Do you often notice that you have self-critical thoughts and beliefs? Do you have past experiences or traumas that may be hindering your ability to practice self-compassion? Feelings are sometimes hard to explain and even harder to deal with. Understanding why you feel a certain way can help you regain control over yourself and how you respond. My passion is helping those struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Westfield, NJ, with a practice that blends individual therapy, couples work, and executive coaching. My approach draws on both clinical training and coaching credentials, which means I can hold space for deep emotional work while also helping clients move toward concrete goals — whether that's healing from anxiety, navigating a relationship, or figuring out what's next in their career or life. I specialize in working with high-achieving women who look put-together on the outside but are quietly struggling on the inside — the ones juggling career, family, and self-worth, often for the first time asking "what do I actually need?" My style is warm but direct: I won't just nod along, I'll name what I'm noticing and challenge you to look at it. If you're ready to stop just managing and start actually feeling better, I'd love to work together.

I have worked in areas of substance abuse, mental health and with children and families. I am compassionate and assess each client's needs and personal goals.
