I am dually licensed LCSW, LCADC and a graduate of Rutgers University where I obtained my Masters in Social Work along with specialized training and a certificate in Addictions Counseling. I am a firm believer in building a therapeutic relationship which is based upon providing positive and client centered empathy and care in a nonrestrictive and culturally safe environment. My primary objective is to provide a comfortable and life changing experience through the change process of mental health wellness and/or addictions recovery.

My approach to treatment is collaborative; I believe people are experts on themselves, and my role is to create a healing space that allows you to develop the tools needed to cultivate adequate coping resources. I emphasize building healthy relationships with the self, and others as a path to wellness. My style strikes a balance between providing empathy, and warmth when needed, and accountability and structure when appropriate. I am also committed to treating the whole person, and incorporate social context, and power dynamics into my conceptualization, and interventions. I look forward to our work together.
