Many of the adults I work with grew up feeling unseen—whether because of childhood trauma, emotionally unavailable parents, or painful relationship patterns. Those early experiences can stay with us, shaping the way we see ourselves and connect with others. Over time, it can feel like you’re stuck in the same cycles, questioning your worth, or struggling to build the relationships you want.
Becoming a therapist felt like a natural calling: a way to combine compassion with practical tools to help people heal, grow, and find balance. Over the years, I’ve seen how therapy can transform lives—restoring hope, strengthening relationships, and helping clients rewrite the stories they tell themselves. That transformation is what inspires me every day to do this work with warmth, empathy, and genuine care. I absolutely love what I do and I feel very blessed to do this work everyday.

Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing.

My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark
Finding the right addiction therapist in Newark starts with identifying what kind of support you need. Addiction and substance use disorders can involve alcohol, drugs, or behavioral patterns — and the right provider depends on your specific situation. Look for a licensed therapist or psychiatrist who specializes in addiction counseling and has experience with concerns like yours. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their background, approach, and what a session with them looks like.
Newark has a range of mental health care options, but narrowing your search can take time — especially when you need a provider who is both qualified and accepting new patients. Consider what matters most to you, whether that's a provider who offers virtual sessions, speaks your language, or is located near neighborhoods like the Ironbound, Downtown Newark, or University Heights.
Addiction counseling in Newark can be costly without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs upfront before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per session depending on your coverage.
