Therapists in Highland Park, NJ

My passion is helping adults, college-age, & families reach their full potential. By engaging the patient through non- judgement & acceptance, a trusting therapeutic relationship can develop. Too often you may not feel heard by others & simply need an objective person who will listen & give feedback to whatever issue you are facing.

Compassion, curiosity and consideration are at the center of my work. I offer an affirming, person-centered and non-judgmental space in which to collaborate with you on your pathway to growth, healing and understanding. I work with all individuals across the lifespan, however I have a particular passion for assisting adolescents and young adults to find empowerment, strengthen self-advocacy and develop self-understanding. My approach is centered in my values including creating a safe space for vulnerability, honoring your strengths and meeting you where you are in life.

Anxiety, ADHD, Imposter Syndrome, people pleasing and negative thinking patterns don't have to run your life. I understand the complexities of our current lives and honor bringing our whole selves in the therapeutic space to learn essential skills to achieve your goals and be your best self.  I help adults and teens navigate challenges to achieve success, build confidence and maintain balanced wellbeing.

As a holistic psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience, I integrate left & right brain techniques to promote healing and well-being. I'm a registered yoga teacher, somatic and mindfulness practitioner, reiki healer, and artist. I'm passionate about expressive arts and the mind-body-spirit connection to help clients cultivate self-awareness, resilience, and inner joy. Thru yoga therapy, creative expression, and relaxation techniques, clients explore different aspects of themselves, fostering emotional healing and self esteem building. I also lead a structured virtual DBT group teaching emotion regulation skills to supplement.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have someone by your side, offering warmth and understanding as you navigate life's challenges and transitions? With over 15 years of experience, I have dedicated myself to being that supportive presence for individuals like you. My passion lies in assisting a diverse range of populations, including those struggling with anxiety, trauma, depression, and other neuro-diversities. Understanding the importance of inclusivity, I am committed to being gender-affirming and neuro-diverse affirming in my approach.

The Princeton Center for MindBody Healing prioritizes holistic healing and walking with you to grow your best self: mind, body and soul. Our clinicians work on a wide range of issues with a wide range of therapeutic techniques, self-care tools and clinical styles. We offer traditional and non-traditional outpatient services for individuals, couples, and families of all forms and fashions including office and nature sessions, walking sessions, video, text and telephone.

I am passionate towards working with you in your journey to wellness! Throughout my career, I have worked with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings and I have knowledge of mental and emotional health, chronic illness, loss/grief and difficulty coping with life's circumstances. I have extensive experience working in a medical setting helping children and families adjust to various medical diagnoses and navigating the challenges that come with treatment. I also have experience working with children, adolescents and families experiencing anxiety, depression, parent/child conflict and transitional challenges.

I am sensitive and empathetic and value the professional relationship I can build with clients. By listening to the client tell me about their lives, I strive to help the client understand their feelings better. I feel the greatest gift a therapist can give a client is to help build self-awareness. When we understand what we are feeling it is easier to understand our goals.

Are you tired of feeling like the weight of depression and anxiety is holding you back from living your life to the fullest? Do you find yourself grappling with the unique challenges that come with being a part of the LGBTQ community in a world that sometimes feels less than accepting? These questions can be overwhelming, but you don't have to face them alone. I approach therapy from an integrative perspective, rooted in a social justice framework. This means that our work together isn't just about alleviating symptoms.

Hello! My name is Sara Viola, LSW. I'm a licensed psychotherapist committed to empowering individuals on their path towards inner healing and personal growth. With a strengths-based approach, I offer compassionate support to help clients navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and clarity.

Everyone has a story. I believe people are deserving of a safe space to be genuinely seen and heard. I am here to support and empower my clients in their growth and fulfillment as they navigate their own unique journey through life. Although I work with clients of most ages and all backgrounds, many of my clients are millennial adults who are wanting to discover and connect with themselves on a deeper level as they experience the full spectrum of the human experience. Sessions are often a balance of supporting my clients as they process thoughts and feelings, and empowering them to develop new patterns in coping and communication.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in practice since 2010. In addition to providing individual, couples, and family psychotherapy, I also routinely provide supervision hours for LSW’s and LAC’s working on achieving their clinical licenses. My goal is to provide a compassionate, respectful and safe environment in order for you to explore and capitalize on your strengths to help you face life's challenges head on. I utilize evidence-based techniques and a person-centered approach, working with you from where you are at the present time.

Are you a young adult feeling detached or overwhelmed? Perhaps you're struggling to discover your true identity amidst life's challenges and expectations. You might be dealing with the effects of trauma, loss, a toxic cycle, or major life changes. Though you appear fine to others, you may feel like you're falling apart inside, unsure where to even begin. Maybe you're experiencing a mix of emotions like sadness, frustration, stress, insecurity, and lack of motivation. Whatever it is, know you don't have to face it alone. My goal is to provide a warm safespace to work together to start your journey of exploration, healing, and growth.

Taking the first step to attend therapy can be nerve wrecking and intimidating but can also demonstrate great insight and self-empowerment. My belief and intention in providing therapy is to collaboratively work with individuals to meet their unique needs and to develop a healthy and positive sense of self in order to accomplish personal goals. I also believe the therapeutic process is most effective when a strong therapeutic relationship is established; therefore, I provide an empathic, supportive, open, direct, and nonjudgmental environment with some humor mixed in when appropriate.
