Our life experiences can lead us to question our identity and purpose in the world we live in. This can lead us to anxiety, depression, and trauma. Do you want to improve how you face challenges, function in your relationships, and face overwhelming feelings? I place heavy importance on addressing trauma. Trauma disintegrates the parts that make up your whole self, which can leave aspects of who you are hidden from your awareness. Left unaddressed, anxiety and depression can worsen, which can rob you of the necessary connection that all human beings need to thrive. I aim to help you process unresolved trauma. I believe in a holistic, trauma-informed, and strengths-based approach to healing anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. I draw upon CBT, narrative and solution-focused therapy to create a safe space for you to share your story, heal difficult emotions, and transcend them in order to live your desired life. I have over 10 years of experience working with adults, couples, and families in various capacities. I can help you develop practical tools to regulate intense feelings, communicate effectively with others, and develop healthy boundaries. Feel free to book a free consultation.

Are you struggling with stress and anxiety? As women, we face a lot of complex issues. The pressure of wearing so many hats at once can feel overwhelming. You might be feeling like no one understands or has the time to listen to you. You are used to keeping it all inside and managing on your own, but it's not working anymore. You want to find peace and relief from the things that are keeping you from enjoying life. You deserve care that is compassionate and empowering. You don't have to manage all of these emotions by yourself anymore. I specialize in working with adult women with anxiety, depression, postpartum depression and anxiety, and those going through stressful life transitions. I'll help you become more compassionate towards yourself and empower you. I will encourage you to honor your emotional experiences while learning to manage your unwelcome symptoms. My practice is one of openness and acceptance. You don’t need to be fixed, you just need to rediscover the coping tools that are already within you. I want our time together to be a place where you can put yourself first. I am here for you, every step of the way. It isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it. Please book your free consultation on my website.

*** CURRENTLY NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS *** Therapy offers the opportunity to make lasting positive changes in life and in relationships. By exploring the role the past has played in current difficulties and dissolving old, destructive patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving, life can be more balanced and joyful. I offer warmth, compassion, support, and insight to my clients, with an approach that is direct, non-judgmental, and tailored to meet the specific needs of each individual. Oriented toward building on natural strengths and empowering meaningful changes, our work together can foster an increased ability to more adaptively attend to the ever-changing flow of life. Together, we will work toward identifying destructive behavioral patterns and replace them with empathy for ourselves and those around us. Learning the art of non-judgmental awareness - mindfulness - we will explore these themes, connecting more intimately with the memories, emotions, thoughts, and sensations fundamentally associated with them. By exploring unmet childhood and current attachment needs, we learn to conquer self-defeating habits and discover a new way of approaching our thoughts, emotions, and personal behavior. Empowering ourselves to get our basic needs met in this way, we move toward creating greater balance, harmony, and joy in our lives.

You are aware of your challenges, stuck in patterns of thought, action or inaction that you can't seem to escape. Your life, and/or the relationship you want, is waiting for you, but you can't get to it. There's something on the other side of this feeling, as if you are missing something. I offer creative, practical treatment that promotes resilience and helps you build the life you imagine using an engaged, creative approach. When you feel you no longer need to see me, and you trust the coping skills and perspective you have developed, our work is complete, and that is my goal for our work together. I'm licensed in NY/CA/NJ and PA. I work in Schema Therapy, which aims to help you find adaptive ways to meet your emotional needs. Schemas are broad, organizing beliefs our minds create to make sense out reality. We all have them, and they inform our every move. Combined with coping skills of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), my other specialty, our work blends insight with action steps. The therapy space is a safe, soothing environment, an oasis where you can explore what you more commonly hold inside. We will co-create a map of YOU, using insight, metaphor, stories, guided exercises, role play, DBT coping skills, nature, and creative writing and journaling. My style is engaged and relational, direct and creative. Each session is a journey.

