Introduction

I am a New York State Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work. Originally from Westchester County, NY, I relocated to the Capital Region in 2015. Since 2012, I have dedicated my career to behavioral health, gaining experience across a variety of settings and with diverse clients. I provide both long-term and brief interventions, supporting children, families, and individuals through guidance and compassionate care. In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a Core Adjunct Lecturer at Siena College and chair the Siena College Social Work Advisory Board. I believe that healing is a collaborative process built on trust, honesty, and nonjudgmental support. I work closely with clients to clarify their goals and engage them actively in the therapeutic process, fostering growth and empowering change.
