Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Mamaroneck, NY covered by United Healthcare

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.

The core of my work has been to help people find solutions that work, to problems that prevent them from moving forward and living satisfying lives and relationships. I help people who feel stuck, to overcome life’s challenges, regain control of their lives and become the managers of their own self. Over the last 17 years I have been working with adults, teenagers and children from different cultures both in the US and overseas. Through my specialization and experience in severe and persistent mental illness I help people tackle emotional and communication difficulties that interfere with their relationships with friends, family

and the workplace. In my clinical work, I use evidence based psychotherapeutic approaches that have been proven effective through time. In a compassionate, and supportive environment I help people deal with a variety of problems like anxiety, trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, personality disorders,

emotional, relationship issues and divorce. I have extensive experience working with veterans, college students, substance abuse and LGBD individuals. In addition to individual therapy I do parent consultations for children and teenagers.

I have been coaching clients in the New York area for the past 24 years as they make positive, life-altering changes via individual, and couples counseling. Through carefully guided exploration, my clients uncover behavioral patterns that keep them from the happiness they desire by learning strategies for managing stress, working through loss, creating loving, productive relationships.

I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space for self-exploration, discovery, and healing. By utilizing unconditional positive acceptance, my goal is to help clients add to their social and emotional knowledge so they can navigate through difficulties in ways that foster self-esteem, well-being, and growth.

Reaching out for help can be challenging and often feels overwhelming. I understand first hand just how dark the path to recovery can seem. But please know, you are not alone! I specialize in working with young adults and adults ages 18+ who suffer from mild-moderate anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, addiction, and life transitions. I utilize a collaborative and individualized approach so my client's always feel heard and understood. No two individuals are ever treated the same!

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.
