What should a new client know about working with you?
I am a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to supporting
individuals in navigating life’s challenges and achieving their fullest
potential. I received my Master's in Social Work from New York
University in 1997 and have returned there for Post-Master's
education. With over 20 years of experience in the field, I specialize
in providing compassionate therapy and counseling services to
individuals, families and couples. I truly enjoy meeting new people
and helping them to set and meet their goals to have a happier,
more peaceful life.
My treatment approach is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and
evidence-based practices. I believe in creating a safe and non-
judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts,
emotions, and experiences freely. Whether you’re facing issues
related to anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or
any other mental health concern, I am here to offer guidance and
support every step of the way.
I am passionate about empowering my clients to discover their
strengths, develop coping skills, and cultivate meaningful
connections in their lives. Through a personalized treatment plan
tailored to your unique needs and goals, we will work together to
foster healing, growth, and resilience.
When I'm not at work what I enjoy doing most is spending time
with my family. We love to travel together, especially taking road
trips. I enjoy reading and am in a book club with a group of friends.
I like sports (especially hockey) and love going to games. The beach is my happy place, and I try to get there as much as I can during the summer.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
