About Me:
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker and I specialize in addressing mental health needs, including, but not limited to, anxiety and depression. It is important for you to be empowered and equipped to manage emotional or mental stressors that derive from life transitions. My methods in working with individuals include a solution-focused, strengths-based, trauma-informed approach. I believe in highlighting your strengths as one of the ways to help you reach your treatment goals. Emotional distress can sometimes hinder the use of these strengths. My passion is to create a therapeutic environment that will foster hope and encouragement, through compassion and empathy. My goal is to assist you during difficult times while normalizing the process of seeking help. In the words of Winnie-the-Pooh, “Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” You can do this!
Education and Training:
I received a BA degree in Psychology from City College-CUNY and later, MSW degree from Adelphi University. In June 2016, I was licensed as a Licensed Master Social Worker in the State of New York. I have experience assisting individuals with planning, preparing, and executing life goals.
