Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Asbury Park, NJ

Accepting New Clients: It is my belief that therapy is a mutual endeavor in which clients and therapists work together to explore healthy ways of coping with life stressors, environmental influences, and relationships that impact functioning and well being. Having worked in a myriad of settings, I am familiar with the sensitive issues and challenges associated with depression, anxiety, gender identify, substance use and/or traumatic history for both teens and adults. By utilizing an eclectic approach to therapy, you will be supported in the pursuit of your individual needs and will be met with unconditional positive regard.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's Degree from William Paterson University in Clinical and Counseling Psychology. I have over 7 years of experience in talk therapy working with individuals, couples, and families in partial care programs, intensive outpatient, and outpatient agency settings. In my last role at Center for Children's Behavioral health I served as program director while maintaining a client caseload. My clinical approach is integrated and incorporates a variety of different theoretical orientations including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and more.

I'm a therapist who specializes in working with relationships and individuals with relationship-based challenges. I work to help relationships and individuals eliminate the barriers interfering with finding intimacy, connection, and validation within their relationships. My primary focus is to help clients identify their stuck points and to help them find opportunities to make changes in favor of meeting their goals. I find that success begins with creating a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients can share their challenges and goals to identify where they are at and how I can best meet their specific needs.

Trauma and life's challenges disconnect us from ourselves, our support system, and our community. In these times, having someone who is consistent and genuine can make a significant difference in bridging these gaps. With my experience in individual, group, and family therapy, I look forward to helping you navigate these difficulties. My approach to therapy is practical, straightforward, and hands-on, allowing for a more accessible and impactful experience.

My experience lies in helping clients (children, adolescents, adults) navigate mental health and wellness concerns, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, social anxiety & fear, anger management issues, life transitions, family and relationship issues, parenting skills, academic & career motivation, oppositional behavior, etc. I utilize evidence-based treatment modalities (CBT & DBT) while incorporating a person-centered approach that borrows from existential and spiritual wellness philosophies. I specialize in working with clients from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds, LGBTQIA+ community, and Autism Spectrum Disorder.
