Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings. I use a supportive approach to build a rapport and help the client identify realistic goals based on their needs. We will look at patterns throughout your life to see what things aren’t working for you any longer to make lasting change.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will have time to get to know one another. I will gather information about what brought you to therapy and assist you with identifying goals for treatment. These goals will help guide us on a path of reflection and change. I will meet you where you are at in this process and follow your pace.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe my greatest strengths are being compassionate, showing empathy, and using active listening skills. Hearing what one is saying and truly understanding them, not listening to give a response. I help the client figure things out by looking at patterns and identifying healthier ways to cope and make positive change.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I primarily use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as I find it is helpful in introducing coping skills that are easily adapted into an individuals routine. This can be taught while learning a healthy way to reframe thoughts and gain a more positive perspective in one's life.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness teaches us to live in the present. It reduces depression that results from focusing on the past and anxiety from worrying about the future. There are many techniques that can be taught to adopt this outlook.
