Work History
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in North Carolina. I have over 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, couples, and families. I work with individuals, couples, and families with the goal to alleviate problems with communication, relationship/marriage difficulties, anger outbursts, emotional regulation, sensory processing issues, auditory issues, Misophonia, family stressors, grief, depression, anxiety, parenting and various relational, behavioral, and mental obstacles. I provide individual therapy, family therapy, couples therapy, and consultation with home, school and other clinicians to promote systems collaboration and communication. I have worked as psychotherapist in health care settings, group practice and educational settings for over 20 years. As a Behavior Specialist for the New York City Department of Education, District 75 Citywide Special Education Programs, I worked as a counselor and a certified master trainer in Cornell University’s Therapeutic Crisis Interventions. I also trained in Emotional Literacy Ruler Program with Yale University. I have consulted with school administrators throughout all 5 boroughs in NYC on supporting professionals working with children with autism and other behavioral disorders in a variety of settings using evidence based practices. I have presented at numerous venues including Bank Street College of Education, United Federation of Teachers on Positive Behavior Intervention Supports and Response to Intervention, Crisis Management, Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy for Families. Since moving to NC in 2015, I have been been a provider with Misophonia Provider Network and International Misophonia Researchers Network (IMRN). When the pandemic impacted the world in 2020, I decided to look into teletherapy to help children and families on a virtual platform. Simultaneously, working at home with my husband and 2 young children. I have now decided to expand my practice through the Choosing Therapy Teletherapy to reach more families and children/adolescents in North Carolina during this challenging time for everyone.
