I have 10 years of experience working with children and teens ranging from preschool aged to high school as a School Social Worker. Through my career, I have developed a strong passion to not only advocate for children, but to also incorporate wellness and mindfulness into my practice. This desire led me to pursue my yoga certifications to practice with both adults and children. Additionally, I completed a certificate in Child Advocacy and Policy from Montclair State University. As a part of my continuing education, I have also pursued coursework in both Play Therapy and Sandtray Therapy.
I am a firm believer in taking a strengths based approach in my practice while helping individuals to see and fulfill their fullest potential. Providing a safe and supportive space for individuals to express themselves and be their truest self is my main goal as a practitioner.
