Hi, I am a New Jersey Licensed Clinical Therapist with experience treating adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, ADHD and various co-occurring disorders. I specialize in Borderline Personality Disorder. I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, trained in T-CBT, EMDr and other modalities. I am also a Clinical Supervisor. I have been successful in helping individuals overcome phobias, panic attacks, social anxiety, trauma and self-injury. I believe in collaboration with clients--not directives. My style is genuine and empathetic while being solution-focused. I am capable of using different treatment modalities; I realize that everyone's needs and preferences are different. Ultimately, I believe in empowering clients to help themselves. Perhaps you are struggling with serious mental health challenges or, you may simply want to learn how to deal with difficult people or situations. Most of us can benefit from developing emotion regulation and interpersonal skills. It is always my goal to provide my clients with the tools they need to improve their lives. Please note: I am currently licensed to provide services in New Jersey only. If you live in another state I will not be able to provide services. My calendar displays general availability, which is often fluid. If you would like to discuss meeting outside the advertised hours, please message me via the Grow portal. If possible, I will try to accommodate you. I welcome free phone consultations to determine if we are a fit for one another, but they are not required. If you have more questions or are feeling apprehensive kindly reach out and we can set up a quick call.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have used dialectical behavioral therapy since 2017 and became Certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy two years ago. I have found DBT to be helpful in treating various disorders and difficulties, including, personality disorders, depression, and anxiety to name a few. DBT is particularly helpful for individuals who have persistently distorted or inflexible thought patterns and trouble regulating emotions. Clients are given multiple resources to learn from and use in between sessions. DBT is an active therapy which requires collaboration on the part of the client and therapist. With optimal execution there is a high degree of success leading to overall improvement.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have used Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for years. It is the gold standard in treating various depressive and anxiety disorders. CBT is performed during the session, teaching clients alternative ways of thinking, as well as in between sessions. Clients are given resources, and in some cases exposures or other exercises to challenge unhelpful world views that may be causing distress.
Eclectic
It is often necessary to employ various methods at different times. There is no one size fits all approach to treatment. I have found that being flexible and using multiple strategies can be beneficial to treatment and reduce client fatigue. I am well-versed in trauma reduction Christian counseling, mindfulness training, as well as many other evidence-based treatments. I integrate various methods as they are helpful to treatment for a holistic approach.
