About

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and Licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor (LCADC) in the state of New Jersey with 13 years experience in the field. I was educated at Georgian Court University for both my undergraduate and Master's degrees and specialize in the treatment of mood disorders, substance use disorders, trauma, self-harm, suicidal ideations, dissociative identity disorder, and issues unique to the LGBTQ community and women. I take a client-centered approach to counseling & work to provide a safe, non-judgmental, & validating environment to build trust with my client’s & to foster our therapeutic relationship. I believe that life is a balance of acceptance & change & I work with my clients to explore areas of their lives causing them difficulty & to find balance between the processes of acceptance & the change necessary to foster improvements in one’s life. I can help the client explore the complexities of this balance & teach & provide the skills necessary to enact these changes.
I commend you for taking the first steps in your process of growth and recovery by coming on the site and seeking help with changes you feel are necessary in your life. I invite you to reach out and discuss how I can help you feel better, achieve your goals, and attain serenity and balance in your life. Thank you and be well.
