I am a psychotherapist providing services to individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind, late deafened, and cochlear implant users across several states, including Pennsylvania, Florida, Georgia, New York, Maine, Texas, and Maryland. My therapeutic approach is systemic, collaborative, and strength-based while mindful of cultural, ethnic, and economic concerns. I utilize an eclectic approach that combines psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help individuals leverage their support system, community resources, mindfulness, and newly acquired skills to achieve the life they envision.
Your input is greatly appreciated, and I would be honored if you could share your thoughts with me. I humbly ask open-ended questions to assist in exploring your perspectives. You possess expertise in your experiences, and my goal is to help you align your decisions with your values.
It would be an honor to support you throughout your journey, celebrate your achievements, and promote positive changes while helping you find personal peace and fulfillment.
