Find a therapist in New York — covered by insurance

I am a Bilingual (English/Spanish) Clinical Social Worker, with over 10 years of experience, and I draw from mindfulness, person-centered, cognitive behavioral techniques. I am also trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.

I believe therapy works best when people feel safe, understood, and respected. I strive to create a warm and supportive space where clients can talk openly about what they are going through without fear of judgment. I approach my work with compassion, curiosity, and genuine care.

I work with children and adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, and life transitions. I also believe that perspective matters—sometimes a difficult day is just that, a day—and I try to bring warmth, mindfulness, and a bit of humor into the process to help keep things grounded and manageable.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with diagnostic privilege. I earned a master's degree from the City University of New York, John Jay College of Criminal Justice in forensic mental health counseling.

Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, based in New York. I know that reaching out for support takes courage, and I'm here to help you feel safe, understood, and supported. I've spent the past eight years working with adults navigating trauma, sexual addiction and related behaviors, anxiety, and depression.

It takes a lot of courage to make positive changes in your life and choosing a therapist can be overwhelming. You need someone who you can trust, who will partner with you to provide an accepting, honest and challenging therapeutic environment so you can build your ‘emotional muscles’ to create better relationships and a more satisfying and joyful life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings including agencies and EAP's in addition to my private practice. Those environments have shown me that while our own histories and circumstances are unique, we all have a common need to feel safe and respected in therapy. It is hard work to look at your life, recognize what you want to change, and then make choices that may feel uncomfortable but are needed to grow and thrive.

I have helped individuals, couples and families who were struggling with anxiety, depression, partner and family issues, trauma, substance abuse and more. I am dedicated to helping my clients tap into their resilience and create new choices so they can get unstuck from negative patterns.

Whether you choose me or another therapist, congratulations on seeking therapy--you made a courageous decision and it will benefit you greatly.
