Cancer Therapists in Red Bank, NJ
As a Creative Arts Therapist I work toward fostering an atmosphere of relaxation, while inspiring communication through creativity. I work within numerous settings and populations including Monmouth Medical Center's In-patient Behavioral Health Hospital, servicing children and adults, MMC's Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorder Outreach Program, Bristol Myers-Squibb Children's Hospital at Robert Wood Johnson, New Brunswick, and The PALS program at the YWCA Union County servicing victims of domestic violence. Working within these populations affords me the opportunity to engage with the patient as well as the whole family to allow for a comprehensive therapeutic approach.

All of us experience moments when life presents a challenge—a health issue, a career transition, a move, a loss, or a shift that requires us to create a new normal. Sometimes the work involves looking back at our past and understanding how those experiences shape who we are today. Whether we are adjusting to new circumstances or exploring old ones, the process can feel overwhelming. Support can make all the difference.

I can rattle on about my 30 plus years of experience and training but it’s not what drives my love for the work and my belief in the human capacity for healing and growth. I’ve walked diverse paths in my career, all of which have consistently revealed the resilience of the spirit even amidst the darkest places. Love is what brings the resilience forward, even if you can’t see it or feel it yet, it persists. My mission is to help you to uncover it - your heart - by pulling back the shroud caused by fear, suffering and pain. It’s your birthright - to free your heart from suffering. If you take nothing else from this page- take this!

Life shapes us all. I help adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, life's frustrations and their limiting beliefs that keep them stuck, to gain meaning and understanding of their life stories by learning to gain clarity of how life shaped them, to shift their internal beliefs and life so they can live from their essence and experience healing, joy, fulfillment and peace. My ideal client is he or she who has courage to go within to do the internal emotional healing work, is self-motivated, ready to make lasting change and is active in the therapy process.

In my professional capacity as a licensed social worker and psychotherapist, I have had the honor to accompany persons of all ages and backgrounds in their quest for insight and self-discovery. I believe that trust and vulnerability are at the core of the client-therapist relationship and that the client’s innate wisdom and judgment rule supreme. With that in mind, strategies and interventions in achieving clearly defined yet dynamic goals arise through a process of critical inquiry. In this process, I have witnessed individuals redefine and recreate who they are as they move toward greater lucidity and self-fulfillment.

You feel like something is holding you back...whether it's at work, in your relationship, as a parent, or just in where you thought your life would be by now. For the most part your life, career, or marriage is ok;but you envision better. You want to feel the depth and intimacy you once felt with your partner and stop the ongoing arguments. You want to stop holding back at work; or feeling inadequate as a parent because you just don't know what to do next about your child's behavior. You are stressed and overwhelmed, feeling like no one truly gets it. Your relationships are well enough, but you are missing depth, connection and meaning. Perhaps you are waiting for motivation to strike you? As you wait, the days, months, and years fly by and you remain stuck, vowing that next week...month...year...or time, things will be different. Why wait? You deserve NOW. You want to thrive in your life and change the way things feel at this moment. You want to stop repeating the same patterns, arguments, and situations that keep you unhappy. Perhaps you can do it alone, but what if nothing changes? There is a better solution. Seeking outside support is a sign of strength and readiness for change

Are you troubled & stressed in a relationship, but don't know how to change things? Do you say "yes" when you want to say "no"? Are you covering up your pain with destructive behaviors? Do you judge yourself harshly & feel you are just never 'good enough'? Negative thoughts, anxiety & low self esteem can be an enormous burden, making it a crushing chore to just get through your day. They effect your relationships, your ability to work and can lead to substance abuse, over eating and other behaviors that can pull you in to a downward spiral that is hard to break free from.

We experience life transitions and periods of loss and grief throughout our lives. I am particularly interested helping you with the issues that we experience as we grow older and also in helping families cope with those issues that we face as our loved ones age. Caring for loved ones with aging disorders such as dementia can create chronic stress, anxiety, depression and burnout for even the most capable. You may be feeling unable to care for yourself, your own family and career. If you are feeling depleted and overwhelmed we can work collaboratively to discover a story of change, resilience, and hope.
