Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Northfield, NJ covered by Cigna

I was an educator for almost 14 years when I began my training in clinical mental health. I initially worked with teens and families in intensive in-home therapy. I transitioned to outpatient where I worked with women and men who had histories of abuse. My training and experience have been predominantly in trauma and grief. I have worked with individuals who suffer from mood disorders as well as personality disorders, particularly those with complex traumas and abuse in their histories.

I strive to create a space that is comfortable, accepting and lighthearted at times. I enjoy creating a therapeutic relationship that involves a direct approach while also being welcoming and open-minded.

I am a very laid-back therapist. I value the therapeutic relationship we build. I view our experience as a travel we go on together to help remove obstacles leading to your chosen goals. This is also your safe place to talk about things you may not feel comfortable talking to with people in your day-to-day life. My approach is to provide a nonjudgmental safe space.

If you're a parent worried about your child, or a young person trying to keep it together — I see you, and I'm here to help.

Maybe your child is melting down in ways you can't explain. Maybe your teen is shutting down, struggling at school, or carrying something heavy that nobody's been able to name yet. Maybe you've tried to get help before and it didn't quite fit. Whatever brought you here, you're not overreacting — and you don't have to keep navigating this alone.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who earned both my BASW and MSW from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, where I received comprehensive training grounded in evidence-based practice, cultural humility, and ethical clinical care. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed a strong foundation in assessing, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of behavioral and mental health concerns.

My areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, working with individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), and trauma-related symptoms. I have extensive experience supporting clients with complex emotional and behavioral needs, helping them develop practical coping strategies, build emotional resilience, and navigate difficult life experiences.

Although a significant portion of my clinical work has focused on providing individual therapy to children, adolescents, and adults, I also have substantial experience facilitating therapeutic work with families and couples. In these settings, I emphasize communication, emotional safety, and collaborative problem-solving to strengthen relational dynamics and promote healthier patterns of interaction.

Across all treatment modalities, I am committed to creating a supportive, nonjudgmental, and culturally responsive environment that honors each client's unique background, strengths, and therapeutic goals.
