Hi, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a heart for supporting individuals through the transformative journey of parenthood. Specializing in perinatal mental health, I provide compassionate, bilingual therapy to help you navigate the emotional highs and lows of pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond. With a degree from Rutgers University and years of experience working with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, I understand that every journey is unique.
My approach is warm, empowering, and always centered on meeting you exactly where you are. Together, we’ll create a space for healing, growth, and renewed strength.
Welcome to Mateh Behavioral Health & Wellness. I am a doctoral-prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner committed to providing compassionate, personalized, and evidence-based mental health care in a safe and supportive environment. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma, and other behavioral health concerns across the lifespan, with a special passion for women’s mental health and wellness, including perinatal/postpartum care, hormonal mood changes, and holistic emotional wellbeing. My approach combines expert medication management, supportive therapy, and whole-person wellness strategies—empowering every client to feel heard, valued, and confident on their journey toward healing and lasting wellness.
I have a strong personal connection to nature, which I believe can be a powerful tool for healing. I enjoy spending time outdoors, camping, hiking, surfing, and even farming—which allows me to maintain a sense of balance and peace.
Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.
In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.
I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Forked River
Searching for therapists in Forked River starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or support for specific life stages. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from working together.
In a smaller community like Forked River, the number of nearby therapists may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still allowing you to work with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and practical fit.
Therapy in Forked River can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
