“Strength doesn’t come from what you can do, it comes from overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t do”. Reaching out for therapy is a sign of incredible strength. Live the life you've always imagined, one step at a time.

 

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree from Monmouth University. I have 16 years of experience working intensively alongside a psychiatrist in an outpatient mental health setting prior to starting my own private practice. This experience was extremely valuable in sharpening my diagnostic skills and treatment planning abilities with clients. I enjoy working with individuals, families, and couples as well as other relationship conflict issues. I also have behavioral health inpatient and emergency room crisis experience working with psychotic disorders, mood disorders, addictions, and various other mental health disorders.

 

I am eclectic in my therapeutic approach, encompassing different styles to meet the client's needs including but not limited to Solution Focused, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness techniques. I aspire to empower my clients to create positive goals to reach their highest potential in a compassionate and empathetic manner; to regain clarity & confidence through counseling and coaching. Some of my specialties include anxiety, depression, codependency, relationships, personality disorders, unexpected life changes, and self-esteem.

​

Personally, I am an active person who enjoys the outdoors and doing home projects; I like to be busy and productive. When it is time to relax, you can usually find me a the beach or in my back yard around the fire or in the hammock! Some of my roles are a mom, daughter, aunt, sister, and friend. I was born to be a social worker and feel fulfilled by helping others. I value connecting with people and being a part of their lives in meaningful ways.
