A Little About Me
I am a licensed psychologist practicing in Plainsboro, New Jersey. I hold active licenses in New Jersey (5998) and Massachusetts (9674)and am authorized through PSYPACT (9473) to practice telehealth in a number of states across the country.
I specialize in anxiety and perinatal mental health, including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, pregnancy-related concerns, and life transitions. My goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based therapy in a space that feels safe, supportive, and collaborative.
My Training & Background
I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology with a concentration in Latino Mental Health. During my training, I worked in a variety of settings, including:
- Elementary, middle, and high schools
- Residential treatment programs
- College counseling centers
- Community mental health centers
After graduation, I completed my post-doctoral fellowship at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, a multi-specialty medical group, and Riverside Community Care, an outpatient community mental health center.
Soon after becoming licensed in Massachusetts, I opened my private practice in Newton, MA, before returning to New Jersey to serve the community where I grew up.
My Approach to Therapy
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and insight-oriented work.
I believe therapy should help you:
- Understand patterns that keep you feeling stuck
- Reduce anxiety, depression, or overwhelm
- Strengthen your relationships
- Feel more confident navigating life transitions
- Build practical tools you can use outside of session
Whether you are adjusting to parenthood, coping with postpartum depression, navigating infertility, or managing chronic anxiety, therapy can help you feel more steady and more like yourself again.
