So, you're getting divorced. First, I'm sorry you're going through this, or any other upsetting and life-altering experience, including job loss, grief, or litigation, among others. I'm sure getting to this point has been no fun at all. And now comes the hard part: hanging onto yourself while your life gets rearranged.

I'm here for you. I am an open, non-judgmental, accepting, compassionate, warm, and empathetic therapist. Together in a safe, trusting, and supportive environment we can explore and uncover how you ended up at this point in your life, and find a way through.

I view therapy as an opportunity to build a meaningful life. This can be through either discovering new meaning or recognizing meaning that's been there all along. In building therapeutic relationships, I aspire to form genuine, authentic connections with patients. My specialities include working with those experiencing existential anxiety or dread, those with complicated grief, trauma survivors, those with persistent suicidal ideation, and those who use drugs and aren't interested in abstinence.

My clients often share that they feel heard, seen, and celebrated as individuals throughout therapy. I apply research-backed, trauma-informed, multi-culturally competent individual therapy to instill hope, self-compassion, and empowerment in young people. Through gentle guidance, developmentally appropriate psychoeducation, and empathic listening, my clients are able to tap into their inner strengths and vulnerabilities, and learn to tolerate discomforts and-- once and for all-- conquer their fears and insecurities.

I am PA/NJ licensed clinical social worker with over 20 yrs experience. I received my BA in Psychology in 1994 and my MSW in 1997. Since then, I have worked in various settings including the Behavioral Health System of Philadelphia, numerous behavioral health facilities which include psychiatric units, detox and rehabs, college counseling settings and in assisted living/nursing facilities with older adults. In 2013, I started an in person private practice and then made the jump to telehealth during the pandemic. I find that telehealth is much more accessible and convenient for clients as we are still able to do amazing work!

As a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I deeply understand that our relationships mean everything: to our family, our partners, our friends, and ourselves. When we are unhappy and suffering, our needs are not being met in a fundamental way. My vision for successful therapy is allowing the space and time to explore those needs. As a therapist who uses systems theory, I might explore the different ‘parts’ of a person's experience with themselves and others in Individual and Family Therapy. In Couples Therapy, I pull from the Gottman Method as well as EFT to strengthen and heal relationships with fantastic and practical tools.

Do you ever feel like you’re constantly trying to do it all, but no matter how much you accomplish, it never feels like enough? Like you’re always chasing that perfect version of yourself, but it’s exhausting and overwhelming? You might recognize how hard you push yourself to meet those high expectations, but it’s easy to get stuck in that cycle—working harder and harder, only to drift into overwhelm, isolation, and feeling disconnected from yourself and others. You’re definitely not alone! I help teens and women who feel trapped by perfectionism, guiding them to break free from the pressure and create space for more balance life!

I enjoy working with people who challenge the established norms of our society, in the pursuit of a more holistic future for themselves and our world. This includes activists, educators, artists, fellow mental health professionals, writers, musicians, and those who live in ways unique to themselves. A throughline of my work revolves around the realm of disabilities, many of which remain unrecognized by others. I believe that disability advocacy requires working through issues of power, autonomy, social inequality, and environment.
