Intellectual Disability Therapists in Morris County, NJ

Hello, I am a licensed psychologist with specialization in clinical, neuro, and forensic psychology. I have many years of experience in both treatment and evaluation of children, adolescents, and adults. My areas of specialization include: CBT, DBT, Neuropsychological Testing (clinical and forensic), Neurofeedback and Cognitive Rehabilitation. I have worked extensively with Depressive Disorders; Anxiety Disorders; Bipolar Disorders; PTSD,; ADHD; Learning Disabilities; Intellectual Disability; Developmental Disorders including Autistic Spectrum Disorder; Concussion; Traumatic Brain Injury; and Dementia Disorders.

My ideal client could range in any issues. What is more important to me is they are ready and willing to do the work in navigating their challenges and is ready to better themselves. My ideal client is ready to talk and explore different angles of their struggles and is willing to express what is working and what doesn't work for them so we can find tuned treatment and continue to show progress.

Life at times can be overwhelming and stressful. During these times it can be helpful to have someone to talk to. As a licensed clinical social worker, my goal is to be able to provide a safe place to explore your feelings, and help you develop and strengthen your coping strategies. Whether you have been dealing with challenges surrounding a new or chronic medical issue, feeling sad or anxious, stress related to a new responsibility or life change or coping with issues surrounding aging I can assist.

Families of children with autism, developmental disabilities and behavioral challenges may find themselves frustrated and exhausted as they try to manage their child's behavior, or just try to enjoy a calm, harmonious day to day life. They may find the traditional parenting tricks seem to make things worse, or just don't seem to apply to their child.

(The best way out is always through. - Robert Frost) As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.

I specialize in integrating various treatment modalities to help children, adolescents, adults and seniors improve their mental health and well-being. I work collaboratively with my clients to find the approach that best fits their needs. I am also a strong advocate for individuals with all types of “abilities.” I am skilled at working with clients from diverse backgrounds and cultures.

Are you looking for answers for yourself, your child, or your aging loved one? Do you have questions about your diagnosis, thinking, memory, attention, or emotions?

Navigating a child's educational, social and emotional development often is quite challenging. It is Dr. Hahn’s passion to come alongside families on their journey. She provides comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations that includes a collaborative approach (i.e., schools and other providers) to provide diagnostic clarity and effective treatment interventions.

I have an objective, honest and straight forward approach. I'm easy to talk to, approachable, and self-disclose when necessary. I will be active and collaborative in our work together.

I believe strongly that clients come in all different shapes and sizes and from different walks of life. Therefore, I do not have an ideal client, as my wish is to help anyone who needs it regardless of their experiences, needs, and goals. I welcome the experiences I will gain from having diverse clients.

If things are hard for you or your family, you are not alone. Are you trying everything but things still aren't working? Is your child struggling, discouraged or behaving in a way you didn't expect? It's easy to feel like you're doing something wrong. Not necessarily. Many children (and adults) need strategies that match their learning style, or that need adjusting as life changes. With challenges like ADHD, oppositional behavior or Autism, navigating the world can be even harder, especially in our current situation. I believe we all have strengths to celebrate and room for growth. You deserve the best life has to offer.

Central to the client's therapeutic goals is the desire to unearth the positive aspects of their life.
