I have found that providing a warm and nurturing environment has helped my clients explore areas of their lives that they were previously unwilling to look at. The therapeutic relationship that develops between us, can lead to both introspection and healing. I am a licensed psychologist specializing predominantly in the well being of women across a range of issues including eating disorders, relationship struggles, infertility, anxiety, and post-partum depression. I am also interested in helping people through life transitions, such as entering a new relationship or becoming single again, beginning college, entering the "real world", and becoming a mother.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 1997 and in private practice since 2012, I offer individual psychotherapy for adolescents and adults and also provide couples and family therapy. I offer traditional therapy as well as alternative holistic/somatic treatments such as body psychotherapy, EMDR and sandtray therapy. My work is deeply informed by a holistic mind/body/spirit approach to healing and well-being.

I specialize in treating individuals and couples who are struggling to make changes in their lives. I work to create a safe environment in which truly collaborative work can take place. I am warm, empathic and engaged in the therapeutic relationship. I approach personal change as a process that requires both insight and action.

Perhaps you feel like you don't fit in or are struggling to figure out who you are or what is important to you. Or something, either concrete or intangible, isn't working in your life or just feels "off." Perhaps you are sad, anxious, struggling with a loss, infertility, chronic illness, or having difficulty with a family situation or relationship. I provide a compassionate and safe space to explore these challenges, allowing you to focus on what gives your life purpose and meaning. We will work on two levels- gaining insight, while also learning tools and strategies to reduce your pain.

You’re not feeling like yourself and struggling in your relationships. Maybe you've experienced loss or a significant life transition. You'd like to feel more connected to yourself and with those around you, but you've found life to be painful and confusing with unexpected challenges and transitions. If you're feeling disconnected, out of control, anxious, or grieving, you are not alone. If you're ready to lean into change and be curious and compassionate with yourself, therapy can support you in strengthening your relationship with yourself and in building safe, authentic, clarifying, and fulfilling connections with others.

I treat depression, anxiety, relationships, disappointments and losses, parenting, couples, individuals and families. Conflict and distress can stem from many sources-life upheavals, separation, divorce, trauma, death, unexpected disappointments, mourning what we have lost or never had. Therapy is a process of Self discovery-understanding what makes you-you and Your unique personal issues. My role is to help you unlock whatever has or is preventing you from reaching your personal goals and the quality of life you desire. Together we will explore pathways to change or acceptance to free you to move forward..

Are you looking to make a shift? I am licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. I believe therapy can be seen as a process of unpacking. Things often go unsaid, which can manifest into various effects on the body, such as anxiety. Although staying with your emotions can be difficult, it can often be the pathway to healing. My clinical experience has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the impact of our environment and relationships, as well as the positive shifts that can take place when offered supportive and validating resources.

Life can feel overwhelming. When it does, it’s not unusual for individuals to find a counselor who can help them deal with the obstacles life throws! Whether you are struggling in your relationship with yourself, your partner or your family, our goal is to create a safe, trustworthy, and confidential space to process through the difficult emotions and to see your painful experiences in new, life-giving ways. We can help you learn coping skills and specific strategies to help you grow from what you may be going through.

Have you ever thought about what it would it feel like to maximize the meaning and joy in your life? If the answer is yes, then let’s work together to help you discover and meet your life goals. It does not matter how old we are, it is never too late. Life goals can include increasing self-esteem, investing in healthier relationships, decreasing anxiety and depression, career transitions, improving work or school performance, sobriety, and experiencing an overall sense of enhanced well-being.

Connecting with a caring, experienced therapist can unlock change. I can help you to identify patterns that keep you stuck in unsatisfying relationships, behaviors and images of yourself, which can give you more control over your life and help you to reach your full potential. The relationship that you and I will develop can help you to heal and move forward.

Is the weight of being the strong one in your family becoming difficult to manage? To the world, everything looks perfect. But on the inside, everything is not okay. You have checked off all the proverbial boxes of success in life, but you still feel a vast emptiness. It’s hard for you to enjoy your success, feel joy because stress and anxiety keep you up at night. I work with adults to help develop a deeper understanding of how past unresolved family dynamics may play a role in the current struggles you are facing in all of your relationships.

Psychotherapy is a powerful tool for helping people work through difficult life challenges. Whether these challenges are individual - depression, anxiety, under-achieving, grief, lack of personal direction - or problems in important relationships, psychotherapy helps promote healing,self understanding and well-being. A strong, trusting relationship between therapist and the person seeking help is essential for the healing process, and I work hard to facilitate this partnership with you. The first step toward therapy is often the hardest. Please do not hesitate to call or email me for a consultation.

It can happen in any relationship. The day-to-day grind of work, school, family and other responsibilities can cause a loss of connection. What were once minor disagreements can become a source of ever-escalating conflict. Many couples find it difficult to break the cycle and get "unstuck." I can help you improve communication, regain physical intimacy, recover from and affair, understand how past experiences affect present difficulties, manage parenting / step-family challenges, build trust, prevent a divorce and get a good start with premarital counseling.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years experience located in Montclair, New Jersey. I offer a range of therapeutic approaches depending on your needs. Together we will target the issues that bring you into therapy and seek solutions in a timely manner.

If you’ve been feeling discouraged, disconnected, or constantly comparing yourself to others, maybe it’s time to talk to someone. Therapy offers a nonjudgmental space where the priority is building an affirming therapeutic relationship that lets us move at your pace toward your goals. I work with adults of all ages and walks of life who are facing life transitions, struggling with self-esteem, feeling stuck and “going nowhere,” or coping with past trauma. You’ll be able to discover the patterns that show up in your everyday life, identify the tools and wisdom you already possess, and heal the parts of you that need attention.

I firmly believe that life is easier lived when lived in relationship. In relationship, we can receive support, understanding, growth, and acceptance, making difficult life experiences much more bearable. We find and make relationships in so many domains; at home, with friends, in communities, and even with a therapist. That is why I think finding a therapist you feel safe with is so important.

I like to work collaboratively with clients of all ages to help with the following: success at work or school, cultivating satisfying relationships, stress reduction, stress management, fostering a hopeful and optimistic attitude, reducing depression and anxiety, and fostering a healthy relationship with one's body. Together, we will explore what gets in the way of maximizing your potential for success and happiness and come up with strategies to help you to feel better.

Whether you are experiencing a specific challenge or a general sense that your life could be better, therapy can help! I believe in fostering an environment built on warmth, acceptance, and support to help individuals explore life’s challenges and effect change. I work collaboratively with clients to determine where life has gone astray, while building on what is going well and increasing self-awareness and insight. My goal is to empower my clients to lead a more satisfying, authentic life, with an enhanced sense of well-being and purpose.
