Accepting new clients. Are you struggling to cope with anxiety and stress? Let me help you achieve positive and transformative change in your life. My client-centered, strength-based, and solution-focused therapy approach empowers you to take control of your life. By combining mindfulness practices with traditional counseling and holistic wellness, I create a calming and safe environment for you to discuss challenging issues that ensure that you feel heard and understood every step of the way.

Providing a supportive and compasionate environment, we focus on identifying the underlying factors to your problems/symptoms. We collaboratively establish clear goals and a plan to address the issues, thus leading to a happier, more productive life. I provide individual, couples, and family psychotherapy to children, adolescents, and adults. We will work together to determine if short or longer term treatment is best for you. I am a psychodynamically oriented clinician and also incorporate a Cognitive-Behavioral approach as well.

I am an agender, queer, abolitionist therapist. I believe that transformation is possible for everyone, healing can begin anywhere, and that no one is disposable. Only practicing with clients in within (the colonial borders of) New Jersey. My approach is primarily informed by somatic practices for trauma healing. This means that we will work with your thoughts, emotions, memories, and physical form/sensations to release unprocessed stress and/or trauma.

Perhaps you notice that your relationships -- be it with your family, partner, job-- play out in similar ways again and again, or that the same activities that once brought you pleasure now feel like a burden. It might be a very specific issue or crisis that brings you to therapy, but just as often it's a vague feeling of loss, anguish, or frustration with yourself and the world around you.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS across the U.S. (Psypact states). Life can get stressful and hard at times, so can navigating societal, work, and family issues especially if you’re a person of color, immigrant, child of immigrants or LGBTQIA. Life transitions also require us to accept change but sometimes that may be hard and we can feel “stuck”. My priority is to help you achieve YOUR goals in a way that resonates with who you are, your beliefs, and with your values. I have extensive years of clinical, research, and assessment experience and will provide evidence-based treatment in a supportive, accepting, and collaborative relationship.

Therapy can be transformative by providing you with the support and care that you need. Together we will work to understand your story to shed light on the thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that are causing you distress. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with racial identity, assimilation, disordered eating, anxiety, depression, trauma, and family conflict. I also have experience in working with individuals of the LGBTQ+ community surrounding queer identity formation and coming out.

Therapy should be a collaboration to help you meet your personal goals and cope with whatever challenges you are facing. Everyone has innate strengths and talents that he or she can use (and has used in the past, whether or not he or she is aware of it) to manage and resolve problems. In hearing clients' stories, I am always listening for these natural strengths in order to explore how they can be used to cope with current stressors.

Contact me if you are struggling with relationship difficulties, sex, sexuality concerns, trauma, losses of loved ones, ADHD, depression or anxiety. I will help you better understand and accept yourself, and use your own insights and strengths to change and grow. I am also passionate about working with individuals, families and groups with cross-cultural/immigration background. Coming to United States as an international student myself, I deeply understand the challenges in the international community, the painful process of loss and separation from home countries, and difficulties to fit in due to language and cultural barriers.

Your teen is going through a difficult time in their life. Teenage years are filled with self doubt, questioning identity, anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, relationship problems, family conflict, and school difficulties. A lot of teens keep their feelings and issues inside. It is normal for them to start to share less with their parents. Therapy can help your teen to open up to a professional about the issues they are experiencing and to process their feelings better so that they can feel their best. As a teen therapist, I build rapport rapidly with teens and they enjoy having a safe place to talk about their problems.

As a child psychologist I work with many children who struggle with a variety of emotional and behavioral challenges. It is vital to address these challenges early in a child’s development and to provide individualized treatment, tailored to the needs of the child and the family. Therapy will offer your child the opportunity to express their concerns, understand their emotions, and develop coping skills. In my work with adolescents I aim to help them to find balance between their emerging independence and their ongoing reliance on the adults in their lives.

Acknowledging that your child may need help outside of you can be difficult. You have already overcome that hurdle. Now let's help you find the perfect fit for you and your family's needs. My therapeutic style is person- centered focusing on meeting your child or teen where they are, and helping them understand themselves better and identify and communicate their feelings.

I've been working with women and men to improve their lives for over twenty years. I began working with adolescents and young adults in an inpatient psychiatric environment and have expanded to include work in outpatient psychiatry and counseling, research, training and professional development. I received my MS in Social Work from Columbia University and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both New Jersey and New York. I have completed over ten years of supervised psychotherapy experience at Beth Israel Medical Center and Washington Square Institute. In my Hoboken Psychotherapy practice, I specialize in working with adults to maximize their potential.

I am a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist and Psychotherapist that provides each of my clients with a highly-individualized, curated, holistic experience that is goal-oriented. I utilize different modalities that encompass art therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and meditation. I have experience working with a diverse caseload of clients that include children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Each client is unique and therefore, my treatment methodology for each client I serve, is unique.

Do you struggle with worrisome thoughts throughout the day? Do you feel you need a change but don’t know how or where to start? You are not alone. Anxiety, depression and obsessive thoughts are very common and most of us need help in managing life’s stressors. I am here to support you in achieving well-being through effective coping skills. I am experienced in working with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds struggling with mental health challenges including anxiety, depression and OCD. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, utilizing various modalities to fit clients’ goals.

I have been a licensed psychotherapist for sixteen years, and I consider it an honor to do the work of psychotherapy, helping clients to navigate the turbulence of life. I will work with you in a collaborative, non-judgmental and compassionate manner. I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can talk openly, and I will help you to change any thoughts or behaviors that are distressing. I blend elements from several cognitive, solution focused and insight-oriented approaches to tailor the treatment to each client's individual needs.

I help people develop an authentic, integrated, and joyful sense of self. I specialize in trauma recovery, identity issues, gender & sexuality, and spirituality. I have worked extensively with survivors of childhood abuse and neglect, and know that people with these experiences can heal and grow, creating healthy meaningful lives that feel good. As a bicultural person of color, I am also well-versed in helping people navigate the complexities (and richness) of identity, culture, family, race, and belonging. In all my work, my goal is to help people feel grounded, self-accepting and free.

My goal of working with you is to assist you in navigating difficulties, issues, and problems within your life that you would like to address in a supportive and empathic manner. I work specifically with adolescents, young adults, and adults. I treat clients for an array of quality of life issues including: depression, anxiety, work related stress, grief and loss, and family conflict. Further, I am here to create a safe space to work on past trauma and other issues that are impacting your life. I believe that you know yourself better than anyone and I am here to listen and to join you on this journey.

Therapy shouldn't be an expensive luxury. I accept many commercial in-network insurances. More than ever, with the recovery from a pandemic, inflation, and lifestyle changes, there is an increase in anxiety, depressed mood, social fears and worry about the future and unknowns. Therefore, therapy is more of a necessity for many of us.
