Inevitably we all encounter profound disappointments and trauma in our life-time. The resulting pain which lingers, may cause physical or emotional symptoms such as confusion, excessive anger, fear, anxiety, and/or depression. Such symptoms make achieving one's life's goals difficult. The goal of psychotherapy is to relieve these debilitating symptoms. Working with adult individuals, I create an environment that facilitates an honest and open exchange between patient and therapist. My goal is to identify the source of symptoms and to increase my patient's quality of life by restoring a sense of balance of body and mind.

Are you unhappy, hurt, anxious or angry? Is your life or relationship in a bad place? Everything you tried isn't working? I'm here to help! While on a life journey toward meaning & happiness, sometimes we need to sort through the issues that hold us back or are a heavy weight to carry. Therapy is a place to do that sorting: in a safe & trusting environment, we go through our traveler's bag, keep what's our strengths & passions, resolve the entangled conflicts, and maybe leave behind what no longer serves us within our hearts. I would love to be your guide in this journey. Follow us on Social Media- FB & at HopeAndHealingJourneys

I received my Master of Social Work degree from Rutgers University and my Violence Against Women and Children certification from Rutgers University. I deeply care about helping clients who have experienced traumatic events. Before choosing a career in Social Work, I obtained a degree in Forensic Psychology from John Jay College of Criminal Justice. At an early age, I realized that helping others brings me joy and fulfillment. Seeing a smile on my clients’ faces and learning they are feeling better is the greatest reward for my work.

You seem to have it all together on the outside. You live by the golden rule, working hard, extending compassion and taking care of everyone but yourself. You conditioned yourself to say “I am fine” when you know you are not. You feel stuck in negative cycles and perhaps distract yourself from uncomfortable feelings by over working, shopping or drinking too much. You are constantly in survival mode, feeling stressed, anxious, tired, confused and overwhelmed.

Therapy is like talking to your best friend, only better! I have more than fifteen years of experience working with individuals, couples and families using a whole-person approach tailored to the unique needs of each person. My work rests on the foundation of a honest, caring, nonjudgmental and compassionate therapeutic relationship. I am primarily Trauma Focused Psychodynamic. In my work, I consider physical, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing utilizing mindfulness, religious/spiritual beliefs, CBT, medication, EFT and EMDR, as appropriate.
