Family Therapy in Ridgewood, NJ

My unique training in both behavioral and somatic therapies allows me to craft a treatment plan with your input that best fits your needs. I believe in utilizing the wisdom of the body , the rich information present in emotions, an examination of how you show up in the world behaviorally, and the way your mind has learned to protect you in order to guide you toward resiliency and improved coping with daily life. You will learn coping skills through mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and somatic resourcing. We talk and problem solve when needed and somatically process when indicated.

Do you feel like your emotions rule your life? That you are overwhelmed by how to make the changes you want to see? I am here to help! As an expert in emotions, I offer compassionate, thoughtful, ethical, and effective care. I specialize in helping high school-aged adolescents, adults, and families navigate their emotional challenges. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, suicidal thoughts, self-harm behaviors, depression, or symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder, I am here to support you. I am intensively trained in DBT, a proven method for managing complex emotions.

Has opening up about things in your life you are struggling with been difficult? Have drugs or alcohol become more and more of a problem than a solution? Perhaps you have felt there is no way out, or maybe you’ve done the hard work to make it this far but are looking for that final push to really begin living your life to its fullest again. Addiction is complicated, much bigger than substance alone, and therapy is a major component to addressing addictions from all sides, assisting you in taking back control of your life once and for all.

Many people struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, chronic illness, grief, loss or life changes find themselves wondering how to begin their healing journey.

I specialize in helping people manage anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues and grief and loss. Together we will develop a clear plan to reestablish safety and stability, clarity, and self-confidence.

Accepting new clients - Welcome! I’m glad you’re here and taking this courageous step to better yourself. People seek therapy for a variety of reasons, but you’ve come to the right place if life has felt more stressful than is manageable for you. The way you’re doing things isn’t helping you anymore. It is only making you feel more stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed. If you have been struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, stress, OCD, low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions or sports performance issues then let's connect.

When people think of therapy they tend to imagine a scary place where they have to tap into themselves to open up to strangers. I became a therapist because I wanted to be that safe place for someone to feel comfortable opening up. Everyone has a story. Each person has the right to feel heard, not judged, safe, and understood. My goal is to help them reach that satisfaction in a safe non-judgmental zone.

Feeling connected to and understood provides the foundation for any healthy relationship, including the therapeutic relationship. It is my goal to provide a supportive, trusting and non-judgmental environment in order to foster greater self-awareness, insight and personal growth and fulfillment. One parent of a 13-year old client said: "During one of the darkest and most difficult times in our lives, in you came ready to listen, guide, support, and be a beacon of light in an otherwise dark time. My son immediately felt safe with you and trusted you. That is a true gift and says so much about you both personally and professionally."
