Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Hello there! Are you navigating a major life transition and feeling like your mind, body, and spirit are all trying to catch up? Maybe you’re in the thick of perimenopause, a divorce, a new job—or all three at once. Or maybe you're experiencing burn out? You may look like you’re holding it together on the outside, but inside you feel tired, anxious, and are craving a deeper healing than just a simple prescription.

My practice is designed for adult women and children in New Jersey. I love to work with people who are ready to feel heard, supported, and treated as a whole person; promoting care that sees the full person, not just the symptoms.

I am passionate about working with people who are open to getting to know themselves better, or getting to know themselves at all, or again! If you’ve been dismissed or overlooked before, I want you to know that this space is different. Here, your process matters. Your story matters. And together, we’ll move toward something more grounded, more peaceful, and more you. If you’re ready to feel like yourself again or meet yourself for the first time, reach out—I’d love to support you!

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Finding a new therapist is hard. Finding that person with whom you can “click” is not an easy task but your effort to do so has the potential to be transformational for you.


I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been working with individuals and couples for almost ten years. I have helped people working though issues including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.


I believe that trust and honesty are the foundation to the helping relationship. I am also trainings in EMDR and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and strive to offer current evidence-based interventions to help my clients heal.


I most of all believe that having respect for my clients and their concerns is at the heart of creating trust. Having a place to feel heard, understood without judgement can be freeing in and of itself. So whether you have depression, childhood trauma or even combat related trauma I hope you will reach out for a consultation to see if we do “click”.
