ADHD Therapists in Allentown, NJ

Everyone can benefit from meeting with a therapist. There are many benefits to therapy whether you are looking to process your day to day stressors or identifying patterns and ways of thinking that have been keeping you from moving forward. I work with adults that are experiencing Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, and Trauma. I am also experienced with working with a broad range of presenting problems such as co-occurring disorders, personality disorders, self-harm, stress management, life transitions and setting boundaries. My experiences include working with children, teens, and adult clients.

With 25 years in practice, I treat a broad spectrum of problems across the life span. Utilizing a developmental perspective and extensive training (Psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, Mindfulness and Hypnotherapy), I customize treatment to your needs, in a warm and judgment free atmosphere supportive of personal growth. I am interested in how feelings, thoughts and behaviors intersect, or form patterns that play a role in distress and adaptation. I can help you, your child or family to see how these forces affect your well being and how they can shift to ease tensions and to create new perspectives and changes that allow for more fulfilling experiences.

Once stated by Erik Erickson, "Children love and want to be loved and they very much prefer the joy of accomplishment". My passion comes from working with children, adolescents, and families as they learn and grow together while celebrating the joys of their own accomplishments. Providing support while managing a variety of life stressors including but not limited to school difficulties, ADHD, anxiety, and defiance are my specialty. I have gained this specialty through my work while providing therapy in Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, and School Based Programs. Having the privilege to provide you with empathy, warmth, and empowerment on this journey is my hope.

I work with adults, couples, children and adolescents combining a variety of approaches including talk therapy and neurotherapy. I emphasize the value of our relationship, building trust by listening and understanding your needs. Treatment is geared to removing barriers that prevent you from having a meaningful life, developing the skills to support your journey towards healing and free you from negative emotions such as guilt, shame, fear, anxiety and anger. Through a process of self- exploration, problem solving, skills development, you can learn to overcome obstacles, clarify your values and reach your goals..

Dr. Alexander Kiss is a Psychologist in New Jersey who has been practicing since 2020. He earned his Doctor of Psychology at Florida Institute of Technology. Dr. Kiss believes that every individual person has individual needs, and no diagnosis is the same. His philosophy is that no one should be defined by their diagnosis, though diagnostic clarity can be helpful in seeking assistance to treat the symptoms experienced in any diagnosis. His goal is to help you or your family further understand the symptoms and behaviors you are experiencing to find the best way to help you manage life.

Is your child underperforming academically? Have you become your child's enemy fighting over school work? Are you overwhelmed with daily tasks? Do you promise yourself to get things done but never seem to accomplish them? Labels such as lazy, unmotivated, procrastinator, disorganized, not working up to potential are often used but do not address the underlying issues. Research has shown that a trained ADHD coach can help. For the past 21 years, I have built a reputation in the Princeton/Mercer County area for helping students and adults to overcome the daily obstacles that come with ADHD.

I am a Licensed Psychologist with a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology. I specialize in therapy for children, pre-school through adolescence, and their families. I also work with a broad spectrum of adults and couples. I combine therapeutic play, mind-body and brain-based therapies, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help children better understand their feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Through therapy, children can then learn to make better choices, have healthier relationships, and feel positive about themselves. My work with children includes trauma, grief, adjustment to parent separation/divorce, difficulties with mood, problem behaviors, social challenges, ADD/ADHD; Asperger's Disorder, and Autism.

Every person is unique. I pride myself in meeting you where you are currently at, find what works best for you, and creating a plan together that will best improve YOUR mental health. I received my Master of Social Work with a concentration in clinical work with children and families from Monmouth University. I have worked in the mental health field for well over a decade and have been a practicing therapist just shy of 10 years.

My supportive and thoughtful approach to psychotherapy involves helping clients to take a look at themselves and their choices to determine whether their personal styles are working for them. In this way, clients become more aware of how they relate to others and how to make healthy choices to reduce and better manage stress, improve mood, and enhance relationships. Identifying maladaptive patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, and making changes in those patterns, helps people to live more rewarding and satisfying lives. Therapy is a process in which people learn to live more adaptively and with more personal fulfillment.
