Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I have been a Licensed Social Worker for 17 years and believe that therapy is a wonderful tool for growth and change. My approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and help you live your best life!

Hi there! I am so glad you are here!

Are you working incredibly hard to manage the non-stop demands of life? You are trying to create positive changes and yet you find yourself feeling stuck in familiar and unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we can work to develop practical tools and collaborate (at your pace) on some deeper rooted exploration; creating long lasting change that gives you a greater sense of ease in your day to day life.

Since completing my Masters of Social Work at Fordham University in 2012 I have had nearly 15 years of professional experience in a variety of community mental health settings. I have developed a passion for supporting young adults through life transitions, working through relationship challenges, and emotion focused work.

Hello! I am so happy to introduce myself to you. I have over 20 years of experience working as a therapist. I love being a therapist because I enjoy meeting new people and getting to know their stories. I’m a firm believer in treating the person in front of me, not the diagnosis or code. I don’t believe in seeing someone as their struggle. I help people cope with their symptoms or challenges and to become the best version of themselves. I use many therapeutic frameworks to accomplish this. I never follow one framework only. That shortchanges the opportunities for improvement to me.

Hello, and welcome. I am truly glad that you have chosen to take this important first step on your journey toward wellness, healing, and contentment. Making the decision to seek support is not always easy. In fact, for many people, the first step can feel like the most challenging one. It often requires vulnerability, honesty, courage, and a willingness to embrace change. Yet despite its difficulty, it is also one of the most powerful and meaningful decisions you can make for yourself.

By taking this step, you are investing in your well-being and demonstrating a commitment to your personal growth. Whether you are facing specific challenges, navigating life transitions, working through difficult emotions, strengthening relationships, or simply seeking a greater sense of balance and fulfillment, you have already begun moving toward positive change.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes people thrive when therapy feels personal, collaborative, and rooted in what truly matters to them. My work centers on helping clients build agency, strengthen resilience, and make meaningful changes in their lives.

I’ve worked in community clinics and LGBTQ‐affirming organizations with clients of all ages. I specialize in working with teens, college students, and adults facing trauma, anxiety, depression, and identity‐related concerns, including self‐esteem, self‐acceptance, and gender dysphoria. I strive to offer a steady, supportive environment where you can feel seen, understood, and empowered to move forward.

I have a particular passion for working with men, especially guys in their 20s and 30s. A lot of the young men I see are dealing with something the research is only now catching up to — an erosion of in-person connection, a sense of drift, and a shortage of spaces where they can actually say what's going on. I'm genuinely excited and motivated by this work because I believe this generation of men needs — and deserves — real support. That said, I also welcome clients navigating anxiety, discouragement, depression, workplace stress, relationship dynamics, and life transitions of all kinds.

I'm a Brooklyn-bred Psychotherapist and earned my LCSW in 2009. I previously worked in the corporate world, and understand pressure, ambition, career transitions, and what it feels like when the thing you've built your identity around stops fitting. Since becoming a therapist, I've worked in hospitals, outpatient clinics, substance abuse treatment, and psych rehab before settling into a private practice where I'm focused on the work I care most about.

People say I'm easy to talk to. Here's a little bit about me. I received my graduate degree from NYU and have completed extensive post-graduate training in the treatment of mental health and addiction disorders. Why work with me? I'm a seasoned clinician who has supervised graduate-level Psychology and Mental Health Counseling students from Universities on Long Island and NYC. I'm passionate about the work we'll do together and am excited to join you on your journey.

Therapy is a collaborative process, and a strong therapeutic relationship is key to meaningful progress and lasting change. My approach is grounded in a strengths-based, client-centered perspective that supports each person’s capacity for growth and self-understanding. I strive to create a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Whether you are navigating life transitions, managing stress, or seeking greater self-awareness, therapy can provide a space for reflection, healing, and meaningful change.

I have a vast background in social work as an NYU graduate. Beginning with early intervention and ABA therapy all throughout Manhattan and growing into the Jewish Board of Child and Family Therapy learning CBT, family, group and couples therapy. Practicing for over 20 years with CBT and IFS modalities as I find them to be the most effective, compassionate and straightforward approach to getting to know the self with a kind lens. Our society wants us to be in resistance to ourselves and we get to take a look at how that impacts us together. There is nothing wrong with your feelings, it is how they were treated that was wrong.

Hi, I’m Nikki — owner of Dragonfly Haven Wellness LCSW PLLC. I’m looking forward to starting our work together.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, earned in 2003. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges in both outpatient and school-based mental health settings.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach is warm and collaborative, while also helping to point out connections to support your growth. I draw from a blend of psychodynamic therapy, relational approaches, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and Encompass co-occurring treatment to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.

I’ve recently completed a certified integrative mental health provider course and somatic technique training to focus more on body-based approaches alongside traditional talk therapy to support healing as a whole-person process.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are and knowing that I am here to work alongside you as you move towards change.
