I am a clinical therapist licensed in New York and have over 30 years of professional work experience counseling individuals and families. I have experience in helping clients with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family issues, motivation, self-esteem, & decision-making. I am also a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor with vast experience working with substance abuse issues.
My experience has been in mental health agencies and secondary school settings. I provide insight-based therapy and believe that you are the expert of your story. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles. I provide a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment. Together we can identify your goals and what you'd like to change. Taking the first step can be scary, but I applaud you for your courage. I am here to help you take the next steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
