I am a Licensed Professional Counselor offering virtual therapy in Connecticut, New Jersey, Maryland, and Virginia. I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision and specialize in working with individuals navigating the impact of childhood maltreatment and trauma, including sexual abuse. I also support women living with autoimmune diseases who are managing the emotional and psychological toll of chronic illness.
As a licensed psychotherapist with over ten years of experience in many settings ranging from community mental health agencies, non profits, private practice, the school system and teletherapy work I have had the privilege of working with people from many walks of life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Plainfield
Finding the right therapist in Plainfield starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the type of support that fits your situation — whether that's help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or something else. Look for a licensed provider (such as an LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or psychologist) who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and approach before you commit to a session.
Plainfield is in Union County, with easy access to providers in neighboring communities like Scotch Plains, Westfield, and South Plainfield. Many therapists in this area offer both in-person and virtual sessions, which can make it easier to fit appointments into your schedule. If a specific therapy style matters to you — such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) — look for providers who list that approach in their profile.
