Mental Health Counselor in New York City, NY

About My Clients

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, anger management, low-self esteem, ADHD, relational difficulties and interpersonal communication issues. I currently work in intensive inpatient and outpatient settings, working populations struggling with self-harm, suicidal ideation, PTSD, and severe depression. I find that a multimodal approach to therapy is an effective way to identify strengths and foster growth within clients.

My Background and Approach

Working with me means having a space where you feel truly heard, understood, and supported. Opening up can be tough , but you don’t have to face your struggles alone. I take a down-to-earth approach, helping you navigate life’s challenges with strength and clarity. Our ultimate goal is empowerment, helping you build resilience and confidence while overcoming whatever obstacles holding you back. Healing is a journey—we’ll take it at your pace, together. If you’re ready for change, I’ll be here to guide you every step of the way. Let’s get started.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that emotional, social, and physical empowerment are essential for building self-confidence and positive self-esteem. Recovery and self-improvement, while challenging, provide valuable opportunities to cultivate strength and resilience. I hold that life’s obstacles can be navigated more effectively by embracing a dialectic approach—balancing acceptance with the drive for change. A deeper understanding of one’s goals and challenges is key to long term success. I am deeply committed to fostering a sense of community, as I believe that meaningful connections and giving back are integral to both individual healing and collective growth. Compassion, resilience, and a holistic approach are the foundation of my work. My work with Gigi’s Playhouse, as well as various volunteer food and clothing drives throughout the New York and Connecticut area have provided me with wonderful opportunities to foster compassionate support throughout my local communities.
