Introduction

Hello, and welcome. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Cliffside Park, NJ, and I’m truly grateful you’re taking a step toward caring for your emotional well-being. My path into this work began with a deep interest in how people grow, heal, and create meaning in their lives. Over the years, that interest became a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and confidence. I specialize in supporting adults and adolescents who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship stress, life transitions, and issues related to self-esteem. I also have experience working with clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of their next steps. My approach blends evidence-based techniques with a warm, grounded, and nonjudgmental style. I believe that therapy should feel collaborative and empowering—something we build together based on your goals, your pace, and your unique strengths. My work centers on helping clients create meaningful and lasting change. Whether that means learning new coping skills, breaking old patterns, strengthening relationships, or developing a deeper understanding of yourself, I aim to provide a space where you feel supported, heard, and genuinely cared for. My hope is that our work together not only brings relief, but also helps you move forward with greater resilience and a renewed sense of possibility. If you’re ready to begin, I’m here to help you take the next step.
