Family Therapy in Seaside Heights, NJ

Our emotional well-being is integral to our physical health. Individual or family therapy can enhance our ability to manage life's stressors, such as sudden or chronic illness, family conflicts, financial strain, or interpersonal problems, which can lead to anxiety, depression and physical maladies. Therapy is beneficial to people who struggle with a mental illness, such as clinical depression or bipolar disorder. Enhancing insight into our problems, along with the development of healthy coping skills is empowering, and can often mean the difference between facing each day with confidence or avoidance of living the best life possible.

Anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, eating disorders, relationships, parenting, autism, ADHD, adoption, foster care, oppositional defiance disorder and other challenging childhood diagnoses have been some of the issues I’ve helped people understand and manage. Whether it's how you look at relationships with a spouse, a child, family members, or friends, you can take control of your perspective, which leads to a happier life. I offer a personalized approach helping you make the connection between how thoughts affect your experience, giving you control over both.

Do you want to feel heard and validated? Are you struggling with advocating for yourself and your needs? Are you hoping to find peace and solace in your environment? Having courage to ask for help is definitely the first step towards growth and healing! And healing is a process! I am a trauma informed therapist and I enjoy working with clients to help them build awareness around themselves in a solution focused practice. I strive to build a therapeutic relationship where clients feel safe and comfortable discussing things with me.

Life has recently shown me that curveballs are bound to happen with no warning whatsoever. COVID-19 was a clear example of that. This past years have shown me just how quickly life can be derailed and how pivotal it is for mental health professionals like myself to exist. I have spent the last year working with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, biomedical issues, their various relationships, traumas from the past and present, family matters, and substance use.

In my experience, the best way to address a problem is head-on. If we avoid the things, people, and places that are stressing us out we only prolong our feelings of anxiety and depression. I believe this policy sticks whether we are dealing with avoiding cleaning a messy house, walking on eggshells with a significant other, or feeling at a loss when your child just doesn't listen. My solution-focused approach to problem solving is ideal for assisting you in many of life's challenging moments.

I'm a strengths based play therapist who believes that EVERYONE has GREATNESS inside of them! My goal when working with children and families is to focus on their strengths to build positive self esteem and to help restore peace and balance to the family unit. I specifically work with children who are trying to process change, divorce/separation, bullying, social rejection, grief, and school anxiety, just to name a few. I help children to recognize their own greatness, develop coping and problem solving skills, process trauma, and provide parents with the tools to help manage behaviors and emotionally support their kids at home.
