Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. I specialize in supporting adults navigating trauma, life transitions, motherhood, and burnout. My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and grounded in real-life tools to help you feel more balanced and clear. Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your goals.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real-life application. I draw from narrative therapy, CBT, relational therapy, and trauma-informed care to help clients gain clarity and feel more in control of their lives. I also use mindfulness strategies and Gottman Method techniques for couples. Together, we’ll explore what’s working, what’s not, and create a path forward that feels right for you.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and guided. I focus on helping you gain insight, develop practical tools, and make meaningful changes that align with your values. Sessions are tailored to your goals, and we move at a pace that feels right for you. You’ll leave feeling more grounded, empowered, and clear about your next steps.
