My aim is to first help clients feel heard, understood, and supported in their goals. Then, I aim to provide evidence based interventions to equip them with the tools necessary to help them feel stronger, and empowered to face life's challenges.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey dedicated to helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety, depression, trauma, and the many transitions life throws our way. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Psychology, a journey that fuels my commitment to providing evidence-based care while staying at the forefront of clinical research.
My professional background includes supporting adults and young adults through challenges ranging from PTSD and substance use to family dynamics and relationship stressors. I also specialize in supporting clients through gender-specific issues and significant life stages, including postpartum support and major career or personal shifts.
I believe the foundation of effective therapy is a warm, nonjudgmental partnership. At Holistic Counseling Solution, I strive to create a space where you feel truly seen and comfortable being yourself. Together, we will focus on your unique strengths to foster the meaningful, lasting change you are looking for.
I have worked in areas of substance abuse, mental health and with children and families. I am compassionate and assess each client's needs and personal goals.
I am a social worker and clinical therapist. I have experience working with addiction, and with trauma, depression and anxiety, as well as relationship issues and family conflict.
As a single mom of color, I have witnessed the extreme societal pressure placed on mothers to choose between their career or their children; leaving little room to even provide attention to their own self care. This ignited a passion within me to use my skills to support women to navigate through the chaos. My goal is to work with those women who may need help coping through these very real everyday stressors. Not a mom? That's ok! I can also empathize with the pressure placed on women of color in the workplace to work so much harder than their male counterparts. Its my hope to create a safe space for you to explore these feelings.
It can be challenging at times for women to have access to a therapist who can empathize with their experiences. Through a strengths based approach, I would love to share my personal experience with being a woman of color, a mom, a Christian, as well as a goal oriented professional in non-profit leadership and mental health.
Through this journey, I want you to find a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and self worth and I would be honored to take that walk with you. Our sessions will not be for me to "social work" you, but for you to unload some of the pressure and burden to make the ride a bit easier. No matter what it feels like, you got this... you can do this!
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), my approach is centered on building a collaborative partnership with clients, actively listening to their needs and concerns to develop a tailored plan that empowers them to achieve their goals. My style is warm, supportive, and detailed assessment to reach a correct diagnosis in treating patients. .
I have over 10 years of experience in a wide variety of clinical settings since obtaining my Master's degree and becoming a licensed clinician. I use a client centered approach that draws from my training in cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy, exposure and response prevention, and a trauma-informed approach. I have worked with people struggling with addictions, a wide variety of anxiety related difficulties, ADHD, depression, and some bodily focused repetitive behaviors. I also have experience working with couples to address relationship needs.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark
Finding the right ADHD therapist in Newark starts with understanding the type of care you need. ADHD can affect focus, organization, time management, and emotional regulation in both adults and children. A licensed therapist — such as a psychologist, licensed clinical social worker, or licensed professional counselor — can help you build strategies for managing day-to-day challenges. If medication management is part of your plan, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can evaluate and prescribe as needed. Many people benefit from working with both a therapist and a prescriber.
With a large number of mental health providers practicing across Newark and the surrounding Essex County area, narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most — whether that's a provider who focuses specifically on ADHD in adults, someone experienced with ADHD in children and teens, or a provider who also addresses co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.
Therapy in Newark can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket 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 2129 insurance plans, making it easier to find an ADHD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
