Great to meet you!

Welcome! I'm Sade a LCSW therapist, passionate about guiding individuals through anxiety and depression using evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. A proud graduate of Fordham University, my expertise extends to children, adolescents, and crisis intervention. Let's embark on a journey towards positive mental well-being together.

A bit about my approach to therapy

In therapy, my approach is laid-back yet straightforward. I create a comfortable space for open dialogue, combining a relaxed atmosphere with direct communication. Together, we'll navigate challenges, fostering a supportive environment for positive change.

What you can expect from our first session

Patients will leave sessions with a newfound sense of empowerment, equipped with practical tools to navigate challenges. They'll gain clarity and a deeper understanding of themselves, fostering positive growth and resilience in their mental well-being.
