Hello, I am a licensed mental health counselor currently licensed in Florida, Idaho, New Jersey, Nevada, Indiana, Wisconsin, Colorado New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Vermont. I have 10+ years of experience with all ages. I love to do parent training for people who struggle with their children regardless of their mental health, neurological, or developmental condition.

I have been in private practice since 2022 and have practiced therapy since 2016. Therapy with me is collaborative, reflective, and rooted in the belief that healing isn't about fixing you, it's about honoring the wisdom of your story and gently unburdening what no longer serves you. My goal is to offer you a space where you feel emotionally safe, empowered, and deeply seen. Too often, we are taught to suppress our emotions and keep going. We may feel that addressing our past and daily challenges are too painful to conquer. I completely understand and agree that taking the steps to heal can seem daunting. I am here to not only support you in the process, but to protect you while doing so. It takes courage, commitment and perseverance to break the chains that may hinder you from being the person you desire. The name of my practice is Truth in Healing, LLC, because I am aware of and acknowledge all it takes to go on this journey of self-healing.

Hello, and welcome. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey with nearly 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and move toward healing. I know that reaching out for support isn't always easy, and my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and accepted. Whether you're coping with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don't have to face it alone. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with survivors of trauma and abuse, helping them process difficult experiences, build resilience, and rediscover their strengths. I've also worked with people facing a wide range of mental health concerns, and one thing I've learned is that every person's story is unique. Because of that, I believe therapy should be personalized, collaborative, and centered around your goals. My approach is compassionate, supportive, and evidence-based. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, I strive to help you better understand yourself, build practical coping skills, and develop the confidence to create meaningful, lasting change. I believe healing happens when people feel safe, empowered, and supported every step of the way.

As a Psychotherapist, I believe that everyone already has the tools they need to be their most productive and successful self. Sometimes people just need the support and encouragement from an outside source to reach their personal "happy place". Every patient has a right to Self-Determination and Self-Awareness. Psychotherapy can help develop insight, coping mechanisms, and social skills to help us build stronger relationships.
