My goal is to empower you to identify and overcome personal obstacles that are preventing you from getting the most out of life. I strive to create a warm, empathetic, understanding and, most importantly, collaborative environment. Working together, we will tackle life’s challenges—whether they may be problems of anxiety, self-esteem, or unhealthy patterns of behavior. I specialize in treating adults with anxiety, OCD, phobias, eating disorders, and life transitions. I also work with transgender individuals. My background is in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and my hope is to help you live a more meaningful life.

Our clinicians work on a wide range of issues with a wide range of therapeutic techniques, self-care tools and clinical styles.

We believe in affirming & celebrating all people for who you truly are.

I have over 12 years experience treating adolescents and adults from diverse cultural backgrounds. I believe therapy should be a collaborative partnership in which we work together to restore healthy functioning. We will identify triggers and destructive behavior patterns that contribute to emotional stress. We can then work together to develop constructive coping skills tailored to your specific clinical needs. My counseling style is one of compassion and support. I strive to create a comfortable environment in which clients feel free to express who they are and how they feel without fear of judgement or rejection.

Have you been feeling stuck with your negative emotions? Do you still feel sadness and emotional pain after years of treatment? Does it seem that no one understands your problems and that you feel “alone”? There is no simple formula to solve unwanted and unresolved emotions. I work with chronic anxiety and trauma, including generational trauma. In my practice, I emphasize the mind and body connection and incorporate Eastern philosophy to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.

Are you feeling stuck in a difficult circumstance or a relational conflict? Do you find yourself limited by fear, anxiety, lack of motivation or clarity? Are you discerning whether or not to stay in a current relationship? This can be a painful space. I believe we all have access to deep, still waters within us that can guide and direct us to deeper peace and clarity. Sometimes, we struggle to access that "knowing part" of us. I have 20 years of helping guide men, women, couples, adolescents and families gain skills and find deeper, more peaceful waters in seasons of grief, anxiety, depression, divorce & couple's conflict.

Attending therapy can be daunting and connecting with the right therapist can help soften any initial reservations. I offer a welcoming, nonjudgmental space that will allow you to experience therapy in the most authentic way. Inevitably, by living, we face challenges that can inhibit how we manage our daily lives. These challenges, like stress related to family dynamics, work, romantic relationships, life transitions, and loss can disrupt the connection we have to our inner selves. My goal is to help you restore and realign the parts of you that may have been wounded along the way.

I am a Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC) in New Jersey. I am also a licensed school counselor as well as Student Assistance Counselor in the State of New Jersey. As a mental health professional, I have worked with clients from a variety of ethnic, cultural and social economical backgrounds. I am experienced in both individual and group counseling.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! As a counselor, I feel it is imperative to create an environment which enables clients to truly express what their thoughts and feelings are; a person must feel comfortable in their therapeutic setting. Counseling does not need to be a fear-provoking or anxiety-inducing experience, rather it should be a place a client looks forward going to in order to become the best version of themselves possible. I enjoy using various therapeutic modalities with clients, including Cognitive Behavior, Mindfulness, Emotion Focused, Solution Focused, and Psychoanalytic Therapies, among others.

I have been in practice for 37 years. During that time I have been dedicated to providing psychological services to an adult, adolescent, child population within inidividual and couples modalities. I specialize in the psychological treatment of eating disorders,anxiety and related conditions, mood states, depression, women's concerns, trauma, relationship and marital experiences, Asperger's syndrome. I understand that psychological and emotional issues are most effectively addressed and treated through empathic listening, attunement, support, and the fostering of insight and self-empowerment.

We all accrue wounds in the course of living. Finding the right therapist is the best way to find help to heal wounds. To support those who seek change, particularly in relationships, I take an authentic, non-judgmental approach that is free of trend-driven techniques. By providing a safe and respectful space that values and nourishes the healing process, clients can expect non-pathologized care. Given that conflict comes in many forms, my therapeutic approach is equally personalized to each individual's needs.

You will be in a space where you can feel safe, not judged and free to explore your issues/conflicts in your most intimate relationships, friendships and work. You can be freed of the issues or traumas from the past that have held you back. I work in both short and long term therapy depending on your needs. Perhaps you want help to free yourself of old habits and repetitive patterns that have been hurtful in the past and to recognize toxic relationships. I also help couples to improve communication and to understand one another in order to create or improve a loving bond. I am licensed as a Clinical Social Worker in N.Y. and N.J.

Look for the strength. In you. In your child. I can help. I am a Clinical and School Psychologist with extensive experience evaluating, diagnosing, and working with children, adolescents, and adults with a variety of issues, including: ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, complex learning difficulties, social-emotional & behavioral difficulties, mood and anxiety disorders, and medical/neurological conditions. My strength-based approach to therapy and evaluations combines comprehensive assessment with evidenced-based interventions, and actionable recommendations. I offer individual and group therapy for children and adolescents, and individual therapy for adults.

When it comes to therapy, I believe that one size does not fit all. I incorporate a variety of treatment approaches that are tailored to each client's unique needs and experiences. We work collaboratively on goals that best reflect your personality, strengths and challenges. Research has shown that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of successful therapy. I strive to provide a warm, safe and non-judgmental space where clients feel both seen and heard. I have particular expertise in helping clients to navigate life with chronic illness, from adjusting to a new diagnosis to grieving losses to caring for a loved one.

Study after study indicates that what "works" in therapy is the quality of the relationship between the client and therapist. I create a strong relationship in which my clients feel safe and understood while sharing and exploring their lives. I conceptualize from a psychodynamic orientation and contour treatment to the specific needs of the individual.

I work with my clients using a variety of approaches in a collaborative effort to help them reach their defined goals. Together we focus on wellness, self-responsibility and empowerment. For over 35 years I have helped individuals who are struggling with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, marital conflict and any other issues contributing to distress. Because I have been in private practice for decades, I have had the benefit of having past clients keeping me informed of their progress, sharing their joys and triumphs through the years.
