I work with high-achieving adults who struggle with anxiety, overthinking, trauma, depression, imposter syndrome, military-related stress, and the emotional impact of chronic illness or cancer.
I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), along with CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based approaches to help you build practical, lasting skills, not just temporary relief. The goal isn’t for you to stay in therapy forever, but to feel equipped, empowered, and able to move forward with confidence for years to come.

Do you ever feel like the key to healing lies within you, but it's blocked by societal pressures, stigma, past trauma, or other challenges? I believe everyone can tap into their true selves and find their voice with the right support. In my work, I collaborate with individuals facing the lingering effects of trauma, which can show up in various aspects of life. My counseling background and passion focus on helping clients recover from addiction, unresolved trauma, and difficult childhood experiences.

I believe that incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over, instead of craving control over what you don’t. Life can be difficult and having professional support from an intuitive therapist can make a tremendous difference during these times.

I have extensive experience in counseling individuals ( and couples) with cancer, other life changing medical conditions, and near death experiences.
I approach things differently, blending psychotherapy with intuition. I have extensive training in the treatment of trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as energy psychology. Some fundamental questions in our work together will be: how does fear control your life? what causes you to stay stuck in unhealthy patterns? Digging into these patterns is our launchpad. But tapping into your intuition and your higher self is a game changer. Fear will no longer be in charge of your mind. My passion is to help you connect the dots in your own life and really trust yourself.

HI! I am an LCSW and am licensed in NJ and FL. I have been very successful with working with individual grief therapy, anxiety and depression, OCD, bi-polar disorder and everyday stress management. I can offer life coaching and have experience with health issues and end of life care. I also work with behavioral change. The key is to promote positive change and work on life management skills. Some treatment options are cognitive behavioral therapy, client centered therapy, and brief therapy. I am in the process of receiving a certificate in nutrition as i believe it plays a role in our overall sense of well-being.
