Welcome to A Fresh Start! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked in the Behavioral Health field for the past 20 years. My clinical experience includes working with Individuals, groups, and families,
I believe we can overcome challenges and adversities that may interfere with one's personal growth. Our early experiences and culture shape who we are as individuals, how we see ourselves, and how we interact with others.

As a Black, queer, Caribbean/LatinX individual who practices therapy from a non-oppressive and radically authentic lens I draw on over ten years of experience working with women, children and communities of color around topics of equity, sexuality, education, LGBTQ+, and trauma.

I address concerns with family dynamics, infidelity, trauma in relationships, cultural concerns, interracial identities, breaking generational cycles, shifts in desires, sex therapy, communications challenges & non traditional relationships.

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Brooklyn
Finding postpartum therapists in Brooklyn starts with looking for experience in perinatal mental health care. Postpartum concerns can include depression, anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties in postpartum, prenatal depression, maternal mental health therapy, or perinatal support. A PMH-C credential can also signal advanced training in care during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood.
Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right match also needs to fit your schedule, location, and care needs. For new parents, virtual therapy can make it easier to meet with a therapist during unpredictable schedules, infant care, and physical recovery. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, experience as a therapist for new moms, and what sessions may look like before you book.
Therapy in Brooklyn can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for postpartum therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
