About me

As a licensed therapist in New Jersey, I bring 25 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice specializes in helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal transitions. I focus on empowering individuals to develop stronger communication skills, overcome social anxiety, and rediscover their sense of purpose.

My therapeutic approach centers on addressing a wide range of concerns, including addiction recovery, family dynamics, workplace challenges, and women's/men's mental health. I'm particularly passionate about helping clients build self-love, work through codependency, and develop healthy coping strategies during significant life changes.

I believe in creating a compassionate, collaborative space where individuals can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and cultivate meaningful personal growth. My goal is to support you in developing resilience, understanding, and authentic connections—both with yourself and others.

Kathy has and continues to help me very much, I’m still new to therapy but she keeps me engaged so I don’t stop making appointments. It’s really hard to start this and stick with it but I’m lucky to be working with her
