I am a Licensed Psychologist and Certified School Psychologist in the State of New Jersey. I am also a Nationally Certified School Psychologist (NCSP). I received my Master's of Education degree in Counseling Psychology from Rutgers University Graduate School of Education and a PhD in School Psychology from the University of Arizona. My doctoral training focused on school-based assessment and treatment of disorders common to children and adolescents including: learning disabilities, autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and disruptive behavior disorders. My doctoral training included a minor in special education.

My approach to therapy is eclectic and involves aspects of Person-Centered (Humanistic) Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I find that therapy is most effective through building and maintaining a strong collaborative alliance based on mutual respect and understanding. My aim is to be a genuine person and in doing so to create a warm and comfortable environment. In my private practice I work with adults coping with depression, anxiety, parenting issues, relationship struggles, and other problems of adjustment. My work with children and adolescents includes academic and social struggles, oppositional behavior, anxiety, depression, and parent conflict.
