Specialties

Addiction - You don't have to have hit rock bottom to deserve help. Whether you're sober-curious, questioning your relationship with alcohol, or ready to stop using substances as your main way of coping, this is a judgment-free space with real clinical depth, backed by my licensure as a certified addiction counselor (LCADC).

Anxiety - The worry that won't turn off. The tension you've stopped noticing because it's always there. The 3am thoughts that make no sense in daylight. I don't just help you manage anxiety, we figure out where it's coming from and actually move the needle so you're not coping with this forever.

Depression - Depression doesn't always look like sadness. Sometimes it looks like flatness, exhaustion, going through the motions, or a quiet sense that the life you're living doesn't feel like yours anymore. We don't just treat the symptoms, we get to what's underneath them.

Divorce & separation - Divorce is a loss even when you wanted it, and it deserves real support, not just survival mode. Whether you're in the thick of it or trying to rebuild after, I help you navigate the grief, the identity shift, and the question of who you're becoming on the other side.

Relationship issues - This is individual therapy, not couples work. It's your space to understand why you keep ending up in the same dynamics, what you actually need from the people in your life, and what it would take to stop repeating the patterns that keep costing you.

Trauma - Trauma doesn't always come from one dramatic event, sometimes it's years of accumulated wounds that quietly rewired how you move through the world. I've worked with the most complex trauma presentations in NJ's psychiatric hospitals, and I can hold whatever you bring in without flinching.
