- LMHC
I am licensed in New York with 5 years of professional work experience and work with clients to help them lead more fulfilling lives. Some of the work I do entails helping clients manage stress, anxiety, and depression and developing better relationship skills, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. We also address more deep-seated issues like meaning and purpose and what happiness will truly look like for someone. I treat clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion and I will work with you to tailor your treatment plan to meet your specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
