Therapists in Green Township, NJ

Experienced clinician for various mental health disparities between adolescent and adult years. Experienced as an athlete competing at multiple levels of competition, and coaching high school sports. Experienced working with professionals under stress, conflict, career changes, and relationship strife. Friend of families with addiction history.

When addressing life's most vulnerable impasses, we believe that strong relationship building and the development of an effective treatment plan involving insight and behavior change are the keys to success. Our therapists work with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families stuck in familiar but ineffective patterns of coping. We guide our clients through the process of change where keys to solution are courageously uncovered.

My ultimate aim is to teach clients to become their own therapist. I facilitate self-reflection to gain insight into maladaptive thoughts and behaviors. I foster self-compassion, coping skills, and mental fortitude in facing stressors, problems, and crises. I believe in empowering clients to make positive changes beyond the near future and build resilience in facing challenges for a lifetime.

I have been working in the field of adolescent mental health and substance abuse counseling for over 14 years. I started my career working in a mental health partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient program for adolescents and eventually came to specialize and work with adolescents and their families with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders in an intensive outpatient program which I coordinated, before moving on to work with adolescents in a high school setting.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide holistic, trauma focused and culturally sensitive therapy. I am dedicated to meeting the needs of the growing number of individuals experiencing emotional and behavioral difficulties. I treat, adults and family. I work with individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, health concerns, grief, gender related issues, interpersonal conflicts, women's issues, life transitions, relationship challenges and traumatic experiences. Therapy can help one move toward understanding of who we are and why we are here. As one grows and learns about oneself life becomes more purposeful, meaningful, satisfying and joyful.

You may feel lost and confused. You don’t know what happened exactly, but you know you are unhappy, and you want your life to get better. Maybe a lot of things make you worried; maybe you are stressed; maybe you want to achieve certain things, but you simply can’t (yet). Or you may come to therapy somehow knowing what you want.

It can be difficult to open up about your personal struggles to a stranger. Many racial/ethnically diverse clients find it to be a distinct challenge: “we can’t find a therapist who understands our cultural/religious beliefs & it is too emotionally exhausting to explain it.” In this journey of self-exploration and coping with life’s struggles, the last thing you need is a counselor that you need to educate, feel fearful to talk to about culturally sensitive issues due to judgment or stereotypes, or to feel retaliation from someone who is supposed to provide you a safe space. Natasha aims to create this space for everyone she sees.

Thank you for visiting my page. In my almost 30 years of experience as a therapist, I have learned each of us has unique needs. In our first session we will get clarity on your goals and devise a plan to reach them. Often when people are seeking therapy the first thing they want is relief. Implementing principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can provide that relief early on. Whatever the source of your distress, whether from childhood, recent stressors or any combination thereof, using a culturally sensitive, strength based, CBT approach is an efficient and proven way to restore your sense of well-being.

Reaching this new chapter of life felt like a milestone and you couldn't wait to get started. But now that you're here, your brilliant future is a blank page. Where do you even begin? It's so overwhelming that you get caught up in the day-to-day tasks, taking care of others, procrastinating, doom-scrolling... You never really get to the thing that moves your own story forward; not that you even know what that "thing" would be. So instead you end up spinning with anxiety or beating yourself up with words you wouldn’t say to an enemy. You feel the clock ticking. Everyone else is making plans, leveling up... Why can’t you get unstuck?

Life without a doubt, is complex. Days can be filled with various types of emotions and as a compassionate, experienced clinician, I can work with you to navigate those feelings, thoughts and sometimes negative patterns that can persist. I use a person-centered, strength based, and eclectic approach to address your individual needs. Having over 20 years of experience working with youth, adolescents, and adults with complex needs, I have addressed such matters of parent-child relation issues, blended family conflict, couples’ issues, interpersonal relationships, mood disorders, grief, youth sexual trauma, and more.

I work with individuals, couples and families. I help people who are "stuck" in their personal life and / or career free themselves to make better decisions and attain their goals. This can include finding a greater sense of purpose, resolving conflicts with significant people in your life and aiding in the challenging transitions we all face in life. In addition to my private practice I consult to organizations on the stresses at work, work / life balance and career coaching.
