Where an atmosphere of non-judgement exists, lies comfort for one to explore themselves. Mindfulness-based, CBT best describes my style. I value open-mindedness and also feel it is important to address how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. Training and education in Community Mental Health from Wilmington University launched a two decade long mission for me to explore the field of psychology and help others to optimize the quality of their life.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate, evidence-based, and stigma-free care to support healing and lasting growth. With a background in emergency and trauma care, I take a collaborative, holistic approach that considers the connection between mind and body. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, and mood disorders through a personalized combination of psychotherapy, medication management, and lifestyle support. My goal is to help you feel heard, empowered, and supported every step of the way, at a pace that feels right for you.
I have my Masters in Psychology from New York University and am Nationally Board Certified as a counselor. Currently taking clients in New Jersey, Nevada and Delaware.
I have experience with a diverse population of clients, and extensive experience working with emerging adults (18-25), couples, families and adults of all ages and backgrounds. In addition, I also have experience with creative professionals in music/art fields, working with Backline Care.
I have over 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy across a wide range of settings, including acute and non-acute mental health, residential treatment, and outpatient care. Throughout my career, I've worked with adults, adolescents, individuals, and couples facing everything from everyday life stressors to more complex emotional and psychological challenges.
While I work with a broad range of concerns, I have particular interests in relationship counseling using the Gottman Method, chronic pain utilizing Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), addiction, borderline personality disorder using DBT, and anxiety-related disorders. I also frequently help clients navigate life transitions, relationship difficulties, parenting, work stress, panic, and general emotional well-being.
One thing that deeply shapes my work is a genuine curiosity about the human condition. I believe every person's story makes sense when we take the time to understand it. Rather than viewing people through the lens of a diagnosis alone, I strive to understand the experiences, relationships, beliefs, and circumstances that have shaped who they are. I see therapy as a collaborative process of exploration, insight, and meaningful change.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Human Services with a concentration in Mental Health Counseling from Springfield College, earned in 2014. This advanced training provides the foundation for my clinical expertise and commitment to ongoing professional development.
I believe in client-centered care and the power of therapeutic connection. My goal is to guide clients toward greater mental and emotional well-being, empowering them to overcome adversity and lead fulfilling lives. With compassion and expertise, I am committed to making a positive impact in the lives of those I serve.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Newark
Searching for postpartum therapists in Newark starts with finding someone who has experience with the concerns that can come up during and after pregnancy. Postpartum care can support people with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist with perinatal experience or a PMH-C credential may have specialized training in maternal mental health care.
In a smaller city like Newark, local in-person options may be more limited, so virtual therapy can help expand your search. This can be especially practical when your schedule changes often, you are coordinating infant care, or you are recovering physically. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns.
Therapy in Newark can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who match your needs, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage and see an estimated cost before you book. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
