I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey, a Nationally Certified Counselor, and a Certified Child and Adolescent Trauma Professional. I aim to build a strong, therapeutic relationship with you to help us work together towards your goals. As I walk along with you throughout your growth journey, I will utilize your strengths to help you achieve your goals and utilize the most effective therapeutic treatment(s) that is tailored to your individual life.

As a therapist, I have worked with individuals ages 2-21 through mobile response crisis situations, intensive in-home therapy, residential group home settings and partial care level group therapy. While working with children, adolescents and adults, I integrate family sessions as clinically indicated to promote sustainability within the household. I have also worked with all ages 65+, as an outpatient clinician in a community setting. Regardless of my clients’ ages, I aim to prioritize self-determination, promote well-being, and provide a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgmental environment for my clients to achieve their goals at their own pace.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
