As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I understand that seeking therapy can be a difficult step. I am committed to creating a warm and supportive space for you to begin your healing journey. I am trained in EMDR, a powerful therapy approach for working through traumatic experiences that can be effective for a range of mental health concerns. I received my Master's education at Rider University with additional trauma-focused training at Liberty University and EMDR Consulting.
The menopause season can bring unexpected emotional and mental health challenges- even for women who have never struggles with anxiety, mood changes or sleep challenges before. You may be experiencing new or intensified anxiety, anger, panic symptoms, health concerns, or a persistent sense of unease. This often feels confusing, and disruptive, to our daily living. Many women describe feeling unlike themselves and are unsure where to turn for support. It is my belief that we all have an innate resiliency to heal a wounded mind or a broken heart. Our work together aims to nurture what is already inside, to help understand your challenges and fortify your strengths.
"Be the change you want to see in the world" quote by Ghandi stands out to me when I think about how I want to make an impact in other's lives. Life can be stressful and challenging at times and sometimes speaking to someone who is non judgmental in a safe space is a great outlet. I am a bilingual (english/spanish) therapist and have 10 plus years of experience working with children as young as 3 to older adults. I am determined to helping and supporting you in finding what will help you best in reaching you goals. Finding the right therapeutic relationship and connection is important in your treatment. I am interested in getting to know you better and helping in your personal growth.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 6 years of experience, dedicated to helping people feel understood, supported, and empowered. I graduated summa cum laude from Rutgers with a Master’s in Rehabilitation and Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I primarily use CBT, but always tailor my approach to meet each client’s unique needs. I truly believe that with the right support, everyone has the capacity for growth and change. If you're ready to begin your journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
In my role as a therapist, I genuinely enjoy getting to know, deeply understanding, and helping others. I recognize that every person is unique, possessing inherent worth and pre-existing strengths, skills, and challenges, and facing genuinely difficult obstacles. Therefore, I meet each person with unconditional positive regard, and open, nonjudgmental curiosity.
I have worked successfully and collaboratively with a diverse range of adults of all ages (including senior citizens and adolescents), couples, and families. This includes those facing ambivalence at a pivotal juncture in life, as well as those struggling with persistent issues, such as depression or other mood disorders; anxiety disorders; ADHD, neurodivergence, and neurodevelopmental disorders; acute and complex trauma; schizophrenia spectrum disorders; addiction and codependency issues; grief and loss; and issues unique to adolescence, aging, women’s experiences, and gender diversity.
I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology at Gettysburg College and my Master's in Clinical Social Work at Rutgers University. In addition to my years in private practice, I have benefited from past experiences working in a high school setting, intensive outpatient settings, programs for those with co-occurring mental health and addiction needs, and programs serving those with co-occurring mental health and neurodevelopmental diagnoses.
All people are unique, and all behavior makes sense in its context when thoroughly explored and understood. I look forward to learning each person’s preferences and life experiences, and enjoy collaborating with them for positive change that significantly impacts their life and their future trajectory.
Your Well-Being Is My Priority. My passion is helping you achieve wellness, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life. As a board-certified and licensed Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) in New York and New Jersey, I provide comprehensive psychiatric care, including medication management and psychotherapy. With over 18 years of experience in psychiatry, I have worked in both acute care hospitals and outpatient clinics across NY and NJ. I treat individuals of all ages, from children, teenagers, young adults to seniors over 80s, offering compassionate and evidence-based care tailored to your unique needs.
I’m not your average therapist. My style is down-to-earth, collaborative, and real. I don’t believe in “fixing” you — because you’re not broken. I believe healing happens through connection, curiosity, and understanding your story in a new way.
