I've only had one session with Chad so far, but it's the most heard and felt I've ever been in my life. Any doubts that therapy could be beneficial are gone and I'm looking forward to my next session with him.

The only person I’ve been able to talk to since a kid. He’s very understanding and concerned. He tries to help to the best of his abilities. He strives to make sure you’re heard and accepted. He validates feelings. I’d recommend him over and over again

Life presents us with inevitable stressors and obstacles in various forms. The view which we take in interpreting, finding meaning in, and coping with these experiences can be the difference between resiliency and suffering. Let's talk through it. The counseling process may illuminate how to effectively manage the stressor or skillfully overcome the obstacle. It takes courage to change and seek out a more fulfilling life. I am here to support you and highlight your strengths.

I provide Humanistic Therapy. The direction of therapy is empowered by your needs and goals. I'm glad to offer short-term solution-focused counseling or longer-term "deep dives" into your personal human experience. As a mental health counselor, my goal is to offer you an authentic, respectful, compassionate, collaborative, and non-judgmental therapeutic atmosphere so that you can grow in the way that you want to and find the answers you seek.

I also provide couples counseling within the Sound Relationship House model. If you'd like to improve trust and commitment, and learn to understand your partner better, I'm glad to work with you both.

I am a License Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 14 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger management along with conditions of emotional dysregulation.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
