Therapists in Fair Haven, NJ

LIFE PSYCHOTHERAPY is a private psychotherapy practice offering counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, elderly, couples, families, and groups. Since each person is unique, the approach to therapy is unique as well, combining existential philosophy with cognitive behavioral tools. The outcome empowers a person to feel empowered to take concrete actions in order to change or cope with their current level of distress, and achieve success in improving his/her life. Along with Psychotherapy we provide a variety of psycho-educational workshops to enhance personal growth and development without any stigma attached to psychotherapy.

I am a modern and hip child/adolescent and adult psychotherapist looking to remove the stigma of therapy by making it accessible, solution based and engaging to young kids and teens. Therapy shouldn't be a punishment or a seen as a defeat. Yes of course, we will do hard work and it won't always be easy, but with years of experience and education, I am able to connect with my young clients and show them that together we can find a solution.

I have experience working with clients of all ages, utilizing individual, couples and family therapy. I work with clients to overcome issues such as anxiety, depression, school refusal, PTSD, stress, panic attacks, grief and loss, substance abuse issues and other social, emotional concerns.

I am a warm, affirming, non-judgmental psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience, and I work with an interactive, humanistic, strengths-based, trauma-informed, HAES-aligned, and transparent narrative therapy approach. I believe that people have the innate capacity to heal and change. We will work together to develop a deeper understanding of your life goals and perspectives, so that we can custom-tailor techniques to make life most meaningful for you. I am licensed to practice with people who reside in: NY, NJ, PA, VT, RI, DE, SC, FL. I work with individuals and couples/relationships of various configurations.

Tema Therapy is a multi-lingual Center created to serve the various needs of people and families who consider being multi-cultural or multi-lingual as a part of their identity. The founder of this facility, Dr. Irina Volynsky, had multiple experiences of being asked to evaluate or work in therapy with children and adults whose native language was not English, who were misdiagnosed, and were not receiving appropriate help. Upon further consideration, the barrier presented was not only about the language but also about the different cultural context in which norm and pathology were understood differently.

I work with people who are dealing with stress, relationship issues, and family conflicts. Some are afraid they are "not good enough", or struggle with people pleasing, which comes at a great cost to themselves. There are those who have a hard time figuring out who they are and what they want in life. My job is to help you manage stress, improve relationships, find out your wants and needs, and gain more self-confidence. The first step is to get a sense of one each other, in order to gain comfort and figure out what interventions will work best.

I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety and related disorders using cognitive behavioral principles (CBT) with adults and teenagers. Problems treated include panic disorder, OCD, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety, trauma, specific phobias and depression. I frequently work with families and couples to address the impact of these difficulties on relationships, and collaborate with other treating professionals (e.g., psychiatrists, pediatricians, general physicians). My approach includes helping patients reach both insight as well as behavioral change for lasting and meaningful improvement.

Transitions can be so difficult for us. If you are struggling with adjusting to a major life change, such as the end of a relationship or a significant loss, I can help you work through the challenges you are having and guide you in processing your feelings. If you are having difficulty within your relationship, I can work with you either individually or as a couple to improve communication, reconnect and understand each other better. If you are feeling depressed or anxious, I work closely with you to find the most effective ways to feel better.

I am dedicated to supporting the individuals I work with in addressing a range of areas including anxiety, chronic illness, grief, life transitions, family and relationship issues, and trauma. I strive to build a trusting relationship where clients can speak openly, better understand their feelings and inner experiences, and develop awareness of narratives and patterns that may be getting in the way of living a more fulfilling life.

You are tired of thinking about the worst-case scenarios when it comes to your work and current/future relationship. You tired of listening to the never-ending dialogue of your inner critic that you are not good enough that keep you stuck.

It’s time to get joy and excitement back into your life. It's time to start showing up for yourself! I work with individuals and couples to get unstuck from negative thought patterns and behavior.

The journey of life can sometimes be trying, difficult, and uncomfortable, but I believe that by working together, you can open new pathways and attain your goals for a happier future. I look forward to working with you to explore the past, create meaning in the present and embark on an exhilarating future.

I work with people suffering from various mental health conditions: depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood disorders, or grieving a loss. In my 25 years as a therapist, I have worked with patients from diverse cultural, racial, and socio-economic backgrounds. In the recent years, my focus has been psychotherapy, support and psycho-education for people with acute or chronic medical conditions. The achievements of modern medicine do not replace attention to potentially devastating psychological effects of being sick, yet doctors often overlook or ignore them, leaving us to cope with fear, loneliness, and critical decisions to make.

An effective therapist can help you overcome difficulties and enhance your life. My name is Asya Rivinson, and I am a psychotherapist licensed in NJ and NY. Currently I have my private practice in Springfield, NJ, and in Manhattan but my experience of working in different countries helps me to connect with clients of various backgrounds and values. My work as a therapist for over a decade developed both my skills and my faith in the value of therapy. In my work, I am supportive, insight-oriented, professional and knowledgeable.

I strongly believe in the power of therapy. I am convinced that the quality of one’s life can be drastically improved even in the worst cases of mental health disorders. I speculate that if only people knew how tremendously their lives could be improved, they would not hesitate a single second and would find assistance right away.
