I believe that building a trusting, collaborative relationship is at the heart of healing. My goal is to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout your therapeutic journey. If stress, perfectionism, daily life stressors, or trying to please others is hindering your daily life, you are not alone. I specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with panic, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, relationship stressors, and the emotional aftermath of difficult life experiences.

In our first few sessions, we begin to get to know one another, understand what you might currently be struggling with and the origins of those struggles. Once we have built a foundation, we can then begin incorporating coping skills and utilizing therapeutic interventions tailored to you as an individual.

Therapy with me is collaborative and compassionate, free of judgment and focused on helping you to feel calmer, more connected with others, and in control of your life. If you're ready to begin your journey toward healing, I’m here to help.

I believe as unique individuals, we all have the strength and power within us to help improve our way of life. I am here to serve as an understanding, empathic, and non-judgmental support system as we navigate through the initial concerns that brought you to therapy. Understanding the significant relationship between our own thoughts, experiences, and behaviors will assist in developing a stronger sense of self and a higher form of functioning in the world. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, which allows me to provide a safe environment where you are free to share and speak about anything that you feel is important to address. Think of our time as a road trip to self-discovery, where you are the driver, and I am in the passenger’s seat with a map. You may lead us wherever you’d like but every so often, I will stop to make sure we take in the scenery and appreciate each moment our journey has to offer.   My journey into the field of counseling began at Queens College, City University of New York, where I obtained a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I then continued my educational career at Minnesota’s Walden University, where I majored and obtained a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have held previous positions that have allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of human behavior and its connection to the human mind. Additionally, I have experience working with a variety of issues that include, but are not limited to, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship conflict, depression, adjustment, trauma, and mood disorders.I look forward to working with you!

Our beliefs and assumptions about ourselves and the world inform our feelings, which in turn, influences our behavior. However, many of those assumptions are not entirely our own, or even within our conscious awareness. Such invisible beliefs come from our families, our communities, challenging or traumatic experiences, and most often a less developed version of ourself. Living a life that does not reflect our values as a unique individual with a singular world-experience often results in an inner-conflict that can spill outward and negatively impact our the people and systems we interact with.

My psychotherapeutic approach is rooted in Psychodynamic, Attachment, and Systems theory, which looks at the ways our environments, at all stages of our development, have influenced and transformed our understanding of others and self. I practice EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), along with cognitive and humanistic perspectives in an eclectic/integrative approach to facilitate these explorations of self. EMDR is one of the most extensively researched and respected interventions for trauma and PTSD.

I hold a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Clinical Certification in Trauma Treatment from Antioch University New England. My clinical residency focused on PTSD, Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) and severe attachment injury. I have advanced training in EMDR and IFS. I also work with depression, anxiety, disordered eating, substance use, dual diagnosis, LGBTQ+ experiences, codependency, Couples and Marriage, Polyamory & ENM, grief and loss, and major life transitions.

I prioritize the therapeutic relationship, believing it is the foundation of effective therapy. My goal is to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you can freely explore your concerns. I take pride in utilizing active listening, empathy, and unconditional positive regard to build trust and rapport. I embrace an eclectic approach that draws from various therapeutic modalities to meet the unique needs of each client. My approach is founded on the belief that individuals are complex, and a one-size-fits-all method may not capture the richness of their experiences. I integrate elements from humanistic, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioral perspectives, tailoring my interventions to the specific challenges and strengths of each individual.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a bachelor's degree in Psychology from CUNY Baruch College. I have experience in the Family Treatment and Rehabilitation Program in child welfare. I worked extensively with families grappling with mental health and substance abuse challenges. This experience has given me profound insights into the intricate dynamics of healing journeys. My commitment lies in translating this understanding into impactful therapeutic interventions, fostering growth and well-being for individuals and families in need. Prior to my residency at The Soho Center, I completed my practicum, working with a diverse range of individuals, including minorities, children, adults, and LGBTQ+ individuals. I provided support for issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, marital issues, substance abuse, and more. I am currently pursuing my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling at Baruch College.
