Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and direct. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, while also gently challenged to grow. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, not judgmental, not passive, and not surface-level.
I'm a New York-based licensed mental health counselor who works with people going through some of the heaviest parts of life — grief, loss, trauma, chronic pain, and family relationships that feel stuck. I came to private practice after several years in community mental health, where I worked with a wide range of clients dealing with crisis, life transitions, and long-term emotional pain. That experience shaped how I work: I don't rush, I don't minimize, and I don't expect you to arrive with your thoughts organized. I work via telehealth throughout New York, which means wherever you are in the state, we can make this work.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Staten Island
Searching for therapists in Staten Island starts with finding the right fit for the kind of support you want. Therapists may focus on concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Their bio can show whether they use methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Staten Island offers local therapy options across neighborhoods like Stapleton, Great Kills, and Tompkinsville, while virtual appointments can add more flexibility across New York. Some people prefer an office close to home, work, or transit. Others choose virtual sessions to fit care into a busy schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Staten Island can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, enter your insurance details, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
