My Approach to Therapy

Therapy is not one size fits all and it definitely is not a person show. It's more of a team effort. I focus on collaborating with clients to identify and work towards their goals. My sessions are compassionate, genuine, and sprinkled with humor at times. It is essential for me to ensure that my sessions are a place where you can feel comfortable discussing even the most sensitive of topics in a judgment free space. My goal is to help you revive and thrive! I am a Columbia University graduate but the best education has been my 17+ years of experience working with clients. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I have worked with various client populations addressing various concerns including life stressors and transitions, grief or loss, depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, managing chronic illness, Bipolar Disorder and more. I'll be using various approaches and interventions depending on your specific needs and preferences. Some common interventions include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Object Relations Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Strengths Based Approach, Family Systems Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy. Sessions can also be provided in Spanish and Portuguese.

Groups I Work With

My experience includes working with a variety of client populations including adults, the elderly, adolescents, and families. I enjoy working with clients from immigrant families addressing the overarching issues of immigration, assimilation, acculturation, and the mental health issues which often accompany these experiences. I have played an integral role in the recent paradigm shift in the primary care and behavioral health systems of NJ by using behavioral health interventions to assist in chronic illness and health management.
