Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Certified Alcohol and Substance Abuse Counselor with several years of experience in mental health and addiction fields. My approach is person-centered, and my style is warm, compassionate, caring, and friendly. I offer many therapeutic modalities that I can tailor to meet your needs.

I will work with you to navigate difficult emotions and create healthier thoughts, beliefs, and behavior patterns. Let me help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, discover your strengths, and create a life that is happier, healthier, and more fulfilling.

After over a decade invested in my marketing career, I decided I wanted to do something that was more meaningful and fulfilling — something that made a positive impact in people's lives. I have always had a passion for helping others and wanted to make a difference. People always would come to me with their problems, and I've always been curious and loved learning about people, so it was the perfect career choice for me.

I enjoy spending time with my daughter and watching her compete in sports. I love traveling to new places, but especially traveling to my favorite beach destinations during the cold Northeast winters. I like to be creative and create self-help videos during my free time, take courses to learn more treatment modalities, exercise, and spend time outdoors in nature (walking, boating, hiking, etc.)

Some form of exercise, whether it be cardio, breathing, stretching, or somatic exercises.

The Alchemist, I love all of the inspirational messages. It's a book everyone should read. :)

NAMI is my favorite organization because it is dedicated to improving the lives of millions of Americans affected by mental illness. NAMI has a strong community presence in cities and towns throughout the country raising awareness, providing advocacy, support, and education that was not previously available to those in need.

Going on vacation, taking a bath, spending time in nature, and having quality alone time.

I have two cats - a boy, Shadow, and a girl, Cupcake who love each other. My cat, Cupcake, fetches her toys like a dog and can jump several feet high. She's so adorable and loving, but also loves human food. I can't leave out any type of food in a container because she will find a way to open it and eat it.
