Whether you are in a place of uncertainty and desperation or hoping to reach your utmost potential, I congratulate you for making this step in taking control of your life and facing your challenges. Every individual, whether you are a parent, student, professional, athlete or performer, endures pain or confusion at some point in life. As a professional support to you, I feel privileged to assist you, without judgement, in reclaiming a life of peace and control that you so rightly deserve.
My specialty is "trauma", which is a broad term. Any experience that leaves you feeling unsafe, confused, insecure or unloved can be traumatic. I work with sexual abuse, violent and workplace trauma, natural disasters, infidelity and all the anxieties that may come with trying to cope with these issues.
I use an eclectic approach because no one modality fits every person and every situation. I use psychotherapy techniques, cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis and EMDR. I also continually attend conferences to stay current with the best and newest forms of treatments.
I have over 30 years experience in the field of mental health. I specialize in trauma, grief and Womens challenges. I am constantly learning new and evidenced based ways to help my clients.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PsA, I approach my practice with a person-centered and holistic perspective, guiding clients to identify and pursue solutions in every facet of their lives. My commitment is to create a space where individuals can explore their thoughts and emotions freely, fostering a collaborative journey towards growth and healing.
I’m a compassionate, collaborative therapist who is deeply committed to helping clients feel understood, supported, and empowered in their growth. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns that feel difficult to break. My style is warm, nonjudgmental, and grounded in genuine curiosity about your lived experience.
I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up fully as yourself—without pressure or pretense. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on you, uncover underlying patterns, and build tools that support meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your decisions, and more equipped to handle life’s complexities.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Highland Park, NJ
Searching for therapists in Highland Park starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare Highland Park therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to address. Provider bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Highland Park is a smaller community, so local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each profile before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.
Therapy in Highland Park can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, check estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
