You don’t have to carry it all alone! I strive to create a safe space for you to share your concerns, hopes, and goals. I work with adult clients struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, career, relationships, addictions, compulsions, among other issues. I received my Master of Science in Counseling from Southern Methodist University. The majority of my career has been in finance, where I have worked as a financial advisor. I was born and raised in Texas and I have a deep understanding of various cultures and religions. I enjoy sports, music, and spending time with loved ones.
I want to hear your story and how your beliefs shape your thoughts which lead to your actions. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you break unwanted loops. I also find value in Adlerian principles of finding one's place and creating valuable social connections and relationships.
Finding the right therapist is a personal journey, and I believe it's important that you feel understood, supported, and empowered from the very start.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Providence
Searching for therapists in New Providence starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match what you want to address. Provider profiles can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
New Providence is a smaller market, so the number of nearby in-person therapists may be more limited than in larger New Jersey cities. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in New Jersey. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios before booking can also show how a therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in New Providence can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare therapists who match your needs. You can browse profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
