Hello! I'm an experienced Psychotherapist (LCSW-R) and also a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC). I have years of experience specializing in working with adults in individual and couples therapy. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, relationship and self-esteem issues. I maintain an online private practice serving those residing in New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut.
I strive to create a safe, judgment-free environment to foster positive therapeutic relationships. I enjoy helping you define your goals, uncover barriers, and identify negative patterns. Then, we can work together to help you establish new patterns that serve you better and enhance your ability to enjoy life and reach your goals.
As a Credentialed Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), I have a greater understanding of the disease of addiction and the destructive patterns that not only impact the person struggling with addiction but also the significant others impacted by this disease. I also work with Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACOA), understanding the specific challenges those who grew up in a home where substances were abused face.
I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice, but also draw upon Internal Family Systems Therapy with a Psychodynamic perspective. I utilize the benefits of Mindfulness along with positive coping skills to help you manage uncomfortable feelings while encouraging positive self-care.
I look forward to speaking with you about the changes you would like to see in your life and would love to help you get there!
