My Approach to Therapy

I take a holistic, mind-body-spirit approach to counseling, focusing on each client's unique needs and strengths. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where healing and self- actualization can occur. As a licensed professional counselor and National Certified Counselor, I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and ages. With a comprehensive toolkit I have mastered throughout the years, I have successfully helped patients to overcome challenges using various treatment approaches. I believe that a crucial step in overcoming life's obstacles is developing a healthy and loving relationship with oneself. I offer services in both English and Spanish.

My Practice & Services

I provide individual therapy for adults in both English and Spanish, offering a compassionate, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients can feel safe exploring life’s challenges, improving emotional well-being, and working toward personal growth. I am licensed in New Jersey and offer both in-person and virtual appointments, with flexible daytime and evening availability to accommodate different schedules and lifestyles. I am in-network with most commercial insurance plans. For patients with insurance plans with which I am not in-network with, if you have out-of-network benefits, we can submit claims on your behalf to help facilitate reimbursement. If your insurance provider issues any out-of-network payment, you will be reimbursed accordingly, up to the amount paid for the visit. For Medicare or Medicaid patients, I can provide a detailed receipt (superbill) for you to submit directly to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. At Total Wellness Center, I also work alongside a team of highly qualified mental health professionals. If my availability does not match your scheduling needs, we will do our best to connect you with another trusted provider whose approach and availability may be a better fit for you. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to do it alone. Please feel free to call or email to schedule a consultation — we would be honored to support you on your journey toward healing and wellness.

Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist

Important factors when choosing a therapist include feeling comfortable and understood, finding someone with experience in your specific concerns, and choosing a therapeutic approach that matches your needs and goals. A strong sense of trust, empathy, cultural understanding, and open communication can also play a major role in creating a positive and effective therapy experience. Please contact us to schedule an appointment and my team will help match you with a therapist whose treatment approach best fits your needs and personality.
