I have over 30 years experience in the field of mental health. I specialize in trauma, grief and Womens challenges. I am constantly learning new and evidenced based ways to help my clients.
Hi there! Each of us navigates life uniquely, and you possess the greatest expertise in your own journey. I believe in the power of a client-centered approach, where together, we will explore your strengths, values, and aspirations. My mission is to be a dedicated partner on your path towards self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.
After many years in the field as a LCSW, I went back to earn my Doctor of Social Work to better support my clients' needs, in both clinical and scholarly efforts.
I am committed to providing a safe, supportive space for healing and growth. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with trauma-focused training, I bring a compassionate, strengths-based approach tailored to each client’s unique journey. I value authenticity, patience, and resilience, working collaboratively to achieve your goals. Above all, you are not alone, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
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.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Trenton, NJ
Searching for therapists in Trenton starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for someone whose listed specialties and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what to expect in sessions.
In a smaller city like Trenton, your local options may depend on office location, schedule, and current availability. Virtual appointments can expand your search across New Jersey while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near Trenton neighborhoods like Downtown, Chambersburg, or Old Mill Hill, or virtual sessions that fit your calendar. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, communication style, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Trenton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
