ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in New York

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. It is my goal to provide a safe space for my clients to feel supported, respected and challenged. I have been working in this field since 2001 with diverse population's. I have worked with client's with a variety of mental health issues, such as Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and Trauma. Beyond the credentials and education I just want to help people move forward. I believe that everyone wants and deserves to be heard and understood.

I have been in the mental health field for over 20 years working in various capacities. I am here to work with you on finding a more balanced and fulfilled life.

I believe therapy should be tailored to each client individually as it is not a “one size fits all" solution. Whether or not you have a “diagnosis”, therapy is incredibly important and is a space where you get to talk about your everyday stressors or your major traumas. It’s up to you. I am dual licensed in Texas and New York.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I've worked in the mental health field for more than 15 years, in acute inpatient psychiatric care and as a psychiatric liaison consultant, primarily in the emergency room setting with a focus on crisis intervention. Much of my earlier work focused on psychiatric assessment, crisis intervention, and helping individuals and families navigate some of their most difficult moments.

Today, I provide psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and therapy for individuals experiencing a range of mental health concerns. I believe good mental health care begins with feeling heard, respected, and understood. I strive to create a warm, judgment-free environment where you can be honest about what you are experiencing and what you would like to change.

I have had extensive experience with trauma in individuals from adolescence to late adulthood. I believe that trauma looks and feels different to every person. Two people experiencing the same event will have different outlooks and understandings of it. A traumatic event can take many forms. I want to help you pick up on where your thoughts, feelings and behaviors come from, even if you have never experienced “trauma".

I have spent most of my life helping people be the best versions of themselves, in one capacity or another. As a trauma-responsive counselor, I have several years of professional experience working with adults dealing with a variety of mental health issues (e.g., anxiety, depression, addiction, loss, life transitions, relationship issues, etc.). What is most important to my client is most important to me. I strive to help clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to navigate whatever life handles them.
