Therapists in Piscataway, NJ

You may find yourself ruminating on the past, fixating on the future, succumbing to anxiety and depression, struggling to fortify healthy relationships. You may find yourself internalizing complex traumatic experiences or still coming to terms with who you are and how you see yourself in this world. Regardless of the issue at hand, I’m here to help.

I'm a unique therapist that treats a wide array of mental health disorders. We focus on resolving past and current issues/trauma, finding solutions and eliciting organic change. If we are not solving your problems, I am wasting your time. My practice goes far beyond talk therapy, we do work. We explore childhood, adolescent and other lifetime experiences that impact our psychological functioning. To permanently resolve our disorders we must revisit and resolve these thoughts, feelings and events. I utilize DBT as part of my treatment approach and we engage from the first minute we meet.

I specialize in working with women who are struggling with trauma and PTSD and people who have been impacted by painful and toxic relationships. I help people break free from negative self talk and self sabotage. I work individuals who want to feel seen, safe, and secure and who are looking for a therapist who can provide validation and support. I also help people learn how to feel more relaxed so they can make more intentional choices and gain confidence.

We all want to be genuinely seen, heard and understood. Whether the pain stems from the past, major life changes or simply feeling lost, therapy is a safe place to express your feelings without the fear of judgement. It is an amazing way to partner up and connect with someone who will support you. In these difficult times, it is important to find someone who can hold space for you to help untangle the web of confusion that may exist within. I aim to create a safe, warm and therapeutic atmosphere. You will be met with someone with a genuine desire to understand and who strongly believes that there is always hope.

Welcome! Through a collaborative effort, I work with children, adolescents, adults and their families, to navigate through life stressors, anxiety, depression and peer/family conflict, among other areas of struggle as well. You have taken the important first step of reaching out for help and support. The journey to a happier, healthier life can be lined with tough obstacles, but with the right support, people of all ages can achieve it.

Searching for a therapist is an important step in attempting to improve the quality of one's life with regard to the inevitable problems we all face, such as relationship to oneself, and others, work/career issues, crises, personal goals, or the search for meaning in our lives.

We all have a desire to be heard, to be understood, and to be soothed. We often yearn for more satisfying and loving relationships. In therapy, I will listen carefully to you as we sort through obstacles that may be preventing you from experiencing greater ease and happiness. I will bear witness to your life stories, acknowledge your successes and struggles, and help you to find renewed resilience, acceptance and change. I'm patient and open-minded, and provide an empathic therapy space. I believe true healing occurs when we take care of our whole self in mind, body and spirit.

I listen closely and on multiple levels to the people with whom I work. I want to hear how you think, how you experience the world, and how you feel. I'm fascinated by how psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis, can be thought of as processes of democratic empowerment and how we can create together movement towards freeing your desire and intuition to serve as guides for you. Whatever array of symptoms (anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, trauma) that you struggle with, we will seek to unlock the hold they have on you so that you may gain greater personal freedom, creativity, and clarity around your sense of purpose and destiny.

My professional experience over the last three decades consists of working in a variety of settings including College Counseling & Psychological Service, Emergency Room Crisis Intervention Counselor, Partial Care Programs, Community Mental Health Center, and Counseling Center for Pregnant Teens. For the past 23 years, I have counseled a diverse population of college students who have struggled with PTSD, Social and General Anxiety, Relationships, Depression, Trauma, Grief/loss, Bipolar Disorder, Personality Disorders and Life Transitions providing a collaborative relationship in a safe, open and nonjudgmental atmosphere. ​

I strive to be a person-centered, inclusive therapist who will meet you where you are and walk with you. Together, we will navigate your path, uncover your strengths, and celebrate your victories. You can expect to leave with a sense of empowerment, validation, and confidence. I look forward to working with you.

My therapeutic style is empathetic and solution-oriented: I help you identify specific goals and develop the tools you need to achieve them. To do this, I use Insight-oriented & Cognitive techniques to help you understand the emotional patterns that cause you to behave in ways that are harmful, identify the thoughts that are the result of these emotional patterns, and replacing these vicious cycles with more healthy behavioral patterns. These tools allow you to build the skills you need to feel increased calm, improved mood, and live a more fulfilling and happy live.
