I consider myself to be a “down to earth” non conventional therapist with an extremely open mind, and relaxed style which clients say helps them to feel comfortable and safe right away. I like to form genuine relationships with my clients! Sessions will be filled with laughter, tears, deep realizations, and growth. I learn something new from everyone I encounter in therapy. Please reach out to me I'm excited to start connecting and healing with you!
I specialize in working with trauma bonds, relationships, love addiction, self esteem/body image issues, trauma, anxiety, depression, weight loss surgery/bariatric, substance abuse, and more! If you need to talk about something I will cater your treatment to your unique needs. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques: Narrative Therapy, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and much more! I am constantly reading and learning the most effective approaches so that I can use them in the therapeutic process. I have a Bachelors Degree in Psychology, Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in NJ.
