I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.

I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.

Find the right therapist for you

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

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Deer Park

Searching for therapists in Deer Park starts with finding the kind of support that fits what you want to work on. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose training, listed specialties, and approach match your needs. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In a smaller community like Deer Park, the number of nearby in-person therapy offices may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across New York while still helping you find someone licensed to see you. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also show you how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Deer Park can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse therapist profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
