I have over 15 years of experience in the field working with children, adolescents, adults, as well as working with families with geriatric care needs.  I graduated from Montclair State University with a BA in Psychology and I received my MSW from Columbia University.  I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of NJ.  I am bilingual in English and Greek.  I have experience working in various settings including a school with children with developmental disabilities, challenging behaviors, and various emotional illnesses, a mental health clinic with adult patients with chronic mental illnesses, out-pt therapy with children and families, nursing home/sub-acute unit providing emotional support and discharge planning, and most recently, for almost 10 years, at Hackensack Meridian Health as a social work advocate for patients and families.  

Everyone has a unique and special story and life experiences that have brought them to the place they are in now.  I am here to listen empathically without judgement and help understand the person you are and the struggles and challenges you are facing.  I use various modalities of therapy customized to meet my clients needs.  I will implement a personalized therapeutic approach dependent on the assessment of your individual circumstances and needs .   When needed, I collaborate with various other professionals including psychiatrists, dietitians, treatment programs, and other programs suited for my individualized client's needs.
