My Approach to Helping

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the State of New York and earned Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and Neuroscience from Syracuse University, where I also earned a Master of Social Work degree. As a licensed clinician and Grief Certified Counselor (GC-C) through the American Academy of Grief Counseling and American Institute of Health Care Professionals, I specialize in providing comprehensive mental health care with a particular focus on issues related to grief, loss, and bereavement. I have additional experience in counseling adults managing chronic illness and have worked in a variety of settings including hospice, medical social work, community mental health clinics, private practice, and clinical research.

More Info About My Practice

For those who are struggling to cope with the experience of loss or perhaps feel overwhelmed by the cognitive, affective, and behavioral manifestations of grief, it is important to know there is hope and healing amidst profound sadness and sorrow. Together, we will formulate an individualized and compassionate care plan to facilitate emotional and spiritual well-being, while learning how to navigate the complex challenges loss may present with grace. Acknowledging how daunting it can be to initiate therapy, I commend you for choosing to embark on your journey toward wellness and welcome you to schedule a consultation.
