Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hello and thank you for taking a moment to get to know me! I’m a dedicated therapist with extensive experience across the lifespan, working with clients as young as toddlers to older adults well into their 90s. I hold a master’s in clinical counseling and mental health and am advancing my training in a PhD program in Psychology. My clinical journey spans all levels of care from inpatient settings to outpatient therapy where I have supported individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of mental health and substance use challenges. I specialize in working with complex diagnoses and am deeply committed to addressing difficult issues rather than avoiding them. I bring a holistic approach as an individual, family, and couples’ therapist, creating a compassionate and empowering space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I have worked extensively with mental health, trauma, relationship dynamics, and substance use, always striving to help clients build resilience, regain confidence, and reconnect with themselves and loved ones. My aim is to promote lasting change by helping clients challenge unhelpful patterns, strengthen emotional connections, and reclaim agency in their lives. I’m honored to walk alongside each person and family on their unique path toward healing and growth.
