Hi there and welcome!
My priority is supporting clients on their journeys towards personal healing & growth.
In 2010, I received my MSW/LMSW. While doing outpatient clinical work at the NYC non-profit agency JBFCS, I became an LCSW. In 2016, I began to establish my private psychotherapy practice, focusing on young and professional adults presenting with a broad variety of life challenges.
As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I partner with children, teens, and families to provide comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. My practice specializes in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), depression, and OCD. I believe in looking at the whole child, blending evidence-based medical management with therapeutic support to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in life.
What uniquely informs my psychiatric practice is my foundational background in pediatric neurology. This specialized experience allows me to deeply understand the complex intersection between brain development, neurological functioning, and behavioral health. When treating conditions like ADHD or OCD, I look beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the underlying neurological drivers, allowing me to create highly precise, targeted treatment plans that standard approaches might miss.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Binghamton, NY
Searching for therapists in Binghamton starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Binghamton therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy approach match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand what they focus on, how they describe their style, and what a first session may look like.
In a smaller city like Binghamton, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger parts of New York. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. When narrowing your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and the concerns each therapist works with most often.
Therapy in Binghamton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, so you can review bios, compare availability, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
