I would like to introduce myself. I am a NJ Licensed Psychologist in private practice in Morristown, NJ, and am a member of PSYPACT. I treat women, men, and older teens who struggle with depression, anxiety and poor self esteem. I specialize in life transitions; relationships; dating, marital, separation and divorce. Other than working with families who are considering or are involved with fertility specialists, I only see patients on an individual basis (no couples counseling ).

I work with teens and adults individually and with family members as needed. I also work with couples . I have over twenty five years of experience treating many different kinds of problems including traumatic experiences, eating disorders, depression, anxiety and panic disorders, and relationship issues. My approach to therapy is to individually design a treatment plan that will best meet your specific concerns. This plan is collaboratively created with you. As you share your presenting concerns and history in the beginning stages of therapy, we get to know each other and together set goals for therapy.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I have conducted therapy for more than 20 years in both English and Spanish.

I provide a safe, caring and nonjudgemental environment where clients can explore feelings, eliminate dysfunctional patterns and develop new life skills that can lead to living a life filled with more honesty, peace and joy. I received my BA from Boston College and my MA and EDS in Clinical Counseling Psychology from Seton Hall University.

Times have changed and so has family dynamics. Life has really been challenging and even though Covid restrictions have been loosened you still may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious or depressed as you transition back to the social environment. Perhaps the issues you were having with your spouse or other family members were put on hold during the pandemic or have gotten worse. Maybe you are having difficulty deciding on a plan to return to the office. Whether it's due to marital or family issues, socialization, work/life balance, financial issues or just the transition process... whatever the reason, you are not feeling "normal"

My practice is devoted to Couples , Sex & Relational Therapy. All Couples experience difficulties during marriage or during long term relationships. Helping Couples work to resolve these conflicts, develop trust & reconnect is the most satisfying work that I do. We commonly address issues of trust, sexual issues, pornography, commitment, infidelity, communication, destructive patterns, stress, parenting, illness, trauma & passion. I work with couples to rekindle the spark, passion and desire that they once had and deepen a strong solid connection. Whatever you and your partners unique issues, my goal is to give you the hope and help to achieve the support & love that you both long for.

The decision to reach out for help from a psychologist is often a difficult one. I provide a trusting, caring and safe environment where you can openly discuss any problem or challenge. I will work with you to develop insight and self-awareness, which can facilitate change, honest living and healthier relationships.

People seek therapy because they struggle with depression, anxiety, relationships, work, or faith that is no longer working for them. Expectations of life and relationships are frequently determined by our experiences in our formative years. Therapy provides a place where our stories can be told and understood, and involves examining the past, along with expectations and hopes, so that we can come to see more clearly what changes are necessary to experience the future we desire. As we understand how our past has shaped us and begin to experience something new, we are freer to choose growth and health for ourselves.
