About Me

I counsel from a strengths-based compassionate view point. All ages are of interest to me as I believe in relationships and how clients are able to operate within the relationships they find themselves. With 29 yrs of work in education, students and young adults are of particular interest. I have worked as an in-school clinician in a K-8 school with children who have emotional, behavioral and interpersonal issues. As a former spiritual hospice counselor, I have gained extensive background in grief and loss therapy and end-of-life issues that are often manifested through family dynamics.

I am effective with anxiety, grief and loss issues, family dynamics and student child interpersonal skills. I work with individuals with racial self- esteem issues. I am a student/child advocate with New Jersey, and work with clients in their environments i.e. home, school, or facilities.

I am an advocate of mental health support for people of all ages. I enjoy working with children and their families who are struggling with issues, stress, feelings and behavior. I encourage all those who need mental health support to consider professional support. Taking care of your feelings is not a stigma.
