How do we make sense of our stuff? This is a critical question. Life can be challenging and sometimes we can’t understand what we are experiencing and why. Much of our ability to overcome adversity originates from our mindset- how we process our experiences. It is the lens through which we view our reality.
Essentially, what contributes to our overall well-being is not necessarily the absence of setbacks but rather how we respond to these experiences. Our ability to accept our challenges, to make meaning out of them, to understand how they serve us, is necessary for our personal growth. I work with my clients to help them shift their mindset and to find meaning in all of life’s experiences.
I have been a been a practicing Social Worker for twenty years. I hold a Ph.D. in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I also have extensive experience with Trauma Informed Care as well as grief and bereavement work. I partner with my clients to determine which approach might be most meaningful to them.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with nearly two decades of experience supporting individuals and families through behavioral health and substance use challenges. My approach is grounded in trauma‐informed care, cultural sensitivity, and meeting people exactly where they are. I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment.
I completed my Master of Science in Nursing at Monmouth University and have worked across inpatient, outpatient, community, and addiction treatment settings. My background includes detox and MAT services, crisis stabilization, care coordination, and leading interdisciplinary teams. I also serve as a clinical instructor for BSN students, which keeps me connected to education, mentorship, and the next generation of nurses.

I believe therapy works best when you can be yourself, and that starts with me being myself. My style is warm, conversational, and down-to-earth. I don't believe therapy has to feel formal or intimidating. Instead, I see it as a genuine conversation with purpose, where we work together to better understand what's happening in your life and identify meaningful ways forward.
I also believe that change rarely happens in a straight line. Progress often includes unexpected turns, setbacks, and moments of insight. Rather than focusing on perfection, we'll work to understand patterns, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that fit your life.
My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable asking difficult questions, exploring challenges honestly, and even finding moments of humor along the way. Therapy doesn't have to feel like you're being analyzed. It should feel like you're working with someone who is genuinely invested in helping you make sense of your experiences and move toward the life you want.
