ABOUT
ME

My Educational Journey

My passion for helping others began with a strong educational foundation. I earned my Masters in Social Work from Touro College in NYC, where I had the privilege of learning from esteemed professors who ignited my enthusiasm for this field. I was honored to be named valedictorian and graduated with the highest honors, a testament to my dedication to this profession.

 

Diverse Experience

My professional journey has been diverse, allowing me to develop a holistic understanding of mental health. I've held an adjunct faculty position at Touro, where I organized continued education programs for healthcare professionals. Simultaneously, I've been a clinician at a non-profit agency, further enriching my expertise in serving individuals from various backgrounds.

​

My Therapeutic Approach

In my therapy sessions, I firmly believe in meeting you where you are. With genuine empathy and validation, I guide you in addressing the challenges that brought you to seek help. Your sessions are entirely tailored to your specific needs, focusing on realistic goals and objectives. My warm and compassionate nature, coupled with a nurturing approach, creates a safe and welcoming space where you can truly be yourself. Together, we uncover your strengths and nurture them, alleviating painful symptoms and empowering you with improved coping skills.

I understand that finding the right therapist is a crucial step in your healing journey. That's why I offer a complimentary phone consultation. Feel free to ask any preliminary questions you may have - it's essential that you feel a connection. Trust your instincts; if you feel comfortable, take the next step and schedule a session. I'm here to support you.

 

Looking Forward to Our Journey

Ultimately, my goal is to help you find the therapist you resonate with. I am eager to meet you, understand your unique story, and embark on this transformative journey together. Your well-being is my priority, and I'm dedicated to guiding you towards a happier and more fulfilling life.
