Thank you for considering me as a part of your wellness journey. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, as well as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. Over the past six years, I have supported individuals navigating challenges such as substance use, anxiety and panic disorders, depression, OCD, and bipolar disorders. I work with both adolescents and adults and am committed to fostering a safe, inclusive therapeutic environment where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered in their healing process.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing. These methods help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, promoting greater emotional balance and overall well-being.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel overwhelming, and those feelings are completely valid. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you feel understood and respected. Healing is possible, and it starts with trust. If you’re considering taking that first step, I encourage you to reach out—I'm here when you're ready.

I am licensed in NJ and PA. I help clients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, OCD, and family trauma. I also support LGBTQIA clients. In our first sessions, we will talk about your challenges in detail and work together to create a plan to help you improve your life. Many of my clients start to feel better within the first month, and their progress continues after that.
