Hudson Valley raised NYS Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a working background in counseling adolescents and adults of all backgrounds. Six plus years experience working in community mental health settings and private practice. I aim to guide and challenge my clients through a person centered approach. All struggles are not created equally, I aim to create an therapeutic experience specifically tailored to my client's needs. Anxiety, depression, trauma, whatever may be challenging you, we will work together to better arm you with skills to manage and cope effectively.
In working closely with adolescents and adults, I have a strong knowledge of coping in the struggles of anxiety, depression, trauma, disordered eating and difficulty with self image. As a DBT/CBT, person centered therapist, I pull from various modalities and aim to create a sense of awareness between client's body and the experiencing of emotions.
I do not take for granted the level of vulnerability that it takes for a human to ask for help. I value this greatly and seek to create a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic environment for clients to process and explore freely.
