I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor, a Licensed Registered Nurse, Board Certified in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing by the American Nurses Credentialing Center, and I am a Certified Case Manager and Legal Nurse Consultant.
I completed my graduate MA and Ph.D. degrees in Counseling, summa cum laude, and I have over 25 years experience. I also graduated summa cum laude with a Masters Degree in Nursing. I specialize in individual, couples and family therapy, working with a broad spectrum of clients. I maintain a private practice with offices in Red Bank and Toms River, NJ.
In addition to being a prominent therapist, I present seminars at professional conferences and to general audiences. As a school teacher, I wrote a text that is still used in the curriculum today. I have also written training manuals and provided staff inservice trainings. In addition to my full time counseling practice, I have taught Psychology and Addictions Counseling courses at Ocean County College to college students who want to become Addiction Counselors. In my capacity as a Legal Nurse Consultant, I provide supportive counseling to my clients for the legal issues they may be facing.
I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths to empower them to attain the personal growth and balance they are committed to
achieving.
