Accepting Clients

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with almost 20 years experience working with adolescents, adults and families.

Clinical Social Worker in New York

About My Clients

I work with clients struggling with life transitions and the complications that may bring, whether it be anxiety, depression, interpersonal issues, or family concerns. I often use CBT and DBT in my practice, blending the two to find a path that works best for you.

My Background and Approach

I provide evidence-based therapy for teens, adults, and families. I am rooted in Evidence-Based Practices and have been extensively trained in CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Structural Family Therapy. I have worked in Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice settings in NYC, and have taken those experiences and applied it to my work with individuals and families. My approach to therapy is one of openness and compassion. I have extensive experience in addressing trauma related disorders, anxiety, depression, parent/child relationships, life transitions, relationship difficulties and many other areas.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am rooted in anti-racist and anti-oppressive work and recognize that these practices may not work for everyone. I will do my best to work with you to find a path forward that is inclusive and meets you where you are.
