I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of New York. I earned a both my BA in Psychology and my MA in Mental Health Counseling at Adelphi University. I currently serve the community as a Director of Behavioral Health in a major health system. I have worked with a wide variety of populations across multiple settings including higher education, hospital and private practice. I have been fortunate in my career to serve many specialized populations including neurodivergence, severe and persistent acute mental illness, caregivers, geriatrics, and perinatal clients. I also enjoy working with couples. I do not believe in a one size fits all model. I believe that each individual is unique and use a collaborative approach to counseling to ensure my clients needs are met. I am humbled to be invited to be a part of your therapeutic journey and look forward to sharing in this process together!

Therapist With a Sense of Humor ~ Reach Out Anyway!

Workaholic by choice, dog mama by heart. Seven days a week, fueled by hustle, humor, and Pitbull cuddles. Yes, I chose this life. No, I still don’t understand why.

Email me directly and try not to overthink the subject line. (Seriously, “Hello” or “Just testing if this thing works” are entirely acceptable choices).

Every appointment gets a warm, practical “yes” from me first ~ I confirm we’re the right clinical fit, that I’m licensed to practice magic (or therapy, depending on the day) in your state, and that your insurance and I are on wonderfully polite terms. Every new client starts with a full intake session. But booking should only happen once that verification is sorted and your intake paperwork is complete; otherwise, a standard administrative fee applies as outlined here in my bio, covering onboarding overhead and reserved calendar time.

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts and New York, 25+ years deep. I work with the complex, high-acuity stuff that takes real depth to hold: mood and psychotic disorders, PTSD and DID, the full neurodivergent spectrum (ADHD, OCD, autism), plus PANDAS, tics, and Tourette syndrome.

I share my world with a blind Pitbull ~ resilience in the flesh, navigating a world he can’t see with more confidence than me even after I have three espressos. He’s the heart behind the hustle.

I accept insurance through Headway, which verifies benefits and processes copays automatically. Private pay and sliding scale also available.

Pro-Tip: Confused by your insurance card? Call the number on the back ~ those lovely humans are literally paid to explain your coverage.

The “No-Fly” Zone: 7:00 AM sessions are off the menu.
