You are the expert in you, and I am the expert in helping you reach your goals. Let's collaborate.

As a therapist who believes there is not just "one way" to do treatment, I use an integrative approach to helping my patients. I am a practitioner with a unique perspective having a background ranging from business to mental health. Counseling and psychotherapy are 'teamwork' approaches to problem solving that should be as unique as the person seeking help.

I want to help you gain a greater sense of control over difficult thoughts and feelings. Clients often begin therapy requesting concrete tools to walk away with from each session. This is something I offer through through my enhanced cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach, with a dual focus on techniques for altering unhealthy thoughts and behavior, and for improving insight, awareness, and mindfulness. I have a long track record of creating powerful results for my clients.

Your thoughts are racing, stuck on replay. Your inner critic is winning. Life feels meaningless and exhausting. You want to escape reality. Feeling scared of vulnerability and hiding who you really are is wearing on you. Your relationships are draining. It feels like you're carrying around a body bag full of fears and insecurities. Feeling like a prisoner to your past is exhausting, too. Let’s face it: feeling confused, lost, and stuck has gotten old. Fortunately, you've come to the right place. Therapy can help. Life can be hard and feel overwhelming at times, but you don't have to live in pain.

Sometimes in life, we face various problems or setbacks that impede our identity, self-esteem, relationships, and/or aspirations. Through therapy, we can safely and quickly develop ways to achieve your life goals and improve life satisfaction. I work dynamically and collaboratively to explore your inner thoughts and feelings to bring positive changes and meaning to your present life. In conjunction, I utilize specific ways to help you build your inner resources/skills to cope with daily life stressors, relationship problems, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other concerns.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities were confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

Trained in cognitive behavior treatment, I am a compassionate, experienced, and skilled social worker who has held many senior clinical management positions. I am eager to collaborate and work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, relationship issues, employment issues, anger management, and addictions. In a focused and direct manner, we will address immediate concerns and symptoms, as well as deeply explore unresolved childhood issues, emotions, and traumas. Together, with the client, we will exercise coping skills to empower you to take control of their life.

Contacting a therapist can feel awkward and scary. Be assured that your life will improve as a result of therapy. We can work at a pace you feel comfortable with. We all want freedom from our emotional pain. Worries or anxiety, anger or depression, insomnia, relationship conflict or traumatic memories may lead to escape & dependence upon food, substances, experiences and relationships for relief. Escape never leads to peace. Thankfully, we all can learn to find a dependable source of peace in our minds and hearts, no matter the external circumstances. I can help you get there. I have been a therapist for over 25 years.

Congratulations! You've taken the first step in a journey to the life you deserve. The thought of finding a therapist you trust, feel safe and comfortable with can be overwhelming but so is the alternative: living with fear, frustration, uncertainty, and confusion. I'm always amazed at the courage my clients show as they move from a painful existence to one of hope and joy as they gain the tools necessary to create the life they want. Change is Possible!

Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes - Jung. I am a very curious, detail-oriented, and interactive therapist, with an approach that is thoughtful conversational collaboration with the goal of understanding your 'why' and effectively assessing and creating a plan for how to move forward towards the change you are looking for.  In working with me, we will be addressing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how they effect your everyday life, and we will identify the barriers and patterns that you feel don't align with how you want to truly live your life.

I help clients build a positive self esteem and a strong self identity through a secure therapeutic relationship that builds trust, eventual confrontation, and teach them coping skills to take through the rest of their lives. Working with the mind and body for a complete holistic experience is imperative in my practice. Learning how to regulate emotions and not allow symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, Post Traumatic Stress and other emotional issues to take over their lives is a key component to my therapy. My practice is Telehealth, I'm licensed in New Jersey, New York, Montana and Florida.

People often reach out with a range of concerns, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, addiction, eating disorders, career concerns, and the challenges of navigating life transitions. Whatever the specific issue, clients often share a common goal: to gain a deeper understanding of the issues they’re struggling with, to challenge and replace patterns of thought and behavior that are not serving them, and to learn helpful coping skills to manage stressors in healthy and productive ways. Ultimately, my clients frequently aspire to cultivate a life of fulfillment, authenticity, and peace.

My practice is diverse and I am particularly familiar with the legal profession (I worked in this industry for over 30 years), the LGBTQ community, the performing arts community and people in the recovery process.

I have been working in private practice for the last ten years. A common type of client I see is someone who did quite well academically as a student and faces challenges when it comes to the more nebulous and messy arenas of adult life, particularly in careers and relationships. Oftentimes, the questions and choices one faces with no clear roadmap can feel overwhelming and isolating. I specialize in areas such as dating, attachment issues, polyamory, struggling with a break-up/divorce, infidelity, boundary setting with loved ones, job stress and confusion around career path, sexual identity, and generalized anxiety and depression.

Life can throw some curveballs and sometimes we need someone to talk through things with. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, or just feeling a bit stuck, we can work together to get you feeling better. If you're motivated to make a change and willing to put in the effort, reach out and let me help get you where you want to be!
