About

I am a Mental Health Counselor licensed in New York and Florida. I see therapy as a place where people come to enter a season of change.  My warm nature and droll humor helps my connect with clients who struggle with self-confidence. I see therapy as a place where motivated people learn how to remain true to themselves in the face of tough situations. I enjoy helping others to explore and articulate personal identities, goals and values that are at once touched by their family history and unique.

I approach therapy with children, and families of color from a unique perspective that prioritizes cultural humility and family connection. As a therapist who comes from an eclectic background I find deep satisfaction in prioritizing the mental health of those who are marginalized.

I believe that the foundation of effective therapy is helping people connect with their own intrinsic motivation to change. I enrich the evidence based modalities (CBT, DBT) by incorporating art and other creative mediums in order to deepen self-expression and insight.
