Hi there, I am licensed therapist with a decade of experience in clinical practice with clients. I have a background in cognitive behavioral therapy and I specialized in working with people experiencing interpersonal issues, life transitions, career problems, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, ADHD, as well as trauma.
Welcome! I specialize in evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders, ADHD, Autism, trauma-related concerns, grief, and life transitions. I work with clients across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, first responders, veterans, and families seeking structured support and meaningful change.
I use compassion, warmth, and a touch of humor to help clients feel safe, understood, and at ease during our work together. I also strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore challenges without judgment and reconnect with their strengths.
Therapeutically, I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed practices, psychodynamic approaches, DBT skills, mindfulness, and strengths-based coaching to support clarity, healing, and growth at each client’s pace.
Inspired by the Tibetan Buddhist concept of the Four Immeasurables—happiness, joy, compassion, and equanimity—my practice reflects a commitment to cultivating emotional resilience and deeper wellbeing in everyday life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Red Bank, NJ
Searching for therapists in Red Bank starts with finding someone whose training and specialties match what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare therapists in Red Bank, NJ, look for profiles that clearly describe the therapist’s experience, approach, and focus areas. Some therapists may list approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, which can help you understand how they structure sessions.
Red Bank is a smaller local market, so your nearby in-person options may depend on office location, schedule, and availability across Monmouth County. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond Red Bank while keeping you connected with a New Jersey-licensed therapist. As you narrow your options, consider whether the therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can also show how they communicate, what they specialize in, and what you can expect from a first session.
Therapy in Red Bank can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lets you schedule directly with therapists who are accepting new clients. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, and book when you’re ready.
