Creating a Life Worth Living
My speciality is helping people struggling to find balance and effective ways of coping with emotions and stress. I primarily work with teens & adults with harmful coping behaviors, personality disorders/BPD, self-harm, substance use, mood disorders, anxiety and trauma. I also have a subspecialty in perinatal mental health including during postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, pregnancy, loss and PPD in spouses.
I believe that therapy should be client-centered, non-judgmental and at your pace. I hope to inspire you to make change in your life, work towards your goals, process life events and build useful coping skills. I can help you be in control of your emotions, manage stress without problem behaviors and be present in your life.
I have been primarily utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy for the past 7 years in individual and group settings. I have almost 15 years of experience working in the field of mental health in many different settings & roles.
I received my Masters in Social Work from Rutgers University in 2013 and am independently licensed in NJ, VA, MD, NC & DC. I also provide clinical supervision for pre-licensed clinicians in those states.
