At Leap of Faith Mental Health Counseling PLLC, we are dedicated to providing compassionate, high-quality care to every client we serve. As the Founder, I intentionally built a team of gifted clinicians committed to helping individuals heal, grow, and transform into healthier versions of themselves.
Life can be difficult, but your wounds do not have to define your future. At Leap of Faith MHC, we believe our clients are resilient and capable of change, and we are honored to support you in rewriting your story. Our mission is to help clients renew their minds, develop healthier coping strategies, and break cycles that no longer serve them.
We take an intentional and individualized approach to therapy, working to identify the root of emotional pain while empowering clients with the tools needed to create lasting change. You’ll never know your full potential until you take a leap of faith.
I hold a Master’s degree in Forensic Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, which informs my commitment to providing thoughtful, ethical, and effective care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am passionate about creating an emotionally safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, feelings, and concerns openly.
I value collaboration and believe therapy is a partnership. My goal is to help you recognize your inner strength, build resilience, and uncover the untapped potential that already exists within you.
I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief, generational trauma, everyday stressors, life transitions, relationship challenges, women’s issues, and self-esteem concerns. Together, we will work toward healing, growth, and creating meaningful change in your life.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your individual needs. I aim to provide you with the tools, coping skills, and guidance needed to support your healing, growth, and personal development.
Together, we will explore patterns, identify challenges, and work toward meaningful and lasting change at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Wherever you are in your journey, you do not have to navigate it alone—we can work through it together in a safe and supportive space.

For the first time I’ve finally found someone I can gel with it. Being a male not many of us like to open up to society but the instant chemistry made me feel safe.

Ariana was safe warm and diligent, there were times in session where I was shy and she made it a wam environment for me to open up, She was able to move at my pace and get to the underlying root of how and why I was feeling what I was feeling. She is always prompt for our sessions and she teaches me coping skills to help me navigate throughout the week. She is wonderful, I look forward to our weekly sessions

The moment I finished speaking with Ariana I felt a sense of calm. She has such a pleasant demeanor and helped me focus on my healing process. I was able to seek out resources with her guidance and I didn’t feel forced to accept any of her suggestions. I am glad that therapist such as her can show their professional side and still feel like I am talking to a cool family member or friend . I can’t wait to speak with her again!
