Female Therapists in Closter, NJ

I specialize in helping people of all ages—kids, teens, and adults—navigate anxiety, depression, and trauma. Join me on a journey of self-discovery where we can tackle the areas in your life you want to improve and empower you to focus on your health and overall well-being. Let's work together to build on what you already have and achieve your goals!

I treat people, not a diagnosis. Life stressors impact everyone differently. I provide virtual holistic consultation, counseling and therapy to individuals at all stages of life. Whether you have been in therapy in the past and have a medical diagnosis, or if you feel that you are in need of supportive guidance, please reach out. I provide a conscious space, Mindfully, to assist you in learning to cope with stressors, life changes and goals. I believe that regardless of a medical diagnosis one can learn to live a life of deeper awareness, peace and balance. Before becoming a licensed professional counselor, I taught 4th grade.

As a licensed psychotherapist experienced in working with children, teens, and young adults, my passion is to provide a safe space for you to help you achieve your goals and overcome challenges. I use an eclectic approach tailored to meet your unique individual needs. I integrate strategies and techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and art therapy as well as my love for yoga and mindfulness-based practice. My dual role as the lead point-person for mental health counseling in an area school affords me a unique perspective in supporting any school-related needs which may be present.

Therapy can be a life-changing and empowering experience. It is a courageous step towards personal growth, self-knowledge, and self-acceptance. I offer a non-judgmental and confidential space for you to explore your feelings and personal issues at a pace that is comfortable to you. I use a mix of different therapeutic techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, psycho-dynamic approaches, mindfulness, and many others.

We all face challenges and stresses that take significant emotional resources and effort to navigate effectively. Often, we are able to cope with our difficulties on our own or with the help of friends or family. Sometimes, however, we face challenges that feel overwhelming and beyond our capacity to manage by ourselves or even with the support of loved ones. At these times a psychotherapist can help in a unique way. Psychotherapy can help us to identify personal tendencies and patterns, and thereby understand how we unwittingly perpetuate certain problems in spite of ourselves.

My motto is that progress is a process when implementing growth. Through exploration of thoughts and feelings, we will build a collaborative avenue for change. I utilize a patient-centered, strengths-based perspective, and trauma-informed lens. Through relationally-oriented psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, we will create a safe space filled with empathy, warmth, and challenge. We will partner together to better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how you will build the tools to navigate both positive and difficult situations.
