Sometimes in life, we become so focused on the finish line that we fail to find joy in the journey." - (Dieter F. Uchtdorf) Do you feel your mind getting in the way of reaching your fullest potential? I work towards creating a warm, positive environment in which clients can embrace the journey to change and healing. I have extensive experience working in Substance Abuse and Eating Disorder programs. I empower my clients to find courage within themselves to make positive changes in their lives.
I also specialize in co-occurring disorders such as anxiety and depression. I use a person-centered, individualized approach, since I do not feel that cookie-cutter treatment is effective. I utilize modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered therapy, and Mindfulness/Acceptance strategies. I am licensed in NJ, FL, and CT.