I believe in transparency and honesty. I have experienced my own difficulties and challenges in life after 22 years in the U.S. Army and I am in recovery from PTSD and substance abuse. Nobody wakes up one morning and decides to be addicted to substances. It just happens. We are not weak, defective, useless, worthless, morally corrupt, or any other disparaging comments often said about individuals with a Substance Use Disorder. We are loving individuals that are just hurting inside. We want what everyone else wants....to just be accepted and needed for who we are. I use an eclectic approach to therapy; including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement, Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Just as each one of us are unique with our own individualistic personalities, I too believe therapy should be tailored to the individual. There is no one model that fits everyone. I have been there. After my return from my third combat deployment, I began abusing prescription medication and alcohol. Fortunately, I was blessed with the opportunity to get help. This journey has led me to dedicating my life to helping others experiencing similar difficulties. I don't have all of the answers, but I do know the way out.

Have you ever felt like you were wearing a mask around everyone else? That you are truly the one exception to the rule that everyone is deserving of love? That you are actually the one person in this world who must be perfect, the funniest, the most attractive? Or that there's just something "off" inside you or within your life? I understand because I've been there and it's why I try to cultivate a space for people to practice being themselves, free of judgement. Whether it's through humor, the odd curse word (or ten) or representing your mood through memes, I love it all. Because the real growth comes from being genuinely you. I help my clients increase their self-worth, strengthen their relationships, and develop an awareness of their emotional responses by exploring the deeper "roots" behind our protective parts of self. I believe that through exploring deeply held beliefs about oneself and the world, and accepting all parts of self, that people can achieve growth and change. Therapy can be an uncomfortable and challenging process; however, it is truly a rewarding journey towards self-acceptance. As isolating as it can feel, you are not alone in these experiences. Change is possible and I would be honored to be apart of your journey towards embracing the traits and characteristics that make you uniquely you.

Do you feel like you’re continually caught in a struggle or stuck between two difficult options? Are you struggling with your relationships or parenting?

While the counseling process can feel scary, you are not alone. My goal is to empower change by providing a safe, healing environment that supports self discovery and understanding. With a solution focused, holistic and integrative approach, I pull from multiple evidenced based practices and utilize components from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, emotion coaching, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, play therapy, sand tray therapy, art therapy and additional models.

My practice at Reclaim is dedicated to women suffering the damaging impact of relational abuse, betrayal trauma, or sexual coercion. This trauma can occur as a result of a partners' addiction to pornography, substances, or other compulsive behaviors. Covert emotional abuse is a 'hidden epidemic' today that often goes unnoticed or disregarded by family, friends, church, and counselors. We also work with women who have PTSD due to family-of-origin/attachment issues or other traumatic life events. We offer safe connection and a pathway to healing. I offer teletherapy for women dealing with addictions, ACOA/dysfunctional-family issues, emotional abuse, coercive control, mindfulness, trauma, Recovery and Restoration. If you are in a relationship that constantly leaves you feeling confused, less-than, or dismissed, I believe there is hope and healing for you. Find Hope and Freedom. Heal from Relational Trauma.

It can be difficult to find the time and space for self-reflection and self-healing in this fast-paced world that demands so much of us. Maybe you're feeling stuck in circumstances, relationships, and/or a lifestyle that doesn't fulfill you. Maybe you're attracted to the idea of forming healthier habits but struggle to put those ideas into action. Maybe life has handed you losses or transitions that are making stress or grief hard to manage on your own. All of those feelings are hallmarks of the experience of being human from time to time. Fortunately, you don't have to deal with any of it alone. My goal is to support you on a journey of self-discovery that will make you more accepting of your identity, able to communicate your personal needs, and more effective in living a life that truly reflects your values day to day. I provide a person-centered and trauma-informed space where trauma processing and internal commitment to change can safely occur. Sometimes reaching out to a new person, like me, when you're already dealing with a lot emotionally can feel intimidating. However, it may be your first step to treating yourself like a priority. Self-exploration with the support of a professional can be an incredibly rewarding path to a holistically balanced existence. I would be glad to walk with you.
