Maybe you struggle with depression, anxiety, feelings of unhappiness or unfulfillment. Sometimes life’s adversities take the best of us, and leave us lost, feeling numb or trapped in a cycle of self sabotaging behaviors that perpetuate our suffering. Whether it is the sudden rupture of a relationship, abuse, a traumatic loss, a divorce, abandonment, or work related stressors, I view these experiences as opportunities to grow into a better version of the self. I commend you for being brave and contemplating the thought of a better present, leaving past hurt behind, and embracing healing with therapy.

I am a dual licensed clinical social worker and licensed clinical addiction and drug counselor (LCSW and LCADC) with experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families in various care level and treatment environments.

I am passionate in encouraging and empowering clients to learn and grow using various approaches meeting the unique needs of each client to resolve their issues.

Whether you seek individual, couples or family therapy I believe the challenges and struggles we face can be a doorway toward personal growth and the peace of mind that accompanies a deeper understanding of ourselves and others.

Whether you are looking for support with a current issue, wish to work through experiences of the past, or you are feeling stuck and seek more meaning and purpose, we will work together through an integrative approach to assist you in meeting your goals.

Congratulations on taking the bold step to healing and knowing yourself better, which leads to you feeling empowered and having more control over your life! My clinical practice is rooted in trauma-informed care with populations across the lifespan (childhood through adulthood). I possess a wide range of clinical experience, with adults experiencing severe mental health concerns, college students in multiple settings children, adolescents & families in mental health agencies and school settings. Each experience has provided me with a strong counseling skillset.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with almost 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and families. I have worked in Child Welfare and Juvenile Justice settings in NYC and applied those experiences to my work with individuals and families. My approach to therapy is one of openness and compassion. I have extensive experience in addressing trauma-related disorders, anxiety, depression, parent/child relationships, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and many other areas.

My predominant focus is with couples and families, with a focus in neurodivergence, difficult life transitions, infidelity recovery, intimacy issues, blended family matters, family planning, and trauma. With individuals, I work with trauma, anxiety, ASD and ADHD, depression, LGBTQIA issues, and self esteem building. My main goal is to meet clients where they are in the moment. The focus of treatment is to create a safe space in which people can explore and understand their internal parts and systems, and disrupt old relational patterns that leave them feeling stuck and unsatisfied.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just stuck? Do you have difficulty regulating your emotions? I strive to create a healing connection and help you work on your relationship with yourself, others and the world. I help my clients examine their patterns, better understand their life situations, and overcome obstacles to move forward and thrive. I approach the therapeutic space as a team to meet your needs and objectives to empower you to attain your therapy goals. We will work together to enhance your ability to identify and analyze problems, explore solutions, and deepen your interpersonal relationships.

If you are on this page, you have already made a huge step toward healing and self-discovery; I would be delighted to partner with you through this journey. I have experience in family therapy, couples therapy, and individual counseling. I have experience working with children/adolescents and adults. I can help you with parenting/family issues, anxiety, depression, oppositional defiant disorder, parent-child relational problems, and couple relational issues. The type of therapy I provide is highly collaborative, goal-oriented, and time-limited.

I enjoy working with individuals seeking to find their voice as well as work through their experiences. I believe it is important for me to create a safe, judgment-free space for people to share their story. People should be able to process anything that may be impacting them or their relationships such as life transitions or trauma. My ideal client is someone willing to show up for themselves, everyone deserves a space to be heard. I have worked in non-profit for a few years and have experience with most topics.

The goal of therapy is not only to resolve a conflict or find an answer but to make a connection. I believe that the client drives the car of therapy while the therapist is in the passenger seat ensuring the ride is comfortable, the music is right and hazards or incomplete bridges are avoided. The brain and body should be aligned; therapy does just that. There does not always need to be a problem to go to therapy, the same way a car can use an oil change or detail before a long drive. It is hard to deal with emotional issues on your own, but more difficult to address and face them in therapy or even ask for help.

I am a licensed social worker with over 15 years of experience in the field, including 5 years focused on clinical counseling. I hold a degree from Rutgers University School of Social Work and I specialize in working with adults (18+), and couples. I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety and depression, or who are looking to explore and manage topics like trauma, anger management, career issues, academic challenges, family stressors, or relationships and dating. I work to create a supportive, welcoming environment for us to explore your goals and collaboratively help you achieve better life outcomes.

Families are a good source of strength but they can also get stuck in unproductive patterns of behavior and interaction which are challenging to change. I help families break these difficult cycles by working with them to identify goals and establish plans and milestones to achieve them. I apply over 25 years of experience as I empower struggling individuals, couples, and families facing marital issues, divorce, anxiety, depression, and children/adolescents with self-destructive behaviors or ADD/ADHD as well as many other mental health issues. I also specialize in working with diagnoses of oppositional defiant and conduct disorders.

How do we make sense of our stuff? This is a critical question. Life can be challenging and sometimes we can’t understand what we are experiencing and why. Much of our ability to overcome adversity originates from our mindset- how we process our experiences. It is the lens through which we view our reality. Essentially, what contributes to our overall well-being is not necessarily the absence of setbacks but rather how we respond to these experiences. I work with my clients to help them shift their mindset and to find meaning in all of life’s experiences.
