I earned my degree from Fordham University’s School of Social Services in 2025. I have experience working with children and young adults facing a wide range of emotional, social, and family challenges, including anxiety, depression, anger, and grief.

I have a passion for the arts and believe in their unique ability to connect us to our emotions. I incorporate art as a healing tool within my therapeutic approach, helping clients explore and process their feelings in creative ways. I also have a deep love for animals and understand the emotional and spiritual connections we share with them. I am currently pursuing a specialized certificate in Veterinary Social Work, focusing on grief and loss related to pets and animals. My approach to therapy is individualized and client-centered. I strive to create a safe, open space where clients feel heard and supported.

My goal is not only to help clients process their emotions but also to equip them with the tools and skills they can carry with them into early adulthood. I draw from a range of techniques, including play therapy, art-based interventions, and narrative therapy, tailoring each session to meet the unique needs of the client.

I believe that everyone has the ability to achieve their goals, and I am committed to walking alongside my clients every step of the way.
