With the proper support and guidance, therapy helps you cultivate your strengths, regain control, learn ways to overcome challenges, enrich your life, and take steps toward a more fulfilling future. I can help you identify patterns in your life so that you can develop a clearer understanding of your life experiences and create more positive relationships and productive behavior change. I take an active and empathetic approach to psychotherapy by establishing mutually agreed upon therapeutic goals with my clients and providing a comfortable space to explore, discuss, and be heard.

My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, life transitions, disordered eating, and interpersonal and relationship difficulties. My therapy style combines psychodynamic, CBT and DBT therapies based on the specific needs of each client.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're simply ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

I earned my Master's and Doctorate degrees in School Psychology from Fairleigh Dickinson University and have over 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and families. I specialize in delivering client-centered therapy to individuals struggling to meet their full potential. Emotional wellness is crucial for successful functioning. I have a strong foundation in emotional, behavioral, and academic disabilities. I specialize in anxiety disorders, mood disorders, behavioral difficulties, relationship difficulties, executive dysfunction, school-related issues, chronic stress, mindfulness, and self-esteem.

I have worked on my own growth and awareness since I was 19 yrs old. Therapy helped change my life and old patterns that I developed in my early years. I have made tremendous changes in who I am and how I cope. I would like to help you do that too.
