About

Each day brings new challenges that can make it feel difficult to persevere. During those tough times, it’s important to remember that we still hold the power to choose our path and, above all, that we are worthy of success. As your therapist, my goal is to help you create a safe and compassionate space where you feel truly heard. Together, we will explore the stressors and symptoms you're facing and set actionable goals to help you overcome obstacles. It takes strength and courage to seek support, and I’m proud of you for taking that first step toward healing and growth.

Qualifications and Approach:

I am a Licensed Social Worker for the state of New Jersey and received my education at Fordham University.

Additionally, I have experience working with youths who struggle with ASD/ADHD diagnoses, anger management, family conflict, impulse control, and trauma. My treatment modalities include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Informed Treatment, and Person-Centered Approaches.
