I'm a licensed psychotherapist in PA and NJ, and the founder of Be Here Now Psychotherapy. I'm experienced in helping adult children with narcissistic parents, and those recovering from abusive romantic relationships. I specialize in treating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), using psychodynamic therapy, IFS and TIST. My overarching area of expertise is trauma, complex trauma and PTSD. I hold a certificate in Integrative Somatic Trauma Therapy. I believe healing is a holistic endeavor, and depth psychology can be integrated with somatic work to unite body and mind to help us get to know ourselves on on many levels.
With warmth, compassion and humor, I can help you understand patterns in your life, so that you're empowered to make choices in alignment with your true self. I'm fascinated by relationships, and how our early attachment experiences influence our connection with self and others. Maybe you've felt distance from your own heart, and therapy is a way
to help you to connect with the parts of yourself that need the most love and attention. An element of self-regulation is knowing how to turn inwardly with compassionate inquiry and feel safe while doing so. This is the essence of trauma work. If you want a strong ally, so that you may feel more emboldened on the path of your life, I'm your therapist.

I offer extensive knowledge on narcissism and have experience educating and training clinicians to understand the effects of narcissism on children, adults and romantic partners.
