As individuals, we are constantly evolving and shedding past versions of self on our journey towards growth, emotional health, and well-being. As a Licensed Social Worker, it is my role to provide a safe, supportive, neutral, and non-biased space through which individuals and families work through various life struggles including, but not limited to, anxiety, trauma, adjustment, and depression. 

With over 20 years experience as a Licensed Social Worker/therapist in NYS specializing in Counseling with Adult Individuals and Families. I was part of the Mental Health Service Corps where I received advanced clinical training in behavioral health,

I am passionate about creating a safe, authentic, and non-judgemental space for my clients and welcome people of all backgrounds.
