About me
My ultimate goal is to help improve your well-being by supporting you in creating a more positive and healthy lifestyle. I understand that life can hand us lemons—sometimes over and over again—and I’m here to help you navigate those challenges in a rational and effective way. My hope is that you leave our sessions feeling refreshed, motivated, empowered, and ready to face life’s challenges with intention and confidence.
I strive to be personable, empathetic, and nonjudgmental in every interaction. I understand how essential rapport is to the therapeutic relationship, and I take the time to truly listen, learn, and understand you so I can best support your needs. My approach allows me to meet you where you are, helping you feel safe and comfortable throughout our sessions. I am also committed to continuously learning and growing in the field of mental health to strengthen my skills as a counselor and better serve you.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of New Jersey. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University in 2014 and completed a Play Therapy Certificate through Capella University in 2017. With more than 10 years of experience, I have worked in a variety of settings, including methadone clinics, intensive in-home services, and outpatient care, serving diverse populations. I support children, adolescents, and adults with mental health diagnoses, individuals seeking extra help managing life’s challenges, and those who simply need someone to listen.
