Intro

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a passion for providing the best quality of services to individuals struggling with a variety of mental health challenges. I received my Master's degree from Pace University in Mental Health Counseling. I have over 20 years of experience working in the field of mental health with adults. I've worked in a variety of settings which include schools, inpatient mental health facilities, community-based programs, hospitals (Emergency Department), and group homes.

How would you describe your approach to care?

I have over 19 years of experience working in the field of mental health with adults. I assist my clients by drawing on their strengths and helping them develop healthy lifestyle habits that set the foundation for overall life stability. Some of my specialty areas are trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, psychosis, and life transitions. I have a passion for providing the best quality of services to individuals struggling with a variety of mental health challenges. One of my greatest strengths is that I have a genuine ability to connect with clients. I work to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

What should be expected in the first session?

During our first session, I will use this time to complete an intake, biopsychosocial, and mental status exam. We will also use this session to get to know each other better and see if we are a good fit or not. I will also explain to you what is expected in therapy and answer any questions you may have about therapy.
