Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping individuals navigate the complexities of their mental health. I received my MA in Counseling from Webster University. I have extensive training and success in treating anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD for all ages. I am here to walk together with you on your healing journey and offer perspectives and techniques that will improve your everyday life.
Feeling overwhelmed? Believe you aren't good enough? Dealing with grief/loss? Struggling to adjust to life challenges (health problems, career, college, infertility)? Experiencing relationship difficulties? Want to learn how to effectively communicate with others? I'm eager to hear your story. I'll encourage you to express your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. From there, we will work together to identify problematic beliefs and behaviors impacting different aspects of your life with the goal of gaining a new perspective and using your strengths to create a healthy lifestyle.
My clinical training was in adult psychiatry at Columbia University Medical Center. I earned a Masters degree in Social Work from Florida International University and a PhD in Social Welfare from the City University of New York Graduate Center.
I specialize in working with adults who feel excluded in one way or another either at work, in their family, community, or society at large--immigrants, people of color, those with disabilities, LGBTQ+, etc. Even if you don't identify yourself in these ways, being treated as if you don't belong can impact parts of your life and I want to provide you support.
I generally assist adults with depression, anxiety, health problems, relationship issues, grief/loss, work stress, school issues, infertility, and parenting. My approach is warm, interactive and non-judgmental. I believe in collaborating with my clients to tailor a treatment plan to fit their unique needs. Depending on your goals in therapy, I generally incorporate a strength-based approach using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing techniques and/or psychodynamic approaches to help increase self-awareness, engage in problem solving skills and teach positive coping strategies.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cranford
Finding the right therapist in Cranford, NJ starts with identifying what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Common credentials include Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs), and psychologists. If you may need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help.
Cranford is home to a range of mental health providers offering both in-person and virtual sessions. Many serve nearby Union County communities like Westfield, Scotch Plains, Clark, and Garwood.
