Life has many ups and downs. Whether you are struggling to put yourself first or to break out of unhelpful patterns, coping with a loss or the end of a relationship, or are feeling anxious and overwhelmed, there are times when we all need support to cope with challenges.

As I reflect on my many years of practicing psychotherapy , I have found that what has been the most helpful is the authenticity of the therapeutic relationship. This is where you, the client, will learn to trust and open up about yourself. This process of self reflection will help you identify and understand the deeper parts of you. Whether your problem is self esteem, family issues, or intimacy , understanding yourself in a meaningful way will allow you to be more content in your daily living. Psychotherapy is a place where you can learn to feel better about yourself.

Much of my work has been dedicated to helping families experiencing major life transitions, focusing on healthy co-parenting, relationship challenges, divorce, and more. Not only do I consider myself a ‘safe place’ for all my clients, but I prioritize gender affirmation and have a comprehensive understanding of the complex ways in which the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as other diverse communities, have been impacted.

Do you ever feel like you “should” have everything sorted and things “should” be moving along as planned, but for some reason they are not? You have moments where you feel okay, even some days you feel good, but then even more moments where you feel overwhelmed, anxious and unsure about the future. Do you feel stuck, like you’re not in control of your own story? Are you ready to be more present, to find and cultivate greater levels of joy, peace and balance in a world that seems to be full of uncertainty. Together, I believe we can reach past our old habits and expand our ways of being and experiencing life with courage and grace.

Despite feeling accomplished in their careers, my clients usually experience difficulty asking for help, perfectionism, inability to connect emotionally with loved ones, uncertainty around drinking patterns, irritability, and guilt. I assist men, adult children of alcoholics, couples, and families to develop ways to improve communication, build connection and work through difficult issues in life. If this resonates with you, I can help.

Having relationship problems? Feeling stuck or in a downward spiral? I work in a confidential setting where you find solutions and make changes to live a more satisfying and meaningful life. I work with individuals and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma/recovery, grief, difficult relationships, and major life transitions. I also treat borderline, narcissistic personality and mood disorders. A combination of advanced training in various modalities and experience allows me to custom treatment to your needs and concerns. A strong connection to the therapist is the most important factor in a successful therapy.

Feeling drained, overwhelmed, anxious, lacking motivation and focus. You are not alone! Life can sometimes leave us feeling stressed, not knowing where to turn for help. Whether it is struggles in your interpersonal relationships, job performance, family conflict, traumatic experiences or coping with the state of the world; I am here to support in your wellness journey by providing hope, support and strategies to reach your goals.

Please Note: I am accepting new clients at this time (However, I Do Not Take Medicaid or Medicare). I have long-term and significant experience working with various ethnic demographics, cultures, religions, including LGBTQIA and Polyamorous clientele. I offer compassion, empathy, and understanding to each and every person, and custom-tailor your treatment plan to your individual issues. Moreover, I practice an egalitarian approach meaning you will be respected as an equal partner in our work together. As my client, you can look forward to my undivided attention, flexibility in scheduling, and a warm and welcoming environment.

Do you feel stuck? Disconnected? I believe the potential for happiness and fulfillment in both one's relationship with themselves and others is universal. Through Emotionally Focused Therapy I have been able to help couples/individuals move through negative patterns that often leave one stuck and can lead to anger, resentment and self-criticism. Have you experienced a traumatic event and are looking to heal? I have been trained in EMDR which is a therapy designed to resolve unprocessed traumatic memories. EMDR enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life.

I will assist you in identifying your strengths, and to help you flourish. I appreciate people's complexities, and will help you formulate the best way to move toward your goals. I have experience supporting clients with anxieties, panic, trauma, depression, isolation, divorce, relationship and career issues, and the grief associated with illness or loss. I am an avid LGBTQ supporter and have a deep commitment to human rights and exploring the gender spectrum as part of a healthy journey in life. I also help parents understand, support and accept children who are in the process of questioning their gender.

Sometimes life can be difficult to navigate. Are unhealthy habits getting in the way? Does the map you use to guide your life (and your relationships) need some adjusting or do you realize you want a new path? I can help you figure this out so you can have peace of mind, better management of your emotions, and be the best version of yourself.

I provide individual mental health counseling to adults, adolescents , families and couples. We have within us the means to achieve a more healthy and satisfying cognitive and emotional life - often we just need some guidance in getting there. In counseling, we work together to identify the issues that concern you, help you develop a vision of what is possible, and create and implement a plan for moving forward. Together we learn how you can move forward; together we strive to go there in a non-judgemental, compassionate atmosphere.

The Integrative Therapy Institute of New Jersey (ITI-NJ) is a group practice in clinical and counseling psychology that provides psychotherapy services for individuals, couples, and families. ITI-NJ operates at a number of locations throughout the state of NJ and the great majority of our therapists are in-network with all major insurance plans.

Times of crisis are not only occasions that require mindful problem-solving, but can also be opportunities for personal growth. Psychotherapy should provide a calm and supportive setting to reduce anxiety and stress, increase a sense of confidence and competence, and promote the establishment of more satisfying connections to others. My training encompasses psychodynamic, experiential, cognitive-behavioral, and family systems therapy. I work actively and collaboratively with individuals (from 8 to 85), couples, and families. I also provide neuropsychological evaluations for children and adults experiencing difficulties in personal, academic, or occupational functioning.

I have 25 years experience in psychotherapy with special training in couples work, family work, adoption, adolescents and women's reproductive health challenges, including depression and anxiety in pregnancy, infertility, miscarriage, termination, perinatal loss, postpartum depression and menopause. My training in my dual degrees enables me to focus on the relationship between mind and body.
