Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am an LCSW licensed in the state of New Jersey with over 20 years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma, emotional abuse, and parenting struggles. I have worked with adults, families, children and teenagers.
When I engage a client in counseling, my approach is client centered. I will work with you to determine what the underlying cause is of your struggles and develop goals with you to lessen and manage those struggles. I work with sensitivity and sensitivity and compassion. I work as a partner with my client, focusing on their strengths and moving them forward to healing. My approach combines cognitive behavioral and solution focused therapy. We will develop a treatment plan together to meet your specific needs, and when we identify a barrier that gets in the way of your specific needs, we will work on a plan to remove that barrier.
It takes courage and humility to admit that you need help, and to seek counseling for that help, but taking that first step toward a change will lead to insight about why you are struggling and new skills to manage your struggle and heal from your pain. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support you and empower you in your journey of healing through your pain. My goal is for your healing, and to walk with you in the process.
I truly look forward to working with you!

For many common concerns – such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes – online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and clinical practice indicate that therapy delivered remotely often produces outcomes comparable to face-to-face care for these issues.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the mode of communication that works best for them – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and stay engaged over time.
Care is provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would better meet their needs. Online therapy expands access while maintaining the same core aims as in-person treatment: identifying concerns, setting goals, and developing skills to manage and move forward from life challenges.
