I love working with people to understand their own patterns of thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships. All of these patterns have a root cause, and have served you in some way at some time—even if they are now proving to be unhelpful or harmful. In our work together, we will come to better understand the problems you face, develop a plan to make a change, and then put that plan into action. I specialize in working with teens and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, BPD, ADHD, patterns of difficulty regulating emotions, and pervasive isolation/interpersonal conflict. I have extensive experience in behavioral modalities such as CBT and DBT, as well psychodynamic and trauma-focused therapy. My approach balances acceptance and validation of the challenges that may bring you to treatment, with the simultaneous need for change. I will pull from various types of therapy, depending on what is most appropriate for you. Our work together will be collaborative and iterative, while also structured and purposeful. Regardless of your particular reasons for seeking a therapist at this time, I will always prioritize your personal goals, identity and values—some of which may very well evolve over time. I hope to connect soon if you feel we may be a good match!

Skeptical? Good! The therapeutic relationship and experience of your counselor should be taken seriously. If you are courageous enough to seek support; do your homework, find a good fit and be cautious of snake oil and shortcuts. You know more about your experience than anyone. Be open, trust your gut. Trailhead. I require a free 15-minute call to ensure we are a good fit. If not, I will provide recommendations or referral to get you to the most helpful resource. Best part of my work. I enjoy working with clients who have been through challenging times and keep fighting the voice that undermines their accomplishments, goals and aspirations. Like a great deal of my colleagues – I find this privileged, difficult and honorable work. I value diversity. My career allowed me to interact with everyone and anyone – I am more interesting and compassionate because of it. Training and Experience. On paper, I am a master's prepared social worker, seasoned as a licensed clinical social worker and have 20 years of experience empowering individuals, professionals and systems in the criminal justice, government, and healthcare sectors. I am a University at Buffalo School of Social Work alum from back in the day. I am a dad and husband. I am passionate, warm, ambiverted, sometimes grumpy, professional. I do not have a brand. Raised on hip hop, straight edge hardcore and skateboarding. I found my education and profession by accident. When I’m down and feel like an imposter, I remember this. The rest I found in pain, love, and my own therapy. Enough about me, let's find what is important to you! Approaches Mindfulness based: most generally, exercises and a practice on awareness of your senses. Simple and radically transforming. This approach is unique, flexible and backed by research and measurable outcomes. It’s accessible, experiential, and highly rewarding. I view this approach as mind hacks to get around the junk in your head and drop back into your body. Trauma informed: incorporating evidenced based practices, common courtesy and acknowledgment that all of us have experienced hurts in some form. It is a way to embody and practice a non-pathologizing approach that honors your past while being grounded in the present. Systems oriented: life in context gives us freedom to understand ourselves and accurately place the hurt of our experiences back where they belong. Internal Family Systems has impacted my practice and personal growth.

Through the stress of everyday life, so many of us have learned to put our needs aside. Often, we ignore them in the service of others, overwhelm, or simply not knowing how to nurture ourselves. I help clients to develop insight around why they may do this and address the root cause of the problem for healing that lasts. It is my honor and privilege to join you on this journey.

College life can be exciting and fulfilling, but also may be daunting and overwhelming at times. Maintaining grades in school, navigating relationships and exploring new experiences may be a lot to do all on your own. My passion lies in helping people adjust to life transitions, and in healing from trauma. Learning what you bring to relationships due to your own upbringing and earlier experiences will help you to be more intentional in your current interactions. I also care about helping people heal what perpetuates their substance use, while working to gain coping skills, and plan for a life of recovery.
The college/university experience is a unique transition point where many individuals face new challenges and often overwhelming situations. In my practice, I provide a collaborative and safe environment, ensuring you are not alone in facing these challenges. Whether you are dealing with emergent anxiety or mood issues, managing complex family dynamics, navigating questions about identity, belonging, or worth, or dealing with the pain of grief, my warm, engaging, and culturally relevant approach works in tandem with psychodynamic and evidence-based strategies to help you to identify tools that allow you to understand and cope with whatever you face. As we work together, I am committed to helping you survive and thrive by helping you know where you currently stand, identify where you desire to go and create actionable steps to get there. I am licensed to conduct telehealth sessions with individuals in Georgia and New York.
