LSW
Licensed Social Worker
Background. I obtained my Master of Arts in Social Work from Rutgers School of Social Work. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in intensive outpatient treatment settings. In this settings, I have provided individual, group, and family sessions.
Credentials and Licensing. I am a Licensed Social Worker in New Jersey. I am under the supervision of Colleen Evans, LCSW-S, LCADC, CDP, ACHP-SW.
Areas of passion and specialty. Everyone deserves a chance at healing, and I believe that therapy should be a safe space where you can show up exactly as you are. In our work together, clients of all ages will find a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where their thoughts and feelings are valued. I recognize that opening up and being vulnerable can feel scary, and I’m here to offer guidance and support along the way. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or a just a general desire to understand yourself better, my goal is to help you navigate through the complexities of your emotions and experiences.
Approach. I like to incorporate a person-centered approach with a focus on DBT and CBT skills into practice. Together, we will create a therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect, empowering you to grow and heal from whatever you are currently facing.
