Great to meet you!

Do you want to build a better life, let go of things that no longer help you, & finally be at peace? You don't have to suffer in silence. There are many ways to get out of a situation you are stuck in, and I can help, drawing from 10+ years of experience helping people 18 to 92 to overcome challenges, see different options to make wise decisions, create meaning, balance, and mindfulness. Teaching social work at Rutgers University for 8 years, I bring you the latest evidence research & practice.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I provide integrated care that incorporates cognitive therapy, mindfulness-based stress reduction, solution-focused, and trauma-sensitive somatic work for individuals to help them manage overwhelming emotions, conquer anxiety, and resolve PTSD symptoms. I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy to facilitate powerful resolution of anxiety and trauma symptoms within 5 sessions.

What you can expect from our first session

Once upon a time, I needed someone to help me deal with trauma, life, and overwhelming emotions. I got help. Now, it is my mission to help as many people as possible to heal. We’ll work together on coping, overcoming unwanted emotions, and eliminating trauma in our families and our community. It’s time to grow, develop new skills, and apply them in everyday life.
