I am a NJ certified school counselor and worked in the NJ public school system for nearly a decade. Working with children and adolescents and supportingly them academically and emotionally is a passion of mine and fueled my interest in doing the same in a more clinical and therapeutic environment. I believe in a comprehensive approach that includes parental and familial involvement in therapy to further support the child, adolescent, or young adult.
I use evidence-based clinical mental health counseling techniques tailored for issues such as anxiety/depression, substance use and academic challenges. My practice focuses on working with adolescents, teens, adults, and couples/families by addressing anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, life transitions, and school-related issues.
