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.

My preferred counseling style is to meet you where you’re at as I understand that everyone’s path is different. My goal would be to help improve your overall mindset while working through the challenges that life may present. My motto is “I’m having a bad day, not a bad life” and hopefully working with me will help you adopt that mindset as well.

I am a mental health counselor(MHC-LP). I graduated from Adelphi University with my master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am fluent in Spanish, and also received a bachelor's degree in Spanish and Translation studies. I have worked with a large variety of clients from pre-teens to adults, and have experience working in both private practices and school settings. My preferred counseling style is to meet you where you’re at as I understand that everyone's struggle is unique, and there is no "one size fits all" approach to therapy. I have experience working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, trauma, grief/bereavement, OCD, sexual abuse, and substance abuse. I like to utilize different therapies such as psychodynamic, CBT, ACT, person centered, and mindfulness to help clients achieve their goals. I often practice culturally sensitive therapy as well, and I consider myself a culturally competent therapist. Cultural differences influence perception by creating lived experiences that teach certain beliefs, values, behaviors, and communication styles. This is why it is very important to meet people where they are at.
