I have previously worked with individuals in OTS treatment, adolescent therapy, family therapy, adults with substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders, veterans, domestic violence, mood disorders, posttraumatic stress disorder, and individuals on welfare.
My mission is to assist individuals with identifying their purpose in life, as well as enhancing their sense of self. I want to lend an unbiased ear to anyone who is in need of help. I would love to help you achieve, overcome, and challenge any barriers that may hinder your wellness and growth. During therapy, I use various forms of evidence-based treatment approaches focusing on cognitive behavioral interventions, motivational interviewing, and person-centered interventions; however, the basis of my approach lies in existential therapy.

My experience includes working with trauma, substance use and addictions, interpersonal concerns, couples, and neuropsychology.
Reaching out is often the toughest step and it is very important (and can be rewarding) to find the right fit! Each individual has their own unique story and experiences and therefore deserving of an individualized approach to therapy. The therapeutic relationship should foster one's personal journey to self exploration and growth. My goal is to help you find your best fit and support you in your personal growth, healing, and self-empowering journey. My approach is often described as supportive, warm, empowering, challenging (when you need it), and humorous.

Being a human can be difficult and messy. At times, we all experience challenges that are hard to solve and heal on our own. Are you seeking clarity, self-trust, and flexibility to create and increase an overall sense of wellness and joy in your life? Many of my clients experience symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, trauma, or substance use, and whether you are struggling to transition through difficult life stages, seeking re-connection to yourself from past traumas or challenged by habitual reactions, I help individuals achieve their desired goals with a strength-based and wholistic lens.

Thank you for reviewing my profile. As a client you will quickly establish whether we are a good match. The most important aspect is the therapeutic relationship and that is built on safety and trust. (I have training to help you manage emotional and physiological mental health symptoms, to improve your functioning and quality of life). My style is honest and solution focused. Relationship problems, substance use, navigating conflict, break-ups, child custody conflict? Maybe you are wanting to get back into dating after divorce and need guidance?

I also specialize in PTSD, Substance Use Disorder, & Grief Counseling.
Maybe you can identify with some of the things I have been through which played a part in my decision to become a Clinical Therapist. Middle class & Brooklyn born, I had experienced many adverse situations in my life, which began growing up in a dysfunctional home. A dysfunctional home life is much like an Alcoholic home life, however, without the alcohol. If you experienced dysfunction growing up, it is the main ingredient that qualifies the entire family to seek therapy at some point in their life. When dysfunction causes the brain to rewire, we now have Mental Illness at play.

Whether seeking to work on specific issues such as battling substance use, mental disorders, repairing relationships through boundaries or simply wanting a change, I would like to support you in your endeavor.
Taking the first step towards making a change is the most difficult step but most important. What one needs most during this time is a space of safety, empathy and encouragement. I would like to join you in your self discovery and provide an opportunity for self-understanding to take place in attempt to accept the past, make sense of the present and mold for a better future. It would be a privilege to unite with you in this therapeutic journey, so to help you find change, peace and much deserved happiness.

I have extensive experience with individual therapy, working for substance use treatment centers, and working at various psychiatric hospitals. I have worked in roles including Behavioral Health Tech, Case Management, Primary Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor. I have worked with age groups ranging from young children to geriatrics. I prefer to work with adults of all ages with all types of substance use histories/mental health issues. I firmly believe that in order to help someone, you have to understand them. In order to understand someone, you require personal life experience to truly understand where they are coming from.

My philosophy on the therapeutic process is client centered, lending itself to the incorporation of a variety of theoretical orientations with great flexibility in style.
