LCSW, 30 years of experience
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New Jersey. I have a doctoral degree from the University of Pennsylvania and have been practicing for several years. I am a dedicated and compassionate mental health therapist who is committed to promoting mental wellness and emotional resilience. I work with my clients to develop a personalized treatment plan so they can reach their goals successfully.
In the first session, we will spend time covering the basics (verifying all information on file is correct), followed by a conversation surrounding the issue you are experiencing, so that problem-solving can start quickly to get you on your way to healing.
My strengths include helping others through dedication, compassion, respect, and a desire to help my clients achieve the agreed upon goals.
In my practice, I help adults experiencing issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress, substance abuse, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. I emphasize a cognitive-behavioral approach and help my clients connect their thoughts, actions and behaviors so they can develop the coping skills to live a happy and healthy life.
Helping clients evaluate their thoughts, emotions and behavior and make connections and adjustments accordingly with the goal of improving their current life.
