My communication style
I'm here to listen, to be your sounding board, and to help guide you toward increasing self-awareness and discovering better, more effective ways of dealing with the ups and downs of life.
My journey to mental healthcare
As a child immigrant, I encountered social workers who welcomed me and my family to a new country, culture, and life. I was in awe of these people whose job was to ensure we felt welcome and cared for in our new home. I was immediately attracted to a profession focused on making the world a better place. I earned my Master?s in Social Work from Yeshiva University and have worked with nonprofit community agencies. Over time, I transitioned to more clinical work and found myself drawn to working with individuals. I feel humbled and honored to have clients who share their life stories with me and carry a tremendous responsibility to help them heal their wounds. I believe we all deserve to feel happy and free from suffering.
My goals for you
Goal setting is a team effort. You have to commit to trying something new. For you to succeed, you have to believe in the possibility of improvement. My role is to be your cheerleader, your coach, and your support.
