Your pregnancy and postpartum experience can feel exciting but also disorienting, challenging with moments of unfamiliar anxiety, stress or depression. There is no best way to be a parent, only the way that is best for you. As a perinatal mental health specialist I offer practical support as well as a deeper exploration into your parenting experience. I will work with you to uncover the wise inner parent that already exists within you.

I help adult clients work through seasons of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, parenting concerns, and life transitions with a focus on insight, self-care, and building supportive relationships. I believe in your inherent resilience and capacity for growth and I will join you where you are and we will walk together on your journey. I draw on mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and a practical approach to healing. See if I'm accepting new clients and book online at www.resolutioncc.com/team

February 2024: Accepting new clients in person in Millburn, Hoboken, and with telehealth! My ultimate goal is to help you, your child or teen, and/or your family develop resiliency, strengthen relationships, reconnect with your possibilities, and learn new ways of handling the stresses and challenges facing us today. Utilizing a strength-based, client-centered approach, we will work together to develop meaningful goals and work towards them in a collaborative way in order to decrease stress, learn new coping skills, and develop flexible ways of handling life's ups and downs.

Relationships are complicated and often very stressful and upsetting. I work with people who are grappling to communicate better with the most important people in their lives. Wanting to be heard, understood, supported and loved is human nature. This can sometimes be a challenge without outside, neutral help. Misunderstandings often can get in the way of intimate relationships, leaving each person feeling alone, disillusioned and their actions misconstrued. I see my job as someone who can help navigate these confusing dynamics and openly talk about the possible underlying feelings that led to these behaviors in the first place.

Hello, are you looking to make a change in some way...? My personal goal as a therapist is to help people express themselves and be their best. In order to do this, I utilize talk and the creative arts therapies. You may discover the mode of therapy that best suits you. You may find the grounding you need in your life, learn new coping skills, and see your ability to reach your full potential by making connections that you may not see on your own.

As a child therapist and mother of three, I empathize with the wide range of feelings, questions, and transitions parents experience daily. In my practice, I help parents with their toddlers, preschoolers, school age children, and teenagers who may be struggling with questions about development, appropriate behavior, social skills, academics, anxiety, depression, ASD, and a wide array of complex issues. Together, we work collaboratively toward a deeper understanding of the issues and begin to solve them. Human connection is the most important factor in improving behavior, mood, and overall development! In the spirit of collaboration, we will work together to make lasting positive changes.

Life is gonna keep on lifin’ but you don’t have to let it stop you from living your best life! In my work I focus primarily on the therapeutic relationship, investing time and energy into getting to really KNOW each individual I work with uniquely, while seeing you as someone deserving of dignity, respect and compassion, with unlimited potential. If you’re struggling with relationships, a parent finding the demands of child rearing challenging, or a child, adolescent or young adult navigating school, social & family issues, I’d like to help.

Experience life in a new, more positively robust way. Learn how to live, love and laugh with abundance and leave your negative feelings behind. Therapy works. I can teach you how to make decisions that support living a happy and healthy life by avoiding unhealthy relationships, negative thinking, upsetting emotions and addictive behaviors. I will provide a safe space that is needed for healing. Together we will transform destructive cycles and grow towards a richer, more satisfying life. I think you will find me to be an open, responsive, insightful and non-judgmental person with a vast therapy "tool kit."

Psychotherapy is a relationship in which client and clinician align in the hope of growth and change. I am ready to invest in people willing to invest in themselves, and I do so in a compassionate, and inclusive way. I am open to individuals, couples, and families, am sensitive to cultural and religious differential, and welcome all members of the LGBTQ community. Through our relationship, we will realize your potential, and actualize your highest self. When you are ready to connect, I will meet you where you are, and journey with your toward fulfillment.

In a first meeting with a client, one of the most important parts of the session is to understand not only what brings a person into the office, “the problem” so to speak, but also to build out a framework of what the client believes will be the solution. What will it look like when things are better? Rather than pathologizing, I prefer to focus within the wellness model of counseling, identifying strengths and resources available to contribute toward a person’s personal counseling goals.

I am a warm and experienced clinical psychologist who specializes in adult and couples therapy. I help you feel more understood and supported in your relationships. I have extensive training in working with emotions, as well as understanding behavior and how to make positive changes in your life. There are always good reasons why you do what you do. We collaborate to understand what is getting in your way so you can achieve your goals. I can help you have better relationships.

I’ve helped thousands of clients cope with depression, anxiety, illness and relationships for over 25 years. I use cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and family systems therapies, but am flexible and personalize my approach for the specific situation and client needs. I work with individuals, families and couples, combining support, insight, cognitive and relaxation/imagery techniques. Trained as an undergraduate at Penn State, and at University of Texas at Austin for my masters, I’ve supervised and managed many psychotherapists at hospitals and mental health agencies.

Taking the step to seek treatment is incredibly brave but can be daunting; clients can expect that I will be a warm, active participant who is honored to guide them through the process. I work with children, teens, and adults to explore how elements of their histories may contribute to their current concerns and interfere with their ability to thrive. My specialization is in loss and trauma but I also treat anxiety, mood instability, parenting, and relationship issues. Clients at times have difficulty connecting with others or achieving their goals; I frequently integrate various tools and techniques to best help each individual.

Need couples counseling? Need help with a personal challenge? I provide therapy to couples and individuals dealing with a wide range of issues. Many couples I meet with are looking for helping improving the way they communicate and resolve conflict (including better ways to express anger). Others might need help with infidelity, parenting or family conflict. Some couples also need help deciding if they should stay together. I also work with many individuals trying to get to a better place. I help them with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship struggles. I have also worked with people struggling with addiction.
