Welcome

The capacity to thrive through adversity is achievable


 How do you share your deepest secrets with someone you don't know? Trust requires vulnerability and the courage to try something different especially when you are hurting. If you have become overwhelmed by fears and restrictions triggered by difficulties that make it hard for you to function in your daily life, you have come to the right place. As a solution-focused New Jersey and New York psychologist, I help adolescents and adults navigate messy life transitions. Incorporating a bio-psycho-social-spiritual approach, I offer individual, group, prevention, strengths-based, and single session therapy to help resolve current challenges and long-standing patterns. With sensitivity and compassion, I will help you find solutions to a wide range of concerns from PTSD to adjustment reactions.

My aim is to heal your pain and immediately improve your quality of life. Whatever you need, I am here for you. Currently, I am holding office hours remotely and in-person. As the situation continues to evolve, I will re-evaluate and update you regarding procedures for communicating. Be sure to check for updates. With tensions high, we need each other more than ever.

Our office celebrates diversity in all its forms across intersections. My style is pragmatic, eclectic, and collaborative: solving problems, instilling hope, encouragement, commitment, unwavering faith, patience, perseverance, and proven techniques to encourage, empower, launch and facilitate triumph and lasting change.

We are most likely to impact the world when the heat is on. If you are anxious about anything or navigating a life transition, contact me. If you are savoring meaning in the midst of chaos, contact me.
