I have worked within the mental health field as a school psychologist and a licensed mental health professional for almost 30 years. my experience includes, but is not limited to, anxiety, depression, children and adolescents, parenting skills, self-esteem, empowerment, life transitions, and divorce.
I’m a Clinical Social Worker with more than 32 years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and families work through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, family conflict, school stress, and major life transitions. I also specialize in crisis intervention, parenting support, digital wellness, and social media-related concerns. My goal is to offer a safe, supportive space where healing and growth can begin.
I’m an experienced licensed mental health counselor and I believe that meaningful therapy starts with a genuine human connection. The relationship between client and therapist is at the heart of my work and I strive to create a space that feels warm, comfortable, and free of judgment. I bring curiosity, compassion, and humor into the room and I focus on attuning to each client’s unique needs so therapy feels personal, collaborative, and real.
While I aim to be supportive and affirming, I also believe growth often requires gentle challenge. I work to help clients notice patterns, stretch beyond what feels familiar, and engage honestly with themselves—always at a pace that feels respectful and manageable. My approach is integrative and tailored to each person or couple I work with. I’m trained in EMDR and also draw from CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and psychodynamic approaches. I enjoy working with individuals and couples, with areas of focus that include trauma, relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, substance use, self-esteem, and identity. Whether you’re looking to heal, gain insight, or make meaningful change, I’ll walk alongside you with warmth, honesty, and intention.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Stony Brook
Searching for therapists in Stony Brook starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions. As you compare options for Stony Brook therapy or Long Island therapy, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach match what you want to work on. Bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what a first session may look like.
Stony Brook is a smaller market, so nearby in-person options may depend on office location, schedule, and availability across the surrounding Long Island area. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while keeping your search focused on therapists licensed in New York. When reviewing profiles, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. A therapist’s bio can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and experience with concerns like family therapy on Long Island or Stony Brook counseling.
Therapy in Stony Brook 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 you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you find a therapist who fits your needs.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
