Therapist

I have been a Social Worker for over 17 years. I have been trained and certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy from The Beck Institute in Philadelphia, PA and Marriage and Family Therapy from the Multicultural Family Institute in Highland Park, NJ. I have also been trained in Exposure and Response Prevention to treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I am trained and utilize many other modalities such as guided meditations, sound vibration and energy healing, and emotional freedom technique ("tapping"). I truly believe everyone grows and heals their own way and there is not one perfect formula for anyone.


I believe that we have all the answers inside us and ultimately are our best guides. I look at counseling and therapy as a way to connect you to yourself, so you can begin to heal and trust your own inner wisdom.


When I work with clients I come from a place of no judgement. In our sessions you will feel a safe space to open up and share what you are struggling with. I feel that under all of our pain, shame, guilt and sadness is our REAL selves and working together we can see where all the beliefs came from and start to find your way back to your true self.

Therapist

I'm a licensed clinical social worker based in Maplewood, NJ and the founder of canyons therapy. I can see clients who live in New Jersey, Texas, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. I am a recovering perfectionist, anxious mom, and lover of a slow-paced life. In session, you will find me casually dressed, warm beverage in-hand, and ready to hold space for your most imperfect self. Outside of session, I’m wrangling my young kids and doing my best to embrace our chaos. I enjoy being in nature, watching the latest documentary, and curating mood-setting playlists.

"It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure." Joseph Campbell

We all stumble. Life presents challenges. It takes great courage to connect with a new therapist. I welcome you to this experience. As a psychologist and a registered nurse (ret) I have helped with many forms of difficulty. In practice for over 3 decades, I have learned what works and what doesn't. I match your style and strengths with the change you desire. I have been fortunate to study with educational leaders. My experiences in medical, psychiatric and emergency settings taught me a wide range of interventions that can be helpful.

Let's find your treasure. Give me a call for a free consultation to see if we're a match.

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


Hello and thank you for taking a moment to get to know me! I’m a dedicated therapist with extensive experience across the lifespan, working with clients as young as toddlers to older adults well into their 90s. I hold a master’s in clinical counseling and mental health and am advancing my training in a PhD program in Psychology. My clinical journey spans all levels of care from inpatient settings to outpatient therapy where I have supported individuals, couples, and families through a wide range of mental health and substance use challenges. I specialize in working with complex diagnoses and am deeply committed to addressing difficult issues rather than avoiding them. I bring a holistic approach as an individual, family, and couples’ therapist, creating a compassionate and empowering space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I have worked extensively with mental health, trauma, relationship dynamics, and substance use, always striving to help clients build resilience, regain confidence, and reconnect with themselves and loved ones. My aim is to promote lasting change by helping clients challenge unhelpful patterns, strengthen emotional connections, and reclaim agency in their lives. I’m honored to walk alongside each person and family on their unique path toward healing and growth.
