Bio
"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life you've imagined". I believe the therapeutic relationship can promote healing, and that therapy does not have to be an intimidating experience. I believe that change is always possible, and that life is a journey, not a destination.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over twenty years of experience in the counseling field. I obtained graduate degrees from Hofstra University and Long Island University.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults and I have expertise in trauma therapy, grief therapy, anxiety, depression and relationship issues. I am warm and genuine and I will always respect where you are on your journey.
My hope for you is that you achieve greater self-understanding about the thoughts and emotions that drive your behaviors. I hope to collaborate with you, from session to session, so that we can create ways to help you feel mastery over your life. My approach is...You are the captain of your ship and I hope to be a guide.
