Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Clinton, NJ


The past few years have been extremely difficult for many people and may have caused or intensified emotional health struggles. It is common to feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or unsure of how to move forward. If you are feeling emotionally drained, struggling with anxiety, depression, panic, or no longer finding enjoyment in life the way you once did, you are not alone. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but meaningful growth and healing are possible.

I am a psychotherapist with over 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating a wide range of emotional and life challenges. My professional focus is helping individuals develop a greater sense of self, balance, and purpose while working through life’s hardships and transitions. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, panic attacks, PTSD, mood disorders, emotional dysregulation, and stress-related concerns. I also work extensively with couples and families addressing communication difficulties, parenting and co-parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, relationship conflict, health concerns, and major life transitions.
