I am a Licensed Master Social Worker with deep experience supporting individuals navigating addiction, recovery, stress, life transitions, and the search for greater emotional balance. My clinical style is warm, grounded, and practical. I believe in meeting people with compassion while also helping them build clear boundaries, honest self-reflection, and realistic action steps they can use in daily life.

I bring a unique integrative background to my work. In addition to my clinical training, I am an experienced yoga and mindfulness teacher, an ERYT-500 Yoga Teacher, and a licensed massage therapist. For more than two decades, I have served the Long Island and Five Towns community through my wellness practice, helping individuals build resilience through mind-body awareness, movement, meditation, stress reduction, and healthier daily habits.

I am especially experienced in men’s addiction recovery work and am comfortable supporting clients who are engaged in or curious about 12-Step recovery. My approach draws from motivational interviewing, positive psychology, mindfulness, and holistic wellness principles. When appropriate and meaningful to the client, I am also comfortable incorporating faith-based perspectives to support strength, accountability, resilience, and hope.

I earned my Master of Social Work from Yeshiva University’s Wurzweiler School of Social Work, where I focused my studies on addictions. I offer clients a rare combination of clinical skill, recovery knowledge, mindfulness training, and real-world experience helping people move toward healthier, more peaceful, and more purposeful lives.
