Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist based in NJ. I've been a therapist for over 14 years and obtained my Masters in Social Work from New York University. I strive to create a safe, affirming space for clients to explore their challenges while learning to understand themselves more deeply. Our work will also focus on finding practical tools to assist in navigating your particular areas of need and living out a happier, healthier you. I specialize in assisting with mood and/or anxiety challenges, depression, trauma, interpersonal struggles, and other stress-related symptoms.

My approach to therapy

I utilize an individualized treatment approach to support clients towards achieving their goals. I strive to establish a validating, encouraging environment where clients can freely share their thoughts, feelings, and fears without worry of judgement. We will explore ways to identify and mobilize your strengths, clarify challenges and obstacles, better understand you and your tendencies, and find effective tools that resonate with you.

What you can expect from me

In meeting with me, you can expect a safe space where you will be heard and validated. Our sessions will provide an encouraging environment for self-reflection as well as practical tools, creative ideas and psychoeducation to assist towards your goals.
