Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the clients convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*

Biography: "Being empathetic is seeing the world through the eyes of the other, not seeing your world reflected in their eyes". -Carl Rogers Counseling is a process whereby we work together to promote acceptance and change. As a professional in the field for 18 years I have experience in working with individuals facing an array of mental health and substance use issues across many diverse populations. I have helped individuals navigate life issues such as grief and loss, anxiety, stress, trauma, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. I have also facilitated treatment for sexual offenders and perpetrators of domestic violence. I obtained my master's degree in Counselor Education from SUNY Brockport in May 2002. I received my NBCC certification in 2003, and I obtained NY State licensure in 2006. I would describe my therapeutic approach as integrative. I meet individuals where they are and try to gain insight and understanding into their worldview. Person-centered approach is primary, focusing on empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard. Motivational interviewing and strength-based theory take center stage. Cognitive-behavioral theory is integrated as appropriate to help facilitate greater understanding and insight regarding challenges and planning for change. Genuineness is important to me. Please do not expect silence or lack of engagement. I will validate thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, but also challenge incongruencies to help facilitate self-awareness. I am comfortable in all communication platforms, including texts, video chat, phone calls, video conferencing. I have experience in working with clients across all mediums. I look forward to taking the journey with you.

Care Philosophy: Therapeutic approaches are very individualized depending on the needs and goals that have been determined. Generally, a collaborative approach is used so that the therapeutic work to be done is absolutely clear for both therapist and patient. With adults, cognitive behavioral approaches offer ways to rapidly re-frame problems, and identify and alter negative thought patterns that may be producing anxiety. However, CBT techniques are not used alone or necessarily determined to be the best approach. Post modern narrative therapy can be extremely powerful in deconstructing problem saturated narratives, meanings and relationships. The art therapy works well in expressing robust stories, and increases understanding of situations allowing for new meanings to be created. Finally, mindful practice is emphasized with all clients as an important tool for managing the vicissitudes of our lives. Techniques and practice are pointed out constantly in dialogue, body language and art.
