Professional Background
LicensureNew York, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, 015518
Work HistoryI view therapy as a collaborative and transformative process, where the therapist and client work together in a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. I integrate a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to the individual’s unique needs and goals, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address negative thought patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to build emotional regulation and coping skills, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to foster mindfulness and acceptance, and Person-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and the importance of the therapeutic relationship in fostering self-awareness and growth. Additionally, I incorporate Motivational Interviewing to help clients explore their ambivalence, strengthen their intrinsic motivation for change, and guide them toward their personal goals. Through these approaches, I aim to empower clients, helping them develop resilience, gain insight, and ultimately live more fulfilling, balanced lives.
