Family therapy and counseling in Newark, NJ

Are you seeking a deeper sense of satisfaction in your life? Do conflicted feelings often stand in the way of your happiness? With many years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges and cultivating greater well-being.

A significant aspect of my practice involves Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a specialty that focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns and behaviors. I believe in providing practical solutions that can be readily applied to the challenges of everyday life, empowering you to make tangible progress.

My approach centers on building upon your inherent strengths while exploring new perspectives on existing challenges. Having earned my degree from the esteemed Wurzweiler School of Social Work, I bring a depth of knowledge and a compassionate perspective to my practice. I work collaboratively with clients to explore their struggles and develop effective strategies for lasting positive change.

What if improving your relationships isn’t starting together, but starting with you? As a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with individuals who are curious about their relationship patterns and ready to create meaningful change from the inside out. You may feel stuck in recurring dynamics, find yourself questioning how your family background shapes your relationships, or want to communicate more effectively. Together, we create a space to gain clarity, better understand what’s driving these patterns, and begin making intentional shifts toward healthier, more balanced relationships.

I believe in holistic and evidence based care. I support people of all ages who are navigating anxiety and depression, including children, teens, adults, and older adults. My role is to guide, support, and collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, beliefs, culture, and preferences. I want you to feel heard, respected, and understood-not reduced to a diagnosis. Together, we can make space for what is difficult and build a path toward steadiness, clarity, and meaningful change, at a pace that feels right for you. You do not need to have answers before reaching out; we can begin where you are.

I'm a Georgia Peach with a New Jersey Swag. I am from Newark, New Jersey but I lived in Georgia for about 15yrs. I have that southern touch along with that New Jersey toughness. I love helping people obtain their goals in life. I have been in the field of counseling for over20yrs. I know counseling works because I've personally tried it. Counseling is my 2nd career in life and my combination of education and life experiences tends to be a great match for helping others.

Adulthood can be an exciting time of growth and independence, but it can also come with overwhelming pressure, anxiety, self-doubt, relationship challenges, and uncertainty about the future.
