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

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York and have been in practice for over 10 years. I became a therapist because I know firsthand how helpful it can be to have a dedicated time and space to focus on our emotional well-being. Talking to an unbiased party can help us feel supported, heard, and see things from a new perspective. Most importantly, therapy offers a space to explore thoughts, feelings and behaviors without judgment.

I recognize how challenging it can be to find the time and energy to start therapy and to sort through profiles to find the right fit. There are many providers, especially in New York, so it can feel a little daunting! What I will say is that no matter your background and no matter your concerns, I will be invested in you and your goals.

Some of my areas of interest include perinatal and postpartum mental health (I am a parent myself!), LGBTQ+ mental health, relationships (romantic or otherwise), transitions including career/school, anxiety, and depression.

I received my masters in social work from Adelphi University. I worked as a social work director for a number of years previously but I stopped because I really preferred more face to face time with my patients. I got so much more from my time counseling than being in a management position. Over my 22 years as a social worker, I've come across many people with diverse issues and truly have enjoyed all of my experiences as they helped form the person I am, the therapist I am. Much of my experience is working with anxiety, depression, bereavement, couples counseling, life transitions, stress management, cancer and chronic illness counseling, palliative care counseling, caregiver support and community resource and referral.

People always tell me that I'm a good listener. This is my greatest accomplishment and one I'm most proud of because as your therapist I want to HEAR you. I want to join you in your pain or difficulties and help you find your way through them. I may not have experienced what you have specifically gone through or are facing now, but I know how to find my way in to how you are feeling. Building a therapeutic rapport with you will be my first step. Trust needs to build and then most of my work is generally solution focused and cognitive-behavioral techniques. You will see that I am a caring, non-judgmental person. I would love the chance to help see you through your challenges. You've taken the first step!

In an open, empathetic and judgement free space you will learn to look within and truly understand the struggles and symptoms you're facing and the effects they may be having on your body, mind and soul. By utilizing different therapeutic treatments (CBT, DBT, Mindfulness) we can work towards growth and living a full and meaningful life!
