Are you attempting to manage feelings that have been building up over time? You may be living with anxiety and depression, generally feeling stuck, and/or are trying to manage the personalities of people around you. Perhaps you aren’t quite sure how to talk about what’s happening; but something doesn’t feel right—things just feel off. During times like this, talking to a professional can help. I work with young adults, parents, college and graduate students including international students. I have niche specialized experience working with medical professionals such as physicians, nurses and medical trainees.

Deciding to start therapy can be a challenging and vulnerable process. My goal as a therapist is to make each individual feel as safe and supported as possible with high levels of empathy, compassion, and genuineness. Throughout the therapy process, I value the importance of improving relationships, managing stress, and increasing the ability to identify and regulate emotions. In sessions, I emphasis the importance of processing core beliefs we hold towards ourself and the world, practicing daily mindfulness, and learning skills to effectively regulate our emotions. I also provide supervision for pre-licensed clinicians!

Do you frequently think “what’s wrong with me?” or “no one likes me" or "the world is completely against me”. Does everything feels like an uphill battle or a heavy weight on your shoulders? Maybe you feel empty all the time, or like you have a lump in your throat. Perhaps you keep on making the same mistakes. Mistakes that cause you, and at times others, hurt. If any of this resonates with you, first off, realize that nothing is "wrong" with you. You need a non-judgmental ear who gets where you are coming from, can help guide you through these feelings, and give you tools and hope.

I specialize in working with folks with ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent types in NJ and PA, but I also heavily work with anxiety, depression, and issues surrounding activation and assertiveness. So, I'm very action-oriented in my approach and that's because I believe when we see and experience change, it can help build momentum. People are resilient, creative, and adaptive, but sometimes we get stuck. (And when we neurodivergent folks get stuck, we get really stuck!) Let's work to build awareness, strategies, and change!

Some of the issues that I specialize in include the following: sex and gender identity, open/poly relationships, trauma, neurodivergence, depression, anxiety, couples, grief, BDSM/kink, sex therapy.

Thus, I hope to support you through your own self-discovery with radical level of love, acceptance, and compassion so you can model that same love, acceptance, and self-compassion within. I aim to provide a warm, inviting, and brave space to share without fear of judgment.

I've helped many people challenged by family history, trauma, anxiety, depression, overwhelm, burnout, isolation, grief and chronic illness to resolve difficulties at work, home or in relationships.
It is hard being a person. We often engage in patterns of feeling, thought and action that reliably lead to suffering. These patterns arise in response to difficult and even traumatic experiences. They made good sense at some point, but now get in the way, causing anxiety, depression, shame and frustration. I work with people to bring increased awareness to the human potential caught up in old patterns, and via that awareness, to an enhanced sense of choice and self confidence and ease. My work draws on your wisdom, as well as my own.
