About My Clients
Are you feeling stuck in your life? Are you feeling weighed down by current external stressors and/or past experiences? I would like to help you explore the "whys" of how you're feeling, leveraging a trusting therapeutic alliance in order to delve into your inner world. I am passionate about working closely with adults and adolescents on a variety of issues pertaining to trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, LGTBQIA+-related issues, ADHD and anger.
My Background and Approach
I practice first and foremost from a Client-Centered perspective. What this means is that I wholeheartedly believe in the transformative nature of a strong client-counselor relationship. By working to create a space that is safe, affirming, empathic, and non-judgmental, I believe it will encourage clients to feel safe enough to open up and explore their inner worlds with healthy curiosity and compassion.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that all individuals are inclined towards positive growth. I also think that sometimes we have adverse experiences and/or circumstances that can hinder that growth, effectively keeping us from moving towards the best versions of ourselves. It is my job as a counselor to help clients move beyond those challenging barriers with the ultimate goal of improving their quality of life. I am also a proud ally of the LGBTQIA+ community, and I have previously engaged in rewarding volunteer work with my local New Jersey Pride Center. Lastly, I am primarily interested in helping clients to gain a better understanding of themselves so that they can clarify their most important values and goals - and then take action in a way that aligns with those values and goals.
