Get To Know Me
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I absolutely believe that people can feel better, or change, or see their problems differently. I believe that depression can be lessoned or go away. That anxiety can be reduced. I also am a pragmatic and direct therapist. We'll get right to the heart of what's on your mind. We'll come up with a plan. And we'll keep tweaking it. I will want you to give feedback on how the plan is working. Do you feel it's effective? Should we try something else? there will be a lot of give and take. And homework for the client.

Professional Background
LicensureNew Jersey, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, 44SC05283800
Training/CertificationsRational Emotive Behavioral Therapy certification
Education
University of Chicago, Master of Arts, Clinical Social Work, 1996 — University of Chicago asks that each student choose an administrative or clinical track. If a clinical track is chosen, the student must demonstrate proficiency in a theoretical model (cognitive, psychodynamic, family systems, etc,) before they can successfully graduate. The idea was to ensure that clinicians would expose themselves to different theoretical models and then select a model they would master and excel in. I chose cognitive behavioral therapy. I like this model because it's evidenced-based, works for all disorders and all ages, and works well with medication.
Work HistoryIn the last 25 years, my career has taken me to the following settings: in and outpatient psych; hospital ER; community mental health; assisted living; short-term rehab; residential & foster care for teens; group homes for intellectually disabled; and adult day programs for street homeless.
Over this time, I have witnessed many people struggling. I worked with victims of trauma including torture survivors, rape and incest survivors, adolescents with emotional and behavioral problems. I have also worked with individuals with mood disorders, personality disorders and individuals who are neurodiverse. My experience as Chief Operating Officer of a large agency helps me support women as they navigate their careers. I understand the complexities of business and fully support women thriving and flourishing in their chosen profession.
