I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of New York and New Jersey with an extensive background in mental health as an inpatient psychiatric social worker and a therapist in private practice. These settings has afforded me the opportunity to work with adults across the life span as they face a multitude of challenges. In my private practice I work with adults navigating the stressors of every day life such as work, relationships, and transitional periods. In addition I work with adults seeking a greater sense of self, enhance coping skills, improve communications skills, and build confidence.
Hi, I'm Michael. I work with men, couples, families, and adolescents in New Jersey navigating addiction, relationship strain, and the stress that starts to run the whole day. Eight years in have taught me one thing: you already have more capacity for change than you realize. I bring warmth and a solution-focused, eclectic approach.
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 have been an LCSW for over 15 years, and anxiety is where I do my deepest work..the racing thoughts, the physical tension, the constant "what if" that won't quiet down. I also work with clients navigating depression, major life changes, grief and divorce. But if anxiety is running the show in your life, that is exactly where I want to start.
Welcome. I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I believe therapy should be a space where you feel safe, seen, and understood. My goal is to provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences at your own pace.
I work with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Many of my clients are people who have spent years caring for others while neglecting their own needs and are now ready to begin prioritizing their healing and personal growth.
My approach is integrative and personalized because I believe every person’s story and healing journey is unique. I incorporate supportive therapy, trauma-focused care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy to help clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping strategies, and move toward meaningful and lasting change.
Together, we will work to identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process painful experiences with care and intention, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with your strengths and sense of self. I believe healing happens not only through insight, but also through feeling empowered, supported, and genuinely accepted.
Whether you are navigating a difficult season of life or seeking deeper self-understanding and growth, I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and balance.
My love for Social Work comes from personal life experiences and wanting to help people see the beauty in life again.
I attended Lebanon Valley College and obtained my Bachelors in Psychology and then I graduated from Monmouth University with my Masters in Social Work. I have been in the field for 5 years and continue to expand my knowledge. I have experience with both mental health and addiction, spending the first part of my career in in-patient. I currently work full time for an Outpatient mental health and substance abuse clinic helping a very focused and specific population.
Everyone needs help sometimes, and I am here to listen.
I am passionate and empathetic and I believe in always giving that to my clients.
I have a vast background in social work as an NYU graduate. Beginning with early intervention and ABA therapy all throughout Manhattan and growing into the Jewish Board of Child and Family Therapy learning CBT, family, group and couples therapy. Practicing for over 20 years with CBT and IFS modalities as I find them to be the most effective, compassionate and straightforward approach to getting to know the self with a kind lens. Our society wants us to be in resistance to ourselves and we get to take a look at how that impacts us together. There is nothing wrong with your feelings, it is how they were treated that was wrong.
I believe in providing a safe, supportive space for individuals seeking growth, healing, and clarity. My approach is collaborative and grounded in genuine connection—I believe real change happens when you feel truly seen and understood. Whether you’re navigating stress, relationships, or major life transitions, we’ll work together to help you build the tools and confidence to move forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fairfield
Searching for therapists in Fairfield starts with finding a therapist whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Fairfield therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and populations served in each profile. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that fit your needs.
Fairfield is a smaller community, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. When comparing options for therapy in Fairfield, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and approach to care.
Therapy in Fairfield can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more accessible. Headway helps you find a Fairfield therapist who accepts your plan, offers upfront cost estimates, and can be booked directly. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book when you’re ready.
