Are you struggling in the workplace and/or with your relationships ? I am a skilled licensed psychologist and I work with children and adults within the context of their families. I treat anxiety, depression, phobias, OCD , mood disorders and learning disabilities, and often use cognitive behavioral interventions such as systematic desensitization. My background in School Psychology has sensitized me to the impact that cognitive limitations, learning disabilities, ADHD and spectrum disorders have on day to day functioning in adulthood, where the most typical presenting problems are Anxiety, Depression, and Relationship issues.
I treat individuals with ADHD, LD, Tourette's Syndrome, Selective Mutism, OCD, Panic Attacks and Spectrum Disorders & work with parents of children with these disorders. I do psychometric evaluations with adults and do marital counseling as needed. I have also published reputable research on Transgenerational Transmission of Trauma and Resilience.
I am the winner of the the New York State Leadership in School Psychology Award and the Opencare Patient Choice Award . I have been recognized as one of the top West Orange Psychology practices, which is where my office is located. Connect to my website by searching for Helen Lichtman PhD Psychologist.
