Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in 08244

The foundation of my approach is client-centered, believing that through therapeutic rapport change is possible. This approach has provided me with the opportunity to provide adolescents, families, couples and adults my areas of expertise in which I utilize various disciplines of treatment. Such areas include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness and skill building domains that include communication, the development of boundary setting, effective decision making and emotional regulation skills to help manage moods, sleep disturbance, stress and reactivity.

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is the most crucial component in ensuring that the client can make significant changes in their life. Everyone deserves to discuss their personal issues in an environment that provides safety, validation, compassion, and empathy. I utilize a psychodynamic approach when working with clients because I feel that our environments shape who we are. During different developmental periods in our life, there can be disruptions that cause future heartache, some which may need to be uncovered. I offer virtual sessions as well as in person sessions.

Making the decision to seek out help and pursue therapy takes courage!
