She provides supportive, solution-focused therapy to individuals, couples, and families who are working through life’s challenges, drawing on a career that spans private practice and leadership in special services.

Her practice includes work with adolescents and young adults managing stress, anxiety, or life transitions; adults facing relationship challenges, work-related stress, or major life changes; couples seeking improved communication and deeper connection; and families navigating conflict, parenting concerns, or support for special needs.
Her approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, offering a non-judgmental space where clients can feel heard and supported while they build insight and resilience. Drawing from decades of direct counseling and leadership within school systems, she combines compassion with clarity to help people move forward toward their goals.
Credentials include a Master’s in Social Work from Hunter College, CUNY, and a background as a Director of Special Services. She is licensed as an LCSW in New Jersey (NJ LCSW 44SC00592900).

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most people.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect in the format that fits their needs and schedule - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to maintain continuity of care.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists at any time if they need a different fit. This accessibility and adaptability make online therapy a practical choice for many seeking support.
