My therapeutic approach focuses on providing a safe, nonjudgmental environment where we can work together to identify beliefs that make it challenging to live the life you really want. We will explore life events that may have caused barriers between you and your goals, and together work to learn effective skills to use outside of therapy.

I believe that everyone is valuable and have great potential. Life events can change how we see ourselves and the world around us. Together, we can work through these events and make lasting positive changes. I am excited to work with you and help you heal, feel good about yourself, explore your potential, and help you achieve your goals.

I have worked almost ten years as a clinician both in New York and in Texas. I am trained to use many treatment theories, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) and Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) and I have specialized training in trauma, women’s issues, postpartum depression, anxiety disorders, addictions and chemical dependency, and self-esteem/confidence. I also provide care to mental health/health care professionals.

I believe people want to live well, but often things happen that are out of our control which can cause us to have difficulty with managing stress, feeling anxious, sad, empty, isolated, and even feel the effects on our physical body.
