Learn MoreAbout Me
As a licensed therapist in New York, I bring more than 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through life’s complex challenges. My approach is compassionate and holistic, with specialized expertise in addressing faith, depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, and addiction.
I offer a supportive environment for all clients navigating diverse experiences, including life transitions, relationship dynamics, workplace challenges, and personal growth.
My therapeutic practice focuses on helping individuals develop self-love, improve communication, overcome isolation, and rediscover their life’s purpose.
As an Army veteran and former firefighter, I understand the nuanced struggles across different life stages—from young adults to midlife transitions—and provide tailored support for men’s issues, veterans, first responders, parenting and relationship struggles, caregiver burnout, and those experiencing significant personal challenges.
I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, heal from past experiences, and develop meaningful strategies for personal transformation. Whether you’re dealing with issues of faith, grief, relationship difficulties, or seeking to enhance your overall well-being, I’m here to support your journey with empathy and professional guidance.
