Sexual Abuse Therapists in 07924

Hi and welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and for the past 20 years have been helping people within a variety of different settings. I love working with people of all ages and stages and am especially passionate about supporting teenagers and working with couples to help heal and strengthen their relationship.

I recognize and am deeply respectful of the courage it takes to reach out for help. I believe each client has unique strengths and work with you to discover and enhance these as we explore, modify, and resolve troublesome areas. My training and style combine cognitive, behavioral and psychodynamic techniques. I am dedicated to combining my experience, skills,and compassion to help you develop the specific tools you need. My clients are adults and teens who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, postpartum struggles, and the psychological struggles and complications that come with chronic physical illness or having a chronically ill family member.

As a solution focused Addictions and Trauma Therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that you want to celebrate. While we can't change situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve life challenges. I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to my client's individual needs to attain the personal growth they are striving for. I recognize that for many change feels unattainable. However, In a nonjudgmental environment I can help you develop the confidence and skills to carry out change in a non-threatening way.

I believe most people are innately resilient, and only need a fresh perspective to help them to restore balance to their lives. I begin by getting to know my client's unique life experience, beliefs, concerns, and behaviors. We then work together to identify, challenge and discard self-limiting beliefs and behaviors, and help them choose more constructive beliefs and behaviors that produce positive life outcomes.

I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, and trauma. Many of the people who engage in therapy with me do so as a result of stress related to relationship conflict or life transitions including pregnancy. I utilize an integrative, personalized approach to therapy and believe the therapeutic process should be collaborative and transparent. Together we will work to identify your unique needs and goals and will use shared-decision making in identifying how we will work together.

If you are struggling with anxiety, sadness, grief, excessive worry, obsessional thinking? Do you feel your challenges are overwhelming? Do you wish you could just enjoy your life again? I work with clients with a range of troubles and challenges to overcome their difficulties and reclaim their lives. I am specialized to work with both adults and children using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is a science based approach, which means it is proven to help you feel better and get on with living your life. I am a warm, personable, humorous, compassionate psychologist here to support you through your most difficult of times.
