I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard and respected. Then, I work alongside you to help you make sense of what you're experiencing and what you want to change.

I work with adults and adolescents, and I tailor my approach to fit where you are right now, not a template of where you're supposed to be.

Psychologist

Virtual • New Jersey


I believe that long-standing problems do not necessarily require long-term therapy. By utilizing evidence-based treatments and focusing on interventions that create lasting change, my goal is to help clients make meaningful progress as efficiently as possible. Clients often describe me as patient, empathic, and easy to talk to. I work hard to understand your experiences from your perspective so that we can create a treatment plan that is personalized and practical.

Therapy with me is collaborative and active. Rather than simply discussing problems, we focus on developing skills and strategies that you can continue to use long after therapy ends. My goal is not to create dependence on therapy, but to help you become your own therapist by teaching techniques that promote resilience, confidence, and long-term emotional well-being.

Seeking support takes courage, and I honor the strength it takes to begin this process. You may be navigating grief, major life transitions, identity exploration, or recovering from experiences of harm. Perhaps you are a young adult stepping into new responsibilities, a student balancing multiple pressures, or someone carrying the weight of anxiety or depression. You may simply want a space where you feel seen, affirmed, validated, and supported. A place to make sense of your experiences and move toward the life you envision.

That vision inspired me to create H.O.O.D. Counseling & Consulting — Heritage, Origin, and Our Dopeness. I founded H.O.O.D on the belief that healing is rooted in culture, lived experiences, and strength, reminding us that even in hardship, growth is possible. With 10+ years of experience, I offer a holistic, empowering, and culturally responsive approach. Clients describe me as compassionate, grounding, and direct, fostering an environment of trust and change.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Clifton

Finding the right therapist in Clifton, NJ starts with getting clear on what kind of support you need. Therapists in the Clifton area commonly help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, and life transitions. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or psychologist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they're a good match before you commit.

Clifton is home to a range of mental health providers offering both in-person and virtual sessions across neighborhoods like Athenia, Botany Village, and Clifton Park. Practical factors matter too: consider whether a provider's availability fits your schedule, whether they offer virtual visits, and whether their style resonates with you. A brief introductory call can help you feel confident about your choice before booking a full session.

Therapy in northern New Jersey can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Clifton who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
