About My Clients
I have a strong interest in promoting body positivity and helping those who struggle with eating disorders. I have found that working with co-occurring mood disorders such as anxiety and depression, and challenging dysfunctional thoughts specific to food, weight, and evaluation of self, has proven to be most effective. Hearing clients’ stories that have influenced their mental health has given rise to a more recent interest in treating those suffering from traumatic pasts.
My Background and Approach
As a Licensed Associate Counselor in the state of New Jersey, it is my job to collaborate with clients in discovering practical tools that they can utilize to effectively manage their symptoms, outside of therapy. I help clients to strengthen their sense of resiliency, knowing that they have the power to choose to use the skills discussed in sessions to better their lives. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults and help them to better understand their issues and the factors maintaining them; this awareness helps my clients to regain control and live more fulfilling and joyous lives. I help my clients to see that their past does not define their future, as well as strengthen their willingness to accept current circumstances so that they can live more presently, each day. As a therapist, I am here to validate my clients’ feelings and provide them with a safe space where they can feel comfortable allowing themselves to open up about their past experiences.

If you are ready to take control of your life but aren’t quite sure how, I can provide you with the resources to do so. From personal experience, I know how hard it can be to balance the many demands of everyday life, especially when one is struggling with their mental health. I hear you, I support you, and I accept you; together, we can help you to get through whatever challenges you are facing.
