Hello, I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of NY. I have worked in community mental health for five years, in both clinic and primary care medical settings. My clients have presented a wide range of concerns, including: depression, anxiety, grief, substance abuse, anger management, poverty, homelessness, and adjusting to life after incarceration. Before graduate school I was a community organizer addressing issues of social, ecological, and economic concern; my undergraduate degrees are in Community Health and Peace and Justice Studies. I often use a systems perspective to address problems, and I have experience working with trauma related to systemic harm and oppression. An area of special interest to me is the relationship between climate change and mental health. I chose to write my Master’s thesis on how climate change impacts mental health, and I continue to follow current research on the subject. My approach pulls substantially from narrative and feminist therapies, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I strive to be supportive and curious in my role as a counselor. Working in this field means that I learn (and unlearn) every day. I am honored to walk alongside the people who invite me into their lives, and I do my best to offer honesty and compassion in a safe and respectful way.
