Introduction

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re facing anxiety, parenting challenges, relationship struggles, family conflict, or major life transitions. Therapy can provide a supportive space to gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, and educator with more than 30 years of experience, I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families, and older adults. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, parenting concerns, behavioral challenges, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, EFT, Play Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy to help clients recognize patterns, build practical skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward lasting emotional wellness. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and encouraged as you work toward greater confidence, insight, and hope. Services are available in New Jersey and Florida and through telehealth.
