I would describe my approach to therapy as eclectic and have a “not one size fits all” belief about therapy. I like to utilize different therapies such as psychodynamic, CBT and mindfulness to help clients achieve their goals. 

I have experience working with individuals and couples struggling with mental health issues. My goal is to help clients develop the tools they need to live a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Hello! I graduated with my masters in Mental Health Counseling from Hofstra University. I completed my bachelor’s degree at Alfred University where I studied counseling and experimental psychology. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, life transitions, OCD, relationship difficulties, trauma, and adjustment disorders.

I have worked with clients ranging from age 4 to 70+. During my time in private practice, I have worked extensively with clients from elementary to college-aged who struggle with school-centered anxiety and depression onset by the pandemic. I am trained in CBT, Mindfulness, DBT, ACT, and Person-centered therapy techniques.

My personal approach to therapy is to meet the client where they are and adjust as we work together building their personalized treatment plan. No two clients are the same, so I make sure to cater the techniques used to what each client needs. I strive to not only provide effective coping strategies for my clients, but to also help them understand their experiences.

I am a mental health counselor (MHC-LP). I graduated with my master's in both mental health counseling and school counseling. I have worked with a wide range of clients from children to adults and have experience working in both private practices and school districts. I have knowledge of ABA therapy from previously assisting in early intervention for children on the spectrum. Some of my other expertise include guiding those who struggle with trauma, bereavement, OCD, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationship issues, and many other mental health concerns. I provide a safe and comfortable space for children, teens, and adults to work through their concerns and guide those in healing and developing the proper coping skills needed. I like to work with each client and use different approaches to fit their specific needs because everyone is unique and will require different levels of care.

Hello! I am a Mental Health Counselor-LP. I am from a Caribbean background, an avid advocate for immigrants and those who English isn't their first language. I am also fluent in Haitian Kreyol. My therapeutic approach is based on the needs of the client. I believe that there is not just one therapeutic approach to fit the needs of every client. We are all different in our own unique and beautiful ways. I find that working together with the client collaboratively will help find compatible therapeutic theory to benefit the needs of the client to be met with trust and patience. 

 I have extensive experience in working with children through modalities such as play therapy or role play. I have a passion to help children who are adjusting to new lifestyles, had a traumatic experience, or need help in verbalizing and controlling their emotions and to gain skills to cope with various issues at hand. I also have a great passion to work with women of all backgrounds to gain insight into learning more about themselves, growing their self-esteem, confidence and to achieve lifelong goals. 

 I have worked and volunteered in multiple settings where I have gained insight and skills that allow me to work with an array of cultural backgrounds and belief systems. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can feel free to truly be themselves. My goal is to help you achieve YOUR goal.
