Life has changed beyond expectations. Many of our careers, educational life and values have become unsettled. I am a good fit for highly sensitive people, who amidst this change, are in a life transition such as college disruption, trauma, relationship problems and work issues. The pervasive stress, resulting in depression, confusion, anxiety, OCD, addiction and disruption, will be met with deep listening, reflection and compassion. For those whose minds have been effected by psychedelic drugs, marijuana, childhood trauma or bipolar tendencies, we will work together to create clear, practical strategies for health/recovery.

Have you been feeling stuck? Like you can barely keep your head above water? You are doing it all and somehow it still feels like it’s not good enough. Maybe you find yourself repeating the same patterns and cycles and even though you desperately want to get out, you can’t seem to figure out how. Do many people may see you as the “strong one”, but you are struggling behind the scenes? Possibly using addictive behaviors to cover up the distress. There are probably things under the surface getting in the way of being able to make a change. Often, my clients are highly sensitive people who need support understanding themselves better.

Being an adult is hard. Feeling all your feelings and carrying everyone else's while keeping all the family/work obligation balls in the air can leave you overwhelmed and under-appreciated. Are you struggling with your relationships at home or work or even with yourself? You're in the right place. Using a trauma-sensitive, integrated mind-body approach, you and I will uncover the inner strengths that help to heal wounds and move into a life with more peace and calm. Feel safe enough to tell your whole story and redefine yourself through weekly or Intensive sessions. Every human experience is unique. Your therapy should be too.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Anxious? Depressed? Maybe you’re struggling in your relationship or recently suffered a loss. Whatever you’re going through, therapy can be an incredible resource to help you move forward. As a therapist, my goal is to be your own personal resource- someone that is there to support you wherever you are in your life. Any experience, relationship or conflict might be relevant to what’s happening to you now, and I’m here to help you explore them at a pace that's right for you.

I treat chronic pain using Dr. John Sarno's work on Tension Myoneural Syndrome. TMS is due to unconscious repressed rage and conflicts developed during childhood. I deeply respect the human ability to surpass anger and strive to live life in a fuller capacity. I was trained under Dr. Arlene Feinblatt who had been the primary psychologist for Dr. Sarno since 1973 to do TMS treatment. I work alongside with a TMS physician, Dr. Paul Gwozdz at the Family Practice in Somerset, New Jersey. Together we help patients cope with chronic pain following Dr. Sarno's techniques.

How is it going? Whether we have a difficult work situation, a relationship issue, struggles with life changes, caught in the cycle of addiction, unresolved childhood trauma, or feel just plain stuck, the anxiety and depression that result can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Sometimes we have no idea what is happening, but certain things just seem to trigger panic or reactions we do not fully understand. Other times, finding the motivation to get out of bed in the morning is a major effort. Old and familiar ways of getting though these challenges no longer work. Something must change, but what and how?
