I work with people across the full lifespan — children as young as 9, teenagers navigating identity and pressure, adults in transition, and seniors facing loss or life change. I'm a New Jersey-licensed LPC providing telehealth only, which means you can access quality care from wherever you feel most comfortable — your living room, your car between meetings, wherever works for you.

My practice is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and for clients who value their faith, I can integrate spiritual reflection into our work in a way that feels natural and grounded — never pressured. I accept most major NJ insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Horizon NJ, AmeriHealth NJ, Carelon, and Optum, so cost is rarely the barrier it might be elsewhere.

Hello, I am glad you are here. Taking the first step towards your mental health is a big step, and I want you to know that you will be welcome with kindness, understanding, and zero judgment.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a unique background. Before becoming a provider, I spent 9 years as a registered nurse working closely with people experiencing mental health challenges. That experience taught me the importance of listening, understanding each person’s story, and treating the whole person not just the diagnosis. I earned my degree from Walden University and provide care for adolescents and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and bipolar disorder. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard, supported, and involved in your care.
