My experiences have ranged across the lifespan with a heavy focus on working with children, adolescents, parents, and young adults in a variety of settings.
I'm a licensed clinical psychologist & certified school psychologist. My training includes work at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, Kean Psychological Services, private practice, & several school districts. When you sit with me, we'll focus on what's going on, create a timeline of your symptoms, and discuss your thoughts, behaviors, & feelings. We'll also discuss their functions, any reinforcing variables, & the interaction between these different elements. Overall, I tend to understand behavior in terms of experiential avoidance and escape behavior. I emphasize a data driven approach and will track your progress in therapy.

Starting therapy can be a scary journey, but I’m here to provide you with a safe environment to discuss all of the issues and concerns you’ve been bottling up inside. Change only happens when we challenge ourselves to venture outside of our comfort zone, and I’m here to walk with you every step of the way. I incorporate the principles of mindfulness and Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT) in all of my sessions as I believe living in the present moment helps improve our connection with self, others, and the world around us.

My experience is diverse within the mental health field, stretching over 15 years from working with chronically mentally ill adults to teens, children and families.
“Wellness” means something different to everyone. Mental and emotional wellness are key to living a healthy, happy life. My approach to therapy combines traditional methodologies with components of mindfulness & breath work. Using a client-centered yet eclectic approach, I believe in the importance of building a strong therapeutic relationship in a safe, comfortable environment. The therapeutic process is a personal & individualized one, and as such this allows me to meet you in the present while being a catalyst through your change process.

As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” I'm led by my resolute beliefs in an individual's resiliency to overcome life trials and thrive in the face of adversity when provided with the right environment, tools and resources. I take pride in building a therapeutic relationship with you that feels validating, empowering, mutually transparent and compassionately confrontational. Being a bicultural individual has inspired me to remain open, inquisitive and adaptable to distinctive personal values and ways of life.

Searching for the right therapist can be daunting and exhausting! I recognize the hesitation in sharing personal and vulnerable information with a stranger, yet encourage you to give it a try. Seeking guidance/direction/insight/skills on a situation in your life that needs to be addressed shows hope, courage, and strength.

I know one of the most important pieces in creating a successful therapeutic and safe space is creating a healthy and understanding relationship with all clients. Therefore, I fully believe in an individualistic approach, as I remain consciously aware that each individual is different and what might work for one will likely not work for all.
