Professional statement
I help individuals navigate a variety of difficulties including anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship/family challenges, and stress. I strive to build a trusting relationship where clients can speak openly, better understand their inner experiences, gain insights, and develop awareness of narratives and patterns that may be holding them back.
My practice is rooted in psychodynamic therapy and integrates other techniques, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness, depending on the individual's needs. I am insight-oriented, strengths-focused, collaborative, and client-centered in my approach.
I obtained my Master of Arts degree in Mental Health Counseling from CUNY-Baruch College in 2014 and completed post-graduate training in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy at the PANY Institute affiliated with NYU.
