Counseling for Change LLC

I have almost two decades of experience in counseling, a Master of Science degree in Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Wellness, and I am licensed by the state of Vermont as a clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) and the state of New Jersey as a professional counselor (LPC). Furthermore, I am a certified clinical supervisor of career counseling (CCSCC), which means that I not only know how to practice counseling effectively, but I also train others to do this work well.

My approach with each and every client involves kindness, caring, and empathy. You have unique needs, beliefs, and goals, and my mission is to always ensure you feel heard and respected. Our time will be spent working on the things that matter most to you. I also approach this work as a collaboration: you are the expert on you, I am the expert on counseling, and together we'll work to achieve a meaningful outcome for you!

I specialize in career counseling, mental health counseling, and counseling for LGBTQIA2+ folx. I practice an integrative approach to counseling that combines feminist, existential, and person-centered theories of counseling, along with a Positive Psychology foundation. For career counseling, I primarily use post-modern approaches, mainly drawing from happenstance theory and social cognitive career theory. I also incorporate narrative theory and life design counseling for career construction paired with design thinking principles and use of the CliftonStrengths assessment.
