THERAPY FOR ADULTS IN NJ & CT

It’s time to take care of you

Support that meets you where you are — and helps you move forward

You Might Be Here Because…

You feel exhausted trying to juggle work, parenting, relationships, and your social life —forget about self-care

You struggle with obsessive (OCD or OCD-like) thinking patterns and struggle to break free of the distress caused by these unwanted thoughts

You’ve Googled or asked ChatGPT, “how do I get control of my anxiety?”

You are on autopilot, not really enjoying your day to day life

You are adjusting to major life changes and don’t feel like the ground is steady yet, ie: new job, shifting friendships or relationships, parenthood, living independently

You are a woman in your 20s-40s navigating the invisible mental load and complexities of early adulthood or motherhood

You want to feel confident and calm rather than stuck and second guessing

You’re done pretending you don’t have any needs, and you want to maintain boundaries with more confidence

I work with people who feel these exact things every day. You don't have to carry these burdens alone. Therapy offers a safe space to heal, regain control, and start living with more clarity and confidence.

I serve adults & young adults ages 16+ who need support with anxiety, panic, chronic stress, depression, life transitions, self esteem, and navigating relationship dynamics.

The Taking Care Approach

Many of the ambitious clients I work with spend so much time caring for others or about others that their own needs come last. It’s overwhelming and emotionally exhausting, and it results in feeling disconnected from yourself and those around you. The saying is true: you do need to put your oxygen mask on first.

Taking Care of yourself is the best gift you can give others, and the most valuable investment you can make in yourself.

I use an integrative approach, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. My goal is to help you find practical tools that fit your life and support meaningful change.

Therapy with me is collaborative and supportive. I will listen without judgment, help you make sense of what you’re experiencing, and offer thoughtful feedback when you’re ready to focus on solutions.

Come see me in person in Cresskill, NJ, or via telehealth throughout New Jersey or Connecticut!
