Find a therapist in New York — covered by insurance

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with a Master of Social Work degree from Fordham University and extensive experience providing psychotherapy, mental health assessment, and diagnostic evaluation across multiple levels of care. My clinical background includes work within a major hospital system, school-based mental health programs, and outpatient settings, where I have supported adolescents, young adults, and adults facing a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, family conflict, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, stress, and adjustment challenges. My experience in hospital-based mental health has strengthened my ability to conduct comprehensive assessments, develop individualized treatment plans, and help clients gain a clearer understanding of the factors contributing to their struggles.

I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling understood. My goal is to create a supportive, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe exploring their experiences, identifying their strengths, and working toward the life they want to build. Whether you are navigating a difficult season of life or seeking deeper personal growth, I am committed to helping you gain insight, build resilience, and achieve lasting change.

Hello! Here is my short & sweet elevator pitch....well virtual elevator pitch. I have worked primarily with children & adolescents for 6 years in hospital, outpatient and school settings. I have experience with children in active crisis, emotional distress, trauma, homelessness, foster care & those with various learning disabilities. I use humor to get to know my patients, and you can always count on me to crack a joke about myself to lighten the mood.

I am a social worker and a nurse. I use a humanistic and holistic approach to therapy but most importantly I use your strengths as the client to pursue the health that you desire. Within all of us is the desire to be happy and healthy. Life can give us obstacles that keep us from achieving that but together we can find a way to navigate the obstacles and also acquire tools that will help you achieve your own goals. I am so happy you have made this first step.
