Life can be challenging and extremely overwhelming. Let me help you learn ways to process, navigate, & overcome difficult life emotions, and to begin to enjoy life again. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) as well as a Licensed Clinical Drug and Alcohol Counselor (LCADC) in NJ with a deep passion for bettering the lives of others. I have been in the field of mental health & addictions treatment for 10+ years with experience in working with depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, stress, grief/loss, addiction, and mood disorders. I look forward to helping you grow through what you go through!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief inroductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

I take a person-centered approach to therapy, meeting clients where they are at. I utilize a number of different approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), as well as aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to give the client an opportunity to gain perspective, insight, and awareness of themselves, their relationships, and their overall experiences.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

One of my greatest strengths is my ability to make the client feel comfortable even while conducting sessions virtually. Feeling comfortable gives the client an opportunity to the freedom to explore their deepest thoughts and feelings.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with client of all ages, but especially those that are eager and motivated to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make their goals a reality. Those that often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about what lies ahead.
