Family Therapy in Cranford, NJ

It's a stress filled world, with life often becoming overwhelming. Talking to someone can help you feel less vulnerable. In my work I strive to make that first step easier for you. I understand that even picking up the phone to make an appointment may feel too difficult.

It can be extremely tough to navigate through life with all of the obstacles we face on a daily basis. Adding to this, it can be difficult to maintain healthy relationships. I thrive on helping others find their inner strength and inner peace. Working closely with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, family-relational issues, as well as trauma, is my passion. I have extensive experience working with children and adults who face these challenges. Clients who struggle through life’s challenges, often need strengths based support, a focus on changing negative thought patterns, and developing healthy coping skills.

I am a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) specializing in the treatment of trauma and addictions.

I am a Licensed Social Worker with a passion for decreasing the stigma surrounding mental health and promoting the health and well being of my clients.

I received my Master of Social Work Degree with a clinical concentration from the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Social Policy and Practice in May of 2020.

Families are important to me, and learning to communicate in a world where technology and careers can disconnect the family—building bonds and relationships, learning to encourage and recognize the positive in others, and rebuilding relationships. To find the importance, look at past trauma individually, explore the impact trauma has on current situations, and heal the trauma to inspire the future and achieve success.

Therapy is different for everyone. I believe that our early relationships and experiences deeply shape how we see ourselves and respond to feelings. I use a flexible model of therapy that draws from Internal Family Systems, Emotionally Focused Therapy, neuropsychology, feminist/multicultural, and attachment theories. An emphasis is placed on appreciating the current emotional coping system before attempting to change it. I see my role as helping you develop a relationship with the parts of yourself that you may avoid, reject, or fear. My role is not to fix you (-you're not broken), and it is not to solve your problems.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, improving self-esteem, addressing and strengthening boundary setting and various other issues that lead to life struggles.
