Introduction

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 17 years of experience providing therapy to adolescents ages 16+ and adults throughout Western New York. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, stress, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy helping adolescents and young adults build self-esteem, develop their identity, navigate peer relationships, and manage challenges such as bullying, social expectations, and performance anxiety. I also support young adults as they navigate independence, education, careers, and relationships. With adults, I help address relationship concerns, family dynamics, parenting challenges, work-related stress, and balancing personal and professional responsibilities. I encourage clients to establish healthy boundaries, strengthen relationships, and prioritize their emotional well-being. My approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and collaborative. I draw from CBT, ACT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients recognize unhelpful patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and build resilience. I strive to create a compassionate, accepting, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves. My style is supportive and empathetic, with room for humor and encouragement. Together, we can build on your strengths and work toward meaningful change.
