Therapists in South Amboy, NJ

It's hard to admit needing help sometimes. Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed, lost, or inertia about self-motivated change? If you're struggling with managing anxiety or depression, infertility, adoption issues, trauma, LGBTQ, ADHD, child behavior, mariage, or impulse control I can help. I will "meet you where you are" emotionally, and together we can navigate what you are experiencing. I want to walk with you while you find mental wellness, manage stressors, obtain clarity, and gain the peace of mind that you deserve. There's much healing in being heard, understood, and taking time to process emotions.

Providing my clients with a comfortable, open, non-judgmental environment is key to developing a trusting relationship. I have found it to be so important for my clients to recognize and build upon their own strengths. In our work together we can establish definable goals for treatment and uncover various patterns that developed over time. After obtaining a Master's Degree from Columbia University, I had the opportunity to work in both inpatient, outpatient, and private practice settings. I specialize in working with individuals of all ages who are dealing with anxiety, self-destructive behaviors, or adoption-related concerns.

I specialize in women navigating infertility, pregnancy, and postpartum challenges, or any adult or teen navigating major life transitions like work/career changes, grief and loss, or family changes like divorce, separation, marriage, or adoption. I draw on interventions like mindfulness, CBT, Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), and DBT to support healing, growth, and change. I also have a certificate in Perinatal Mental Health, training as a birth doula, and my own experiences with parenthood, stepparenthood, adoption, blended and multicultural families.

I have a diverse practice in which I work with adults, children, adolescents and couples who are struggling with a variety of different issues. These include depression, anxiety/panic attacks, relationship problems, school and behavioral issues, parenting challenges, ADHD, low self-esteem, stress, sexual orientation and gender identity concerns, struggles with spirituality, self-injurious behavior, adoption, dealing with medical problems, grief and loss, trauma, and coping with divorce and its aftermath. My ideal client is one who wants help and is feeling ready to do the work necessary to improve and enrich his or her life.

I am conducting teletherapy for the foreseeable future from my home in NY for NJ based clients. The key to a successful therapeutic relationship is finding a therapist with whom you can develop a healthy trusting relationship. I believe therapy can be effective by exploring past experiences and relationships and examining how they are impacting current life stresses. A willingness to change is also critical. Please see my website for a greater description of my experience and philosophies. http://www.paulakaplanreiss.com

Only accepting new clients for Neuroqueer Connections virtual group at this time. I’m passionate about supporting people along their healing journeys and paths of self-discovery. I don’t believe we seek out therapy because we are “flawed” or because we need to be “fixed.” Instead, I view therapy as a powerful act of self-care when navigating challenging systems, -isms, circumstances and relationships. My own lived experience as a neurodivergent Korean adoptee drives my commitment to practicing from a place that holds space for - and celebrates- each person’s multiple and intersecting identities.

I help individuals to find timely relief from current challenges in their lives while also working to free themselves from old, destructive patterns of thinking and doing.
