I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I believe therapy is not only about managing symptoms but also about gaining insight, building resilience, and creating meaningful, lasting change. I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Hofstra University and have experience working with individuals, couples, and families in both outpatient and community mental health settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, stress, grief, care-giving burnout, LGBTQ+, substance abuse, self-esteem concerns, and family conflict. I'll help you explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck while developing practical tools to help you move toward the life and relationships you want and absolutely deserve. I understand that culture, family expectations, identity, and generational experiences can significantly shape mental health and relationships as well. Whether these topics are central to your therapy or simply part of your story, I strive to provide culturally responsive care that honors your unique experiences. I believe every client is unique, so treatment is tailored to your individual goals rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, I look forward to working alongside you and helping you build greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.
I will hear your story and help you explore and plan to accomplish your goals. I am easy-going, friendly, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I enjoy working with individuals moving through difficult life transitions where they may feel lost. We can find the answers together. We will explore possibilities that will enable you to think more creatively about solutions to current life obstacles, allowing you to live more fully in the present and with greater joy and fulfillment.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New York
Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
