Therapist

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.

Hey there! I hope you will not hang out with me for a long time. I am here to evaluate your challenge and suggest a way out of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and such. Therapy must be short and effective, not a drag.

I offer:

  • Short-term holistic therapy. It means we look at your lifestyle and mainly: what you think, what you believe in, if you are physically active, if you eat junk, drink sodas and alcohol, if you watch junk, and how you dress. Your posture matter as well. All of these are pillars of your success for your mental health.

If you need diagnostic evals for your schools and work:

  • Borderline Personality Disorder evaluations
  • ADHD & Autism evaluations

If you think you are super strange and have nobody to talk to about your UFO abductions and psychic visits- you are at the right place.

I offer clinically rooted and evidence based sessions

  • Support for dissociation , UFO dreams, out-of-body experiences and all that cool staff.
  • ESA psychiatric evaluations for qualified NYC clients

I hold a degree in Advanced Clinical Practice from Columbia University School of Social Work and am a licensed psychotherapist in New York City.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner with extensive experience leading and providing care in community-based mental health programs. I’ve spent many years working with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, work and family stress, and major life transitions.

As both a clinician and a leader, I value creating spaces where people feel seen, respected, and understood, especially those who may have felt overlooked in other systems. I’m particularly passionate about supporting women, professionals in helping roles, caregivers, and people of color who are balancing many responsibilities.

Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and straightforward. I’ll bring clinical expertise, honesty, and compassion to our work together so you don’t have to go through this season of your life alone.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Buffalo

Finding couples therapists in Buffalo starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy and marriage counseling can support communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, parenting disagreements, and major life transitions. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so it can help to look for a licensed marriage and family therapist or a therapist who lists couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bio.

In a mid-size city like Buffalo, the right fit often comes down to both clinical match and logistics. Some couples prefer an in-person office near home, work, or a familiar part of the city, while others use virtual appointments to make scheduling easier for two people. As you compare Buffalo couples counseling options, look at appointment availability, whether each therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a brief consultation. Reading profiles can also show how a therapist structures sessions and works with both partners.

Couples therapy in Buffalo 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 care begins. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who provide couples therapy, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and list available times, so you can review bios, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
