I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over five years of experience providing trauma-informed care and short-term therapy. I specialize in supporting frontline workers, helping professionals, and caregivers who are experiencing burnout, compassion fatigue, vicarious trauma, and work-life stress. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that healing begins in a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood.

I received my masters in Mental Health Counseling from Pace University in 2021. Since this time I have worked with a variety of different clients gaining experience with a plethora of mental health struggles and diverse populations. I have experience in individual counseling, family therapy and facilitating various groups. I am also intensively trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) through Columbia behavioral health and like to provide an eclectic approach when working with clients.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with 14 years of experience working with adolescents, young adults as well as adults with complex medical ailments I bring a deep understanding of social, emotional, and behavioral challenges that can impact your mental health. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, struggling to cope with change, or simply looking for greater balance in your life, I am committed to meeting you where you are and helping you move forward with confidence.

I’ve been helping people for over 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m so proud of you for taking this important step toward caring for yourself. It’s not always easy, and it shows strength and courage.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, addressing a wide range of challenges. My experience includes school settings, college multicultural affairs, outpatient drug and alcohol treatment, and mental health counseling.

I also spent nine years in a hospital setting, working in psychiatric emergency services and on adolescent and adult inpatient units. This gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention and in supporting people through both mild and severe mental health concerns. Today, I continue to work in outpatient mental health, helping clients navigate life’s challenges and build resilience.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we’ll work toward the changes you want to see in your life. I look forward to working with you.
