I graduated from SUNY University at Buffalo School of Social Work and since then, I have worked with clients with various mental health afflictions in long-term and short-term therapy. I have experience working with clients in group & individual settings. Besides common approaches such as Cognitive & Dialectical Behavioral Therapies, I use Existential & Jungian perspectives to serve my clients. In trauma work, I use the Moral Injury Model, Schema Therapy approach as well as Post-Traumatic Growth Model. I see humor, laughter, poetry…and silence as quite effective therapeutic modalities, too!

It can be difficult to find the time and space for self-reflection and self-healing in this fast-paced world that demands so much of us. Maybe you're feeling stuck in circumstances, relationships, and/or a lifestyle that doesn't fulfill you. Maybe you're attracted to the idea of forming healthier habits but struggle to put those ideas into action. Maybe life has handed you losses or transitions that are making stress or grief hard to manage on your own. All of those feelings are hallmarks of the experience of being human from time to time. Fortunately, you don't have to deal with any of it alone.

Our minds are incredible tools for experiencing life- and yet , the mind can so easily slip into anxiety and overthinking. Our memories can bring us joy and a sense of identity, but we can also get "stuck" in past patterns & hurts. Therapy is a unique type of relationship focused on your empowerment and growth. We'll work together to create awareness around those mental, emotional, and behavioral patterns. From here, we'll seek ways to implement positive, conscious changes, based on your personal values and desires.

If you are struggling right now, working together with a trained, caring, an objective person can be very helpful. You may not be sure how to choose a therapist you can work with and begin the process of feeling better. That makes sense because it is difficult to open up to a stranger about the challenges in life. You may have tried therapy before, and it did not help, or you did not "click" with the therapist you had chosen. If this sounds familiar to you, you are not alone.
