I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing challenges in relationships (such as w/ a partner, friends, family or coworkers); LGBTQIA+ clients; and clients who are moving through life changes or transitions. Whether you’re navigating emerging adulthood and "adulting" for the first time, redefining a relationship, grieving a loss, questioning your sexuality, coming out, adjusting to an empty nest, exploring spirituality, or learning how to show up in life as your true authentic self, I am here to walk beside you on your journey!

Hello! My name is Gwendolyn or "Gwen" is fine.

I received my graduate degree and licensure from Rider University in community counseling. I have almost two decades of experience in individual, couples, family and group therapy. My specialties include domestic violence, sexual violence, bereavement and other traumas. I am New Jersey State certified in domestic violence and sexual violence. I'm not exclusive to treating trauma since most of my clients are coming in with different issues. Most of my clients are just dealing with life issues. I welcome all diverse clients. I find that I learn most from my clients.

My therapeutic style is to ask a lot of questions and really try to find the answers to what is bothering you. In our sessions, you will cry, laugh, talk excessively or talk a little. Our sessions will be all about you and what you need in the moment. I want our sessions to be a safe place for you to be comfortable. Bring your treats and your tissues. Bring your patience and your strength. We will be together and I will support you when you are feeling weak. Usually, I see what makes you special first. You will need to tell me what is wrong.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor with 40 years of clinical experience. I work with adults, children, and adolescents, and I value each person’s cultural background, identity, and lived experience.

I earned my bachelor's in Psychology at Smith College and my master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Rowan University. I believe in tailoring my clients' experience to their likes and needs.

Do you often feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain? Life's challenges and transitions can leave us feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of the next step. You don't have to face them alone.

I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel safe, heard, and genuinely understood. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Together, we'll identify patterns that may be holding you back, build on your existing strengths, and develop practical coping strategies that support lasting growth. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, self-esteem, or major life transitions, my goal is to help you gain clarity, build resilience, strengthen confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Healing isn't about becoming someone different—it's about reconnecting with the person you are and creating a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values. I would be honored to support you on that journey.
