ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in New York

Interventions that I have found most helpful in my professional career as a mental health provider are modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Functional Family Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy.

My professional experience has allowed me to work through challenges such as anxiety, depression, addiction, self image issues, family/marital concerns and traumatic life events.

As a therapist, with over 7 years of experience in social work, the rapport I build with my clients instills a comfortability and confidence that my approach and systems work. I meet clients where they are and allow them to reach their own resolve, with guidance. I help clients transition less from extreme perspectives towards more positive mindsets when internalizing experiences. At Behavioral Health Counseling our therapists provide evidenced-based, goal-oriented treatment to individuals, couples, families, and groups. Treatment and Behavior Plans are individualized to meet each patient’s need.

As a licensed mental health professional, my dedication lies in supporting you to reach your personal goals through a personalized approach. I draw from a diverse range of therapeutic methods, carefully tailored to fit your unique preferences and needs. My areas of focus include aging, health and general anxiety, depression, substance use, self harm, eating disorders, and couples counseling. I understand that facing mental health can be challenging and at times daunting or uncomfortable.
