Overview
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a doctorate in counseling psychology from Rutgers University. I have been practicing in the field for over 15 years and enjoy working with both male and female clients, ages eight through to older adult. Although my clinical training has emphasized psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral techniques, I believe it is important to consider each client's unique experiences during the therapeutic process.

My philosophy is that change is always possible and to approach every client I see with respect, empathy, and honesty. Some of the clinical issues commonly presented by my clients include depression, anxiety, parenting,relationship struggles, low self-esteem, adoption, reproductive challenges/infertility, and obsessive-compulsive patterns.

I strive to work as a team with my clients to facilitate self-understanding in a safe and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Such insight, along with tools for managing distress, prepares individuals to make the most effective decisions in their lives and ultimately, achieve a greater sense of well-being.
