15 years offering treatment
I am licensed in the state of New Jersey as a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I have over 14 years of counseling experience and expertise working as a counselor in a school system, as well as in an outpatient mental health counselor in a community agency. My primary therapeutic orientation is mainly person centered but I also include elements of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution-Focused, and Psychoeducation therapies, as the need arises. I wholeheartedly believe that the therapeutic relationship is essential for client growth. Furthermore, therapy should be a safe, non-judgmental, authentic experience, where the client’s voice needs to be valued, heard, and understood. Each individual is unique and should be treated with the utmost degree of respect and unconditional positive regard. I have experience working with adolescents and adults suffering from body image issues, changing their relationship with food, using food for comfort/eating issues, adopting a healthier lifestyle, obesity, bariatric counseling, self-esteem/self-confidence, motivation, coping skills, life-transitions, stress/anxiety, career difficulties, compassion fatigue syndrome, and everyday issues. I am passionate about encouraging, uplifting, and assisting others in overcoming their struggles, getting in tune with their truest self, and ultimately finding resolution.
