Biography
I strongly believe that every therapeutic interaction is unique, so I use an eclectic approach, with foundations in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy, to tailor treatment to the specific needs of each individual. I put emphasis on the therapeutic relationship and find it important to provide a safe and comforting environment for all.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 6 years in practice. I attended graduate school at Teachers College Columbia University, where I received an M.A. and M.Ed. in Mental Health Counseling. My education and experience span both psychology and criminal justice fields, as I have always been interested in their intersectionality. In previous roles, I have worked mostly with children, adolescents, and adults of minority populations, with focuses on treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and other stressor-related disorders. I have experience working with many diverse populations and mental health conditions.
