Do disagreements with your partner escalate quickly, leaving you feeling unheard, criticized, or unappreciated? Are you stuck repeating the same arguments with no resolution? Maybe your partner gets defensive, emotionally reactive, or pulls away, and you feel lonely, unseen, and disconnected. Has intimacy faded, or are you trying to regain trust after betrayal or infidelity? If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Clients say they value the tools and strategies I offer to improve communication, rebuild connection and intimacy along with my compassionate, insightful and practical approach that helps create real lasting change.
I’m an LCSW, a Certified Gottman Couples Educator, and a Certified Infidelity Coach with 18 years of experience helping clients navigate marriage and family concerns, including affair recovery. I am also Certified in Perinatal Mood Disorders, including postpartum depression, supporting new parents during emotional transitions.
I would be honored to help you make positive changes. I offer marriage and family counseling, couples counseling, and individual therapy for relationship issues, including separation and divorce, anxiety and more. In-person and virtual sessions are offered across NJ, including Chester, Flanders, Mendham, and Long Valley. Visit my website to learn more.
