I am a very laid-back therapist. I value the therapeutic relationship we build. I view our experience as a travel we go on together to help remove obstacles leading to your chosen goals. This is also your safe place to talk about things you may not feel comfortable talking to with people in your day-to-day life. My approach is to provide a nonjudgmental safe space.
I was an educator for almost 14 years when I began my training in clinical mental health. I initially worked with teens and families in intensive in-home therapy. I transitioned to outpatient where I worked with women and men who had histories of abuse. My training and experience have been predominantly in trauma and grief. I have worked with individuals who suffer from mood disorders as well as personality disorders, particularly those with complex traumas and abuse in their histories.
I strive to create a space that is comfortable, accepting and lighthearted at times. I enjoy creating a therapeutic relationship that involves a direct approach while also being welcoming and open-minded.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Searching for therapists in Northfield starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to focus on. Profiles may mention methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy, which can help you understand how each therapist works.
In a smaller city like Northfield, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger New Jersey markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still keeping care connected to your schedule, preferences, and insurance. As you narrow your options, consider whether a therapist offers in-person or virtual sessions, has openings that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can also show how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Northfield can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, check whether your plan may apply, and see an estimated session cost before you book. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
