Therapy can be defined as anything that is done that moves a client toward health and wholeness. Healing requires movement. So, first, we’ll collaborate and determine how you’re stuck in your life. As human beings, we reach out to others for assistance when we’re frustrated and can’t see any options for ourselves in a particular situation. At that point, we’re feeling stuck...with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviors, with feelings that we don’t know how to process, or with a partner or job that’s unfulfilling.
Being or feeling stuck is the last place you want to be. Life is about movement...whether it’s backwards, forwards, up or down. Any kind of movement gets you unstuck and involved in the healing process.
Therapy helps you get unstuck and helps you discern and make conscious choices regarding a course of action.
I use a variety of treatment modalities to help you reach your goals depending on your openness and preferences. These include cognitive behavioral therapy, insight oriented therapy, hypnotherapy and past life regression. Together we decide which treatment option is best suited to meet your needs. Sometimes it's one of these options exclusively, other times, it's a combination of modalities.
My style is warm and collaborative. I'm active in sessions and give clients feedback. One of my goals is to give you something to think about in between sessions.
My post graduate degree from Seton Hall is an Ed.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy. I also have a Th.M. in Pastoral Care and Counseling from Princeton Seminary and a M.Div. from the Lutheran Seminary in Philadelphia.
If you have unproductive behaviors, fears, stress or relationship problems, therapy helps. The first move is to reach out for assistance.
I have 31 years of nursing experience and specialize in the evaluation and treatment of mental health conditions, including postpartum depression. I also treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD and OCD. I started out in maternity and pediatrics as my nursing career and then went back to school for my masters, PMHNP certification and doctoral degree. I have also taught nursing students in undergraduate and graduate curriculums. I believe meaningful healing starts with being truly heard. I take a holistic, collaborative approach to care—working with you to understand the root causes of your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan that supports your overall well-being, looking at medications and holistic measures such as diet and supplements in order to heal. Some of the most important nutrients essential for brain health include Vitamin B12, Vitamin B6, Vitamin D Vitamin A Folate and Protein. Treatment includes evidence-based medications, therapy, supplements, and nutrition management tailored to your unique needs, culture, goals, and comfort level. I believe in managing your gut health can manage your brain health and provide you to be a better healthier person inside out. Treatment plans are individualized, collaborative, and focused on restoring stability, functioning, and overall well-being.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Union
Searching for therapists in Union starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
In a smaller city like Union, local therapist availability may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still helping you find a therapist licensed in New Jersey. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before you book can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and approach to care.
Therapy in Union 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 search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see your estimated cost before booking. You can review therapist bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
