I earned my Master's Degree in Social Work from Monmouth University in 2020. Over the past four years, I have worked as an addictions counselor, supporting individuals dealing with opiate use, alcoholism, and other substance use disorders. Additionally, I have served as a psychotherapist, treating adults, children, couples, and families. I believe that each person has unique needs in therapy—whether it’s education, support, a listening ear, or guidance. My goal is to identify what you need and determine how I can best support you.

“Change is painful, but nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don't belong.” It is easy to feel stuck when the negative self talk, and the painful memories consistently show up. People tell you you look like you have it all together, but inside you feel overwhelmed, irritable, anxious and burnt out. I help women break free from these pain points to live the lifestyle they desire. Our sessions together would be tailored to your needs to break through anxieties, negative cycles, traumas, and to create a lifestyle design that meets your needs through a holistic lens.
