Hi, I’m a Indo-Caribbean-American therapist who understands how hard it is to talk about emotions when you’ve been raised to suppress them. Growing up, I was told that feelings weren’t valid—and that mental health struggles were a sign of weakness. Now, I help people unlearn those harmful messages and create space for healing. In my practice, I challenge the stigma around therapy in Caribbean and immigrant communities and offer a space where you don’t have to explain your culture—you can just be. Let’s gaff about what’s going on and explore whether we’re a good fit.

I have been counseling in higher education for nearly thirty years and in private practice for over ten years. Thus, my experience has afforded me the opportunity to work with a variety of individuals and issues: I counsel clients ranging in age from 16 to 75, from various religions, genders, sexual orientations and ethnicities. I am culturally sensitive and respect diversity. Such exposure has aided me in recognizing the uniqueness in all individuals & understanding we are all the authors and pilots of our own life. A majority of individuals who make the decision to receive counseling, will discover that the answer is within if they give themselves time... My vast counseling experience includes clients/students who experience challenges in the following areas (including, but not limited to): Anxiety, sexuality, self-esteem, relationships, grief, family, illness, etc. My theoretical framework is Person Centered/Solution Focused, via talk therapy, mindfulness, meditation, creative play, eclectic approaches... Sometimes you just need someone to talk to, someone to validate what you're thinking and feeling. Being heard can make a world of difference and oftentimes, sharing your concerns, provides you with the insight to address and resolve your challenges. I can be that listening ear, the one who accompanies you on your journey without judgement and with empathy.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and comfortable showing up as themselves. My approach is warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental, and grounded in authenticity. I strive to create a space where clients can be honest about the parts of themselves they may feel embarrassed, overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck with—without fear of criticism or shame. I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, identity exploration, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that no longer feel helpful or sustainable. Many of my clients are insightful and self-aware but find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or repeating cycles they want to better understand and change. My style blends practical skill-building with deeper emotional exploration. I draw from approaches including CBT, DBT, person-centered, existential, and motivational techniques to help clients increase self-awareness, develop healthier coping strategies, improve communication and boundaries, and better understand the underlying experiences shaping their current struggles. I value humor, honesty, curiosity, and creating a therapeutic relationship that feels human, not overly clinical or rigid. As a queer and affirming therapist, I’m especially passionate about creating a supportive environment for LGBTQ+ clients and anyone who has felt misunderstood, pressured to mask parts of themselves, or uncertain about where they fit. Whether you are looking for insight, coping tools, emotional support, or meaningful change, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who graduated from Rutgers School of Social Work. I have over 25 years of experience treating clients from diverse backgrounds and across various generations. I believe in acting as a guide as opposed to a leader and as such I am always open to my clients’ preferences or suggestions regarding how to proceed with treatment. I work in collaboration with them as a means of empowering my clients to adopt a proactive, as opposed to reactive approach to their clinical challenges.

I have always held a deep affection for the field of Human Services since the day my siblings came to me seeking advice for whatever problems they had. That personal experience fueled my pursuit of a career in counseling and therapy. My credentials include a Master's in Human Services, a Licensed Professional Counselor in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and a National Certified Counselor. For over 40 years, I have been blessed with opportunities to serve as a clinician across diverse settings, including Child Welfare, Criminal Justice, Education, the Corporate Sector, and Military Family Life (all branches). I pride myself in being an instrument that provides a genuine, safe space for clients to embrace who they are while welcoming change, operating with the core belief that “everything starts and ends with the individual". **If my availability does not reflect the day or time that is needed, feel free to message me, as my availability sometimes changes due to client rescheduling.

Hi, I’m Chrissy, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 17 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, veterans, and first responders. I work with a diverse range of clients, including adults, caregivers, and members of the LGBTQ+ community, and have dedicated much of my career to serving those who have experienced high levels of stress and trauma in both personal and professional settings. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I specialize in treating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, drawing from modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), interpersonal therapy, and couples counseling. Having worked closely with veterans and first responders throughout my career, I understand the unique challenges they face—including PTSD, moral injury, burnout, and the impact of service on personal relationships. Whether you're navigating a life transition, coping with loss, or seeking to strengthen your relationships, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, supported, and empowered. It’s a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they move toward healing, growth, and greater self-understanding.
