- LCSW-R, LCSW
As a licensed therapist in New Jersey and New York, I bring 25 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions. My practice centers on helping clients navigate complex emotional landscapes, with specialized expertise in depression, anxiety, grief, and self-esteem challenges.
I focus on creating compassionate, transformative therapeutic spaces where individuals can explore deep-rooted patterns and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My approach honors each person's unique journey, whether they're confronting social anxiety, workplace stress, relationship transitions, or personal identity challenges.
My clinical work spans diverse areas including issues relating to caregiver support, body image concerns, attachment dynamics, and navigating significant life changes. I'm particularly committed to supporting individuals through complex emotional experiences like separation, loss, grief and anticipatory grief.
I believe in empowering clients to cultivate self-love, improve communication, and build resilience. Together, we'll work collaboratively to understand your experiences, strengthen your emotional toolkit, and move toward more fulfilling, authentic living.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
