About My Clients

I work best with teens, adults, and couples who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Whether you're navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or family stress, I offer a space where you can feel heard and supported. My ideal client is open to growth and ready to explore what healing and change can look like. Together, we’ll set meaningful goals and work at a pace that feels right for you.

My Background and Approach

I’m a licensed therapist in New Jersey with experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families. My background includes eight years of school-based counseling, three years of in-home work with youth and caregivers, and the last two years focused on individual therapy with adults. I'm also Level 2 certified in the Gottman Method, which I use to help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen connection. I’ve taught counseling at the graduate level, which sharpened my ability to blend research-based practices with real-life application. I use a person-centered, strengths-based approach that incorporates CBT and relational-cultural therapy, while tailoring treatment to your unique needs. Clients benefit from a warm, goal-oriented space where we work together to make meaningful progress. Whether you’re facing stress, relationship issues, or personal challenges, I’m here to help you feel more confident, connected, and empowered.
