very client centered and focused and often will come with a strength-based perspective. I am very inquisitive about peoples interests of focus into their concerns. I am open minded and gathering information that possibly could be helpful in regards to clients’ needs. I take attachment theory and trauma focused approach within many situations, but I am open to other styles such as more focusing on a specific issue in which I may use solution focused therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy.
