(she/her)
I am a licensed clinical social worker based in New Jersey. I received my MSW from Rutger's University and have been practicing for over 16 years. My experience includes working in a hospital setting, residential settings and outpatient facilities. I work with adults, youths, and families who are dealing with various challenges in their lives such as family conflicts, trauma, and mental health disorders. I utilize various treatment modalities depending on your needs.
In our first session we will discuss some background information and identify the challenges and needs you would like to collaborate on. It is an opportunity for me to get to know you and for you to ask me questions about my experience and treatment approaches.
I have over 16 years of experience working with adults, youths and families who are facing crises, trauma, mental illness and other life challenges. My work experiences have given me a wealth of information and tools needed to help teach clients to develop the skills and insight needed to navigate the challenges they are facing.
I provide mental health counseling and coping strategies for adults and youths who are struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders and historical trauma, transitions and life challenges. My role as a therapist is to equip you with knowledge and tools for improved living and mental wellness. I counsel with compassion and in a non-judgmental supportive manner.

Denise is amazing! I started seeing her during one of the toughest periods of my life and I don't know how I would have navigated without her. She was direct and solution oriented when I needed her to be but soft and humorous as well. She was always considerate of my time and I'm glad to have worked with her.
