Hello and welcome! I have been assisting clients with navigating some of the most difficult stages of life. I have provided services with clients between the ages of 4 and 96. I specialize in aging, grief/loss and life transitions.
Welcome!
Navigating the path to healing can feel daunting, especially for marginalized individuals facing systemic barriers. My mission is to honor and empower your strength and vulnerability as you seek support. Together, we'll create a safe space where you can share your story authentically, free from judgment or criticism. I integrate cultural, racial, and ethnic understanding into our sessions to ensure your unique experiences are respected and validated.
Hi, I’m a licensed clinician committed to creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, emotional regulation challenges, trauma, life transitions, and relationship concerns. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, integrating evidence-based practices including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed approaches, while also providing clinical and forensic evaluation services. My goal is to help clients feel supported, understood, and empowered in their growth.
I am a board -certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping individuals achieve mental wellness through personalized, evidence-based care. I earned my Masters of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry and have several years of experience working with diverse populations in both in person and tele-psychiatry settings. My clinical focus includes mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related conditions and life traditions. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard and empowered.
I’m the owner of a growing group practice Guided Hope Center, where our focus is helping individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, mentally drained, or stuck in patterns that aren’t working especially around anxiety, relationships, and life transitions.
With over 10 years in the mental health field, I’ve worked across outpatient and in-home settings and have advanced training in trauma. I’m also trained in the Gottman Method (Level 2) for couples work and provide clinical direction and support to my team in this approach.
When you reach out, I take time to understand what you’re looking for and thoughtfully match you with a clinician in my practice who fits your needs, personality, and goals. Our goal is not just to get you into therapy but to get you connected with the right therapist.
Please note: Couples counseling is offered as a self-pay service and is not billed through insurance. This allows us to focus treatment on the relationship rather than insurance billing requirements. We'd be happy to discuss fees and answer any questions during your consultation.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Teaneck starts with getting clear on what kind of care you need. Consider whether you're looking for help with a specific concern — like anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or trauma — or whether you'd benefit from a psychiatrist who can prescribe medication. Teaneck and the surrounding Bergen County area are home to providers trained in a wide range of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic therapy.
From there, practical factors matter. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions in the Teaneck area or virtual visits, and look for a provider whose availability matches your schedule. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and areas of focus before you commit. Many providers also offer a free phone consultation so you can see if the fit feels right.
Therapy in the Teaneck area can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to find a provider who fits both your needs and your budget.
