Great to meet you!

Are you or your child struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, or challenges navigating life's transitions? You don't have to face these difficulties alone.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in working with children (ages 10+), adolescents, young adults, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral concerns, emotional dysregulation, and relationship challenges. With extensive experience supporting youth and their families, I provide a compassionate, individualized approach that helps clients better understand themselves and develop practical tools for lasting change.

I have specialized training in Bowen Family Systems Theory through Rutgers University and am trained in the Parent HOPE Project, a semi-manualized intervention designed to strengthen parent-child relationships and improve family functioning. I work collaboratively with both individuals and families to identify patterns that may be contributing to distress and to build healthier ways of coping and connecting.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a safe space where clients feel understood, respected, and empowered to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Together, we will uncover the underlying factors contributing to your challenges and develop personalized strategies to help you move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and emotional well-being.

Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, low mood, family conflict, parenting concerns, or feeling stuck in recurring patterns, I am committed to helping you find a path toward healing and growth. I welcome the opportunity to partner with you on your journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

What you can expect from me

I promise to be there for you every step of the way. I encourage you to take the next step and call today. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, low mood, or feeling stuck in negative patterns, I'm here to guide you towards healing and empowerment.
