Life can be stressful. Some of us have healthy adaptive ways of coping with stress and life events while others do not. I will provide you assistance in dealing with stress, dysphoric moods and unhealthy coping in addition to coaching.

I begin by helping you clarify what you want from therapy and then facilitating your way there as you access your strengths.

As a clinician, my goal is to provide a safe and accepting atmosphere where issues can be explored with empathy. Clients often come to therapy with a need to find hope for their future as well as a path to restoration. I believe that the relationship we form together can be the basis of that path.

You may be struggling through a painful time of life, but you’ve taken an important step by looking for support. In a productive therapeutic relationship, you'll begin to put words to your feelings and find comfort in the presence of a trained professional, you’ll get to know yourself better, and you’ll begin to find relief so that you can get moving again. I work toward that with you by listening carefully, being fully present and curious alongside you, and sharing insights as they emerge. I love my work and find great joy in helping people to feel more fully alive.

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?

I have worked collaboratively and effectively with those individuals addressing their difficulties such as anxiety, depression, interpersonal issues, self-esteem, life transitions and trauma. While working together in a safe space, we will strive to reduce/eliminate negative thoughts and feelings. To achieve this outcome, I utilize a client-centered approach along with a CBT framework. Strengths are emphasized in therapy as an important asset to treatment success. Although individuals going through challenging times tend to seek out therapy, caregivers are often overlooked as those who could benefit from support themselves.

It is not easy being a parent, partner, earner or individual in the fast paced, competitive world of northern NJ and NYC.

We can want to make healthy and effective changes, but sometimes that can be hard to do alone and we need a trusted other that has the expertise to help us untie the knots we are caught in. Many of my clients are successful, but struggle with certain issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting, and professional life challenges.
