My goal is to help individuals manage difficult thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I believe positive change can happen when individuals take the time and space to get to know themselves.  I can help you achieve this by providing a neutral and safe space, listening to you and/or your child's concerns, and developing collaborative treatment goals.  From there, treatment becomes solution-focused and aims to help individuals get back to a manageable state of mind.

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), I have over 15 years of experience. This enables me to offer effective, evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to children, adolescents, and adults.  After completing my Masters in Social Work (MSW)  at Kean University, and becoming licensed, I completed a post-graduate program at NYU, focusing on the treatment of adolescents.  I was trained at the BECK Institute and received accreditation by The Academy of Cognitive Therapy (ACT), as a certified diplomat. In addition, I am certified through The Trichotillomania Learning Center (TLC) in the treatment of hair pulling and other body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs). Prior to starting my private practice I was a therapist at Summit Medical Group- Behavioral  Health and Cognitive Therapy Center for over 10 years. During that time I was fortunate enough to supervise several therapists, helping them develop skills to become certified in CBT.
