ONLInE THERAPY IN BERGEN COUNTY AND ALL OF NEW JERSEY and New york
It’s time to invest in your mental health.
You're tired of feeling like there is a void inside. Deep down you know that there is more to life than just merely getting by.
The good news is that you are not alone.
Everyone experiences challenges at some point in their lives. Feeling lost, confused, and overwhelmed are all common human emotions. Therapy can be a helpful tool for overcoming these challenges, and I can be your guide in helping you make sense of your thoughts and feelings, develop coping strategies, and create a plan for moving forward.
A Little About Myself:
I’ve been in the helping field for over 20 years, and I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life.
I arrived in the United States from Latvia as a teenager, so I understand what it’s like to rebuild a sense of home, identity, and belonging. I understand the pressure to succeed and the quiet strain of trying to hold onto who you are along the way. This perspective informs my work with clients facing change, uncertainty, and questions about who they want to become.
I struggled... and I can understand if you might be struggling too.
Maybe you feel like you are stuck in a perpetual whirlpool of chores and obligations, with no time for yourself. Maybe it feels like everyone wants a piece of you, but you have very little left to give. Maybe you feel frustrated, disillusioned, and burned out. Perhaps all you really want is a moment of peace to cuddle with your dog on the couch.
I hear you. I’ve been there, and I’ve helped many people - who feel just like you - reach the other side.
Maybe you are struggling to reach out, because to do so means having to overcome the stigma of going to therapy. Maybe it feels too hard to find the right supports to help you get unstuck and stay on track.
Therapy can be one of those life-changing supports. While this may not be an easy journey, therapy can give you an opportunity to grow and improve your life.

HEre’s what I believe about therapy:
It’s not about becoming someone "different."
Therapy is about helping you become the best version of yourself. No more feeling like you have nothing left to give or like you are only able to do your best in one area of life. It is about helping you understand yourself and your strengths. Some people are good at solving problems, while others are good at connecting. Some people are creative, while others are logical. There is no one right way to be. We can find and celebrate your strengths, which will support you in moving in the right direction.
The best investment you can make is in yourself.
Therapy offers long-term benefits that extend well beyond the present. If you sense that you’re not living the life you want, consider what it might feel like years from now - looking back and wishing you had explored therapy sooner. What if you could invest in yourself right now and spend the next decades grateful that you found the strength and therapeutic partner to make changes that will serve you for the rest of your life?
Therapy doesn’t have to be endless.
One of the aspects of therapy is about building your skills and giving you the tools to manage life independently. Therefore, in many circumstances, it’s not going to be a lengthy process. Therapy is often misconceived as an indefinite commitment, but in reality, it’s a transformative process designed to equip you with the tools and strategies so that you can navigate life’s challenges effectively on your own.
Get the support that’s right for you.
