Book a therapist or psychiatrist in East Brunswick, NJ covered by United Healthcare

Great to meet you!

Therapy should be a place where you don't have to censor yourself or worry about being judged. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, intimacy and sexual concerns, identity, self-esteem, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, affirming, sex-positive, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and grounded in the belief that therapy should feel collaborative rather than clinical or intimidating. I especially enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, recognize patterns that are no longer serving them, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change in their lives.

Welcome!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 22 years’ experience in the mental health field. I graduated from Columbia University with a MSW & have a BS in Applied Sociology/Social Work from Seattle University. I possess extensive experience working with individuals & couples living with PTSD, Trauma related issues, Grief, Depression, Substance Use, Anxiety, Work Related Issues, & Marital/Relational issues. I utilize a wide range of integrative therapeutic approaches to include solution-focused, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mind-body medicine techniques to meet the unique needs of clients. I am passionate about helping clients through their journey of building the life they desire.

I work with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, or like something in their life needs to change. Many of the people I work with are highly sensitive and introspective; they tend to feel things deeply, think deeply, and sometimes have a hard time knowing what to do with everything they’re carrying.

I also specialize in helping people navigate psychedelic experiences, spiritual emergence, and other non-ordinary experiences that may be meaningful, confusing, or difficult to integrate.

My background is in transpersonal and somatic psychology, with additional training in trauma-informed care, breathwork, psychedelic integration, and spiritual emergencies.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. My priority is to help you achieve wellbeing in your relational, emotional, and mental health. I look forward to connecting with you on your goals for therapy, and how we can achieve them together!

I provide support to adults , children, adolescents and young adults through various challenges and transitions in life including trauma, anxiety, depression, adjustment challenges, substance use, codependency, attachment disorders, Dual diagnosis, relationship difficulties and family dynamics.

Do you often feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain? Life's challenges and transitions can leave us feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of the next step. You don't have to face them alone.

I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel safe, heard, and genuinely understood. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Together, we'll identify patterns that may be holding you back, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical coping strategies that support lasting growth. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, self-esteem, or major life transitions, my goal is to help you gain clarity, build resilience, strengthen confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Healing isn't about becoming someone different—it's about reconnecting with the person you are and creating a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values. I would be honored to support you on that journey.

I help clients become less anxious and more confident. I also help clients navigate complex relationships in their families, romantic life, and friendships.
