I have dedicated most of my career to working in the healthcare and mental health industry, helping clients overcome life's many struggles.
I am trained to employ a variety of techniques, which include cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for anxiety, depression, and other related disorders. I also have special interests in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and coaching. All of my techniques are compassion-focused, person-centered, solution-oriented, and strength-based therapies
I strongly believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship to help my clients facilitate change. My approach is to help clients move through emotional discomfort, challenge unhealthy beliefs, and explore who they are. Together, we can work in a solution-focused manner to help you recognize the patterns in your life or relationships that may be holding you back.
I have been on my own healing journey for 40+ years and so I know personally how much courage and effort it can take to heal and grow. I also know how amazing life and relationships can get as a part of that healing process; I wish that experience for everyone.
Therapy is a place for personal growth. While seeking counseling services is not always an easy decision, it is most certainly a commendable and worthwhile one. As your counselor, it is my goal to help you grow into the person you want to become.
My Master’s Degree is in Clinical and Counseling Psychology, which was obtained from William Paterson University of New Jersey. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical and Alcohol Drug Counselor (LCADC).
