Understanding the causes of anxiety, depression, and other types of psychological suffering by increasing self-awareness is the key to navigating life's challenges.

Whether you are a child, teenager, or adult of any age, struggling with anxiety, sadness, grief, or trauma, whatever it is that brings you here, welcome. When we reach a crossroads or struggle to move forward, therapy can broaden our perspectives and offer new insights. As we take what we learn in therapy and apply it in our lives, we can begin to feel different: lighter, richer, fuller. It can feel like we are opening a window to allow more oxygen and light to enter.

Over 30 years of experience as a social worker has taught me that it takes a lot of courage to ask for help. I have great respect for anyone who has that courage. Most of us feel we can fix things ourselves and most of the time we probably can, but sometimes we feel completely overwhelmed by circumstances beyond our control. At such times, the expertise of a trained therapist can help us to find the strength to work through the issues that prevent us from taking the actions necessary to create fresh options and opportunities in our lives. I feel so lucky to be doing a job I love so much. I care deeply about helping people move beyond their perceived limitations to live a life that is deeply fulfilling and joyful.

The word trauma means “wound” and so many of life's experiences can leave us feeling hurt, isolated, and confused. Everyone needs help from time to time, to heal from past experiences, navigate important life decisions, and learn how to cope with whatever circumstances they are dealt. I believe in a collaborative and creative therapeutic process that utilizes a variety of modalities to suit the needs of my clients. I also use expressive arts techniques to harness the healing power of creativity and self-expression.

With a deep commitment to empowering others, I was inspired to pursue a career in social work after my own life experiences motivated me to help individuals achieve their goals. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Kean University in 2012 and have since dedicated my career to supporting children, youth, adults, and families across diverse settings. I take a solution-focused and strengths-based approach to therapy, prioritizing culturally competent care for clients from all backgrounds, particularly Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC).
