What I love about being a therapist is being able to see a client overcome the struggles that have held them back for so many years in life. With over 20 years experience my background includes extensive work with individuals affected by trauma, depression, anxiety and substance abuse. The most important part of therapy is the connection that you have with your therapist. I pride myself in my ability to connect with my clients in a warm and compassionate way. My style is interactive. Therapy is a collaboration and we work together to solve problems.

Feeling an emptiness or lack of purpose in your life? Do you experience bouts of sadness, anxiety, worry? Are you having difficulty in relationships with your spouse, children? Is your child experiencing behavioral issues, learning problems, executive functioning issues? I am a Licensed Social Worker with 28 years experience working with families, adolescents, and adults. I also have experience as a school social worker and a member of a child study team.

I am a clinical psychologist licensed in New Jersey and New York, and have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I completed my doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Albizu University, which included an APA accredited internship with Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care specializing in adolescent and adult forensic populations; this afforded me the opportunity to gain experience in different treatment modalities as well as forensic assessment and evaluation. I strive to provide compassionate as well as ethically and culturally competent care with at-risk and underserved populations.

My experiences led me to a core belief that informs my work--the human spirit is resilient. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker my integrative approach with clients is focused on meeting individual needs and goals. Through exploration you will come to understand and improve your sense of self. Allow me to assist you to understand the signals of distress and reclaim your life!

Are you or your child struggling with moodiness, emotional reactivity, impulsivity or focus? Do you or your child have difficulty setting goals and consistently achieving them? Do you or your child WANT to do things right, but inevitably mess up? I specialize in helping people like you- people who mean well and want to do good- but somehow just "can't" be who they want to be. It is so painful to feel inadequate inside... and even more painful to watch your child feel that way... My current work as a school counselor and background in addictions has given me a unique perspective on how to help children and teens thrive.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities where confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Footprints began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

All relationships rupture...but not all relationships repair. A couple's ability to safely and effectively repair their ruptures, and heal their pain, is an essential ingredient to any healthy long-term connection. In my office, I meet a great variety of people and relationship types; some are merely dating, while others are already engaged, or have begun the marital journey... and yet others are anywhere from 10-50 years into their marriage. What unites them all is the great human need and desire to feel understood, seen, safe, loved, and held.

Our lives today are hectic and stressful, more so than ever before. Much of the time we are on automatic pilot, running from one activity to the next. What often suffers most are ourselves and our relationships. Tension, worry, anxiety and depression are often a consequence. We have less and less time and energy to invest in our personal relationships, including our significant others and our children. Technology pulls people even further apart. We end up feeling disconnected, even unloved. We often feel powerless to make changes, feeling stuck and often hopeless. Many of us live our lives like this.
