My Approach to Helping
Deciding to seek professional mental health care can be scary. However, therapy can be an incredibly rewarding experience. I offer a safe, trusting, relaxing environment where we can work together to overcome your obstacles to improved physical and mental health.
I utilize a variety of evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), reality therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), play therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), solution-focused therapy, family systems therapy, person-centered therapy, and motivational interviewing. My therapeutic approach is flexible and tailored to my clients’ unique needs so they can improve their lives and their relationships.
More Info About My Practice
I earned a bachelor’s degree in communication studies from Rowan University and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Georgian Court University. I provide mental health services to children, teenagers, adults, and the elderly in individual, family, and group settings. I have helped people overcome a number of adverse issues such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, addiction, phobias, self-image issues, weight issues, and behavioral challenges. I also provide care to families and couples with a loved one who is experiencing poor mental health or substance abuse.
In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, playing sports, spending time with my family and friends, and running the boardwalk.
