Welcome! I am a licensed psychologist (PsyD) in New Jersey and New York providing psychotherapy to adults ages 18 and older. I enjoy helping clients navigate life's transitions, manage stress, and work through emotional and interpersonal challenges in a supportive, collaborative environment.
My approach is Person-Centered and integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with an emphasis on psychoeducation. I believe that understanding how our brains, emotions, and life experiences shape our thoughts and behaviors empowers us to make meaningful, lasting change. I also use humor when appropriate. Together, we'll build practical skills to help you navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
During your first session, we'll spend time getting to know one another and developing a clear understanding of what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your current concerns, personal history, relationships, health, strengths, and goals so we can identify the factors contributing to your distress and determine the most effective path forward.
My intake process is collaborative and conversational. Together, we'll identify patterns that may no longer be serving you, establish meaningful treatment goals, and create a plan that is tailored to your unique needs and values.
My goal is for you to leave your first session feeling heard, understood, and hopeful about the work we'll do together.
