I am a New Jersey Licensed Clinical Social Worker (also known as a "psychotherapist") with ten years experience helping clients move towards emotional and mental health and well-being. Working with adults and older adults in individual therapy, I use an integrative approach designed to suit the specific needs of each of my clients. My holistic, person-centered approach to therapy has helped numerous clients successfully navigate and overcome issues including, but not limited to:
-
Depression
-
Anxiety
-
Stress
-
Relationship issues
-
Work-life imbalances
-
Eating Disorders/emotional eating
-
Life transition issues
-
LGBTQ+ issues
-
Chronic or terminal health issues
-
Grief and loss (miscarriage, pregnancy, death of a loved one, and anticipatory grief)

Spiritual Concerns
I believe that by incorporating the right therapeutic approach, a holistic view of overall wellness, and genuine support and empathy, I empower my clients to succeed on each of their own personal paths to emotional peace and wellness.
