I completed my Masters in Social Work at Rutger’s University and have extensive experience working with teens, adults and families in individual and group settings. I am specialized in working with individuals who have a history of trauma and who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, relationship issues etc. I am also a trained EMDR therapist. 

What were you doing before joining OHI?

I’ve worked in community mental health for close to a decade, providing group and individual therapy to adults. Prior to OHI, I supervised a mental health program, which gave me the pleasure of mentoring other amazing therapists! I have worked in the community providing therapy to youth and families, as well, during the height of COVID. 

What makes you happy or excited to do your job?

To help clients feel empowered over their own lives. My favorite thing to hear is “Wow, I didn’t know therapy could be like THIS.” 

What do you like doing outside of OHI?

I love to stay in and have a game night with friends. I consider myself a “foodie” and enjoy eating at different restaurants to experience foods from all cultures.
