Therapists in Leonia, NJ

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with over 20 years experience working with children, adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, mood and behavioral disorders, and ADHD. I can help you find your way to a better and happier you. My services include therapy for anxiety, depression, self-esteem, personal, school or work related issues and career counseling. My treatment approach is CBT, Family Systems, mindfulness and solution-focused treatments.

Elysian Counseling believes it is essential to work through past traumas and to look at how community and family systems develop identity and, at times, may perpetuate behaviors that keep people in a cycle of self-defeat, poor choices, and a feeling of being stuck. We use an integrative approach with a look at the root causes of the issues you may be experiencing. Together we build a safe and strong therapeutic alliance, and explore techniques tailored to your needs and goals to achieve optimum wellness.

Footprints was started by a therapist who realized that often times the services provided to low socio-economic communities is lacking quality care. We noticed these communities were confronted with long wait times, disrespectful admins, and subpar treatment. The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Footprints began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.

The foundation of effective therapy is a strong and comfortable connection between the client and therapist. I am highly experienced at establishing that strong therapeutic connection. I help people who struggle with a range of issues including anxiety, depression and relationship/family difficulties. I partner with clients to identify the source of their problems so that they can better understand themselves. We seek solutions that have long term benefits so that clients can complete therapy with greater clarity and confidence, and are well equipped to deal with future challenges.

Do you ever feel like I used to, thinking that overcoming some elusive, unidentified obstacle would lead to stepping into my best life? Perhaps you recognize its name. Maybe intrusive thoughts persist, accompanied by uncontrollable anger or flashbacks, leaving you uncertain about improvement. Whether you've tried therapy without success or are considering it for the first time, if this resonates with you, you're in the right place!

I am very fortunate to combine my three loves: people, psychology and dogs. Over the years my dogs have accompanied me to my office and have been of great therapeutic value and pleasure in their interaction with patients of all ages. Therapy is an exciting adventure in which therapist and patient agree to explore the patient's life, dreams, problems, fears, hopes and aspirations. As therapist it is my responsibility to guide: sometimes lead, share and always to jointly explore who the individual is. While everyones' therapy is different, therapy is the opportunity to pull ones' life together and develop the courage to change.
