I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. This experience includes 12 years as the Commissioner of Mental Health in a county in New York. This work included responsibility for mental health, alcoholism, mental retatardation (as it was called at the time), forensic mental health and family court.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience providing compassionate and effective mental health care and psychotherapy in diverse clinical settings.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes people thrive when therapy feels personal, collaborative, and rooted in what truly matters to them. My work centers on helping clients build agency, strengthen resilience, and make meaningful changes in their lives.

I’ve worked in community clinics and LGBTQ‐affirming organizations with clients of all ages. I specialize in working with teens, college students, and adults facing trauma, anxiety, depression, and identity‐related concerns, including self‐esteem, self‐acceptance, and gender dysphoria. I strive to offer a steady, supportive environment where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered to move forward.

Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and direct. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, while also gently challenged to grow. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, not judgmental, not passive, and not surface-level.

Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.

I became a social worker because I believe people are more capable of change than they are often given credit for—they need the right support to get there.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over a decade of experience working with individuals, families, and couples of all ages. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, stress and mood disorders, ADHD, autism, and emotional dysregulation — but I'm always focused on the whole person, not just the diagnosis. I also work closely with parents and caregivers, because some of the most powerful change happens when the people around you understand you better, too.
