My passion in counseling is to create a relationship built on safety, trust, and hope, where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. I consider it a privilege to be able to walk with someone through their fears and hurts, and help them to experience healing and restoration. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a certified clinical supervisor. Much of my work involves working with a diverse population in a state psychiatric hospital setting I currently provide academic instruction for graduate students at both Rutgers University School of Social Work and Aurora University.

I am a practicing psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young adults and parents in both educational and mental health settings. Having earned a master’s degree in education and a doctorate in psychology, I have a distinct perspective of the whole person within broad contexts. I pride myself on my ability to establish comfortable and trusting relationships.

I specialize in integrating various treatment modalities to help children, adolescents, adults and seniors improve their mental health and well-being. I work collaboratively with my clients to find the approach that best fits their needs. I am also a strong advocate for individuals with all types of “abilities.” I am skilled at working with clients from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

You’re overwhelmed. Despite all you do, you feel unsupported and unfulfilled. You’re overburdened and under-appreciated by your partner. You know you were put on this planet for more than endless laundry folding. Where did you go wrong? You were filled with such hope and abilities a few years ago. Even an invitation to go out with your girlfriends feels like a chore. It’s hard to be present with your family while it feels like your life is slipping away. Your self-help books lie in a heap on your nightstand. Your friends seem to have it all together – Why are you so stuck?

When you realize you're struggling at some point in your life, that awareness indicates an opportunity for growth. Reaching out for assistance is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of your strength. It shows your readiness to address what's needed so you can move through the challenge at hand. Stress, anxiety, past traumas, life transitions, relationship challenges, etc., can knock anyone off balance.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults. My direct work focused on providing counseling services to parents and their children. Services provided included case management, individual therapy, family counseling, marital therapy, and psychoeducation. In addition, my experience lies in working with anxiety, depression, life transitions, anger management, parenting education, children's behavioral issues, and relaxation/mindfulness. I am also certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and I pride myself on consistently attending new trainings and webinars to stay educated and informed.

Mental health is just as important as your physical health. Taking care of you and your family’s overall mental health and well-being is of utmost importance to me. Imagine recognizing your strengths and weaknesses, and gaining a better understanding of how to manage things. Imagine what it would feel like to have a different approach to dealing with issues that would bring a more positive or successful outcome. No matter what you’re dealing with, there is always hope and alternatives.

When experiencing life's many challenges it can be hard to stay motivated and hopeful. I can offer support, encouragement, and guidance while providing practical skills that meet your unique needs. In my practice, I view the client-therapist relationship as one that is collaborative and I utilize a strength-based and solution-focused approach. You will be provided a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings free of judgment while we work together to achieve your goals. I strive for my clients to feel respected, heard, and validated during sessions.
