Nice to meet you all. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to grow as a clinician while supporting others. The first half of my career I spent working with adolescents in schools and in their homes as a therapist. I gained a deep appreciation for their resilience, insight and growth. I currently work with adults who have both mental and physical challenges providing compassionate, person-centered care.

Do you feel like your brain is constantly running on overdrive? Maybe you’re navigating the frustrating cycle of procrastination, intense anxiety about falling behind, and the sudden rage or emotional outbursts that follow. You might feel misunderstood, labeled "lazy" or "difficult," when in reality, you are holding it together with incredible effort. If you are tired of the anxiety-depression loop, you are in the right place. I help adolescents and adults move from feeling overwhelmed and reactive to empowered and focused.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wayne

Finding the right therapist in Wayne, NJ starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or life transitions, a licensed provider with experience in that area can make a meaningful difference. Wayne-area therapists offer a range of approaches — from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to couples counseling — so it helps to consider what resonates with you before you start browsing.

Beyond specialty and approach, practical factors matter too. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions in Wayne or virtual appointments, and whether evening availability fits your schedule. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and what a first session might look like, which can help you feel more confident before booking.

Therapy in New Jersey can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront — and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. Enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Wayne and to see your estimated costs.
