I am a licensed professional counselor in New Jersey who works with adults, adolescents, children, couples, and families. I work to meet each person where they are and be inclusive, accessible, and supportive of all. I have extensive experience with families and children in crisis. I primarily use a person-centered approach to let each person lead the therapeutic process, but include many techniques and approaches to best meet the needs of each person. I have been a client too, so I know therapy can be hard work, but also, can bring profound relief and change, and one of the best things we can do for ourselves.

The potential for self-improvement and positive growth starts with our willingness to open ourselves to new possibilities. Certain life events sometimes lead us to seek professional help and finding the right therapist you can establish a positive rapport can be challenging. One of the unique attributes that clients say about me is the warmth, gentleness and genuineness of our therapeutic process coupled with an inviting approach to wellness. I believe a significant core element of counseling is the relationship that you and I build as we navigate and explore the challenges that limit or prevent you from meeting your personal objectives.

What if you stopped giving fear so much power? Fear tells you to shy away from what you truly want and to censor who you actually are. Over time, hiding and lying can make it hard for you to feel certain about what you want so you wait around for people to tell you what to do. It’s become easy to depend on others to make decisions for you. But you realize that this is not the life you want to lead. You want to trust in yourself and not constantly rely on others for reassurance. You want to be you and I’m here to help you get there.
