Hey - I'm Mike and as you can see from my photo I like to keep things on the more casual side with my clients. I weave fun, jokes, and genuine questions about your personal life into our care plan. If you're looking for a Psychiatric provider who is all business - I'm probably not the right fit. But if you're looking to work with someone who is down to earth, and willing to go the extra mile to be your true partner and confidant on this journey, I'd love to meet you. As a lifelong New Yorker, I understand the unique pressures, pace, and complexity of life here — and I use that insight to offer care that actually fits your world.
I'm a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, Registered Drama Therapist, and Ph.D. in Organizational Development. My personal and professional work in social and racial justice informs my commitment to addressing the impact of trauma among those who identify as caregivers, protectors and fighters.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I have an extensive history working with individuals with substance, mental health, and other life issues and with diverse cultures, races, ages, and genders. I graduated from Fordham University School of Social Work with an MSW. I currently have an LCSW license, CASAC-Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor. I specialize in Trauma, Anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, Grief, depression, Bipolar, BPD, Substance Abuse disorders, Anger Management and other psychiatric conditions. I am also bilingual English and Spanish and have over 20 yrs of experience in the helping profession.
With a caring and nonjudgmental approach, I work with clients to help them achieve the deep satisfaction and joy missing from their lives. Many circumstances have brought you to the point where anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or frustration have made it difficult for you to live your best life. Together we embark on a journey that helps you to better understand yourself and then implement changes so that you are in charge again.
I also have extensive experience working with children, teens, and families. I can help bring the joy back to parenting your child (whether they are struggling with ADHD, OCD, school phobia or are on the spectrum) we can work together so that you feel empowered to provide the best support necessary
I also offer teletherapy sessions.
