It’s nice to meet you…
In my free time I love going to concerts, seeking new outdoor adventures, traveling, and spending quality time with my husband, fur babies, family and friends.
I am licensed in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and am providing secure and confidential counseling to teens, young adults and adults through a HIPAA compliant platform, to allow my clients access to mental health services without having to leave the comfort of their home.
