Hello, My Name is Kelsey Bisson, LCSW. I work at Balance and Thrive Mental Health Counseling and Psychoeducation Center. I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of NJ with 10 years of experience working closely with individuals, groups, and families. I specialize with adults across the lifespan with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and the effects of aging and illness on individuals and families, with specialized training in treating our older adult population and their caregivers.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, by the State Board of Marriage and Family Therapy Examiners of the State of New Jersey. I hold a Master degree in Clinical Counseling from William Paterson University. Providing a supportive and safe space for the process of healing to occur is of the utmost importance to me as a therapist. I serve adults who may be struggling with mood and/or personality disorders. Those include but are not limited to: depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders including PTSD, substance use, grief and loss, self-growth, relationships and interpersonal stressors and domestic violence.

In understanding that individuals in pain or having a particular challenge in life may make only one attempt at reaching out for help, I strive to welcome and set at ease every one who contacts me. Most therapy patients are ordinary people that have hit a bump in the road of life and cannot get past it on their own. My commitment, through goal directed therapy, is to help those people return to their optimal level of coping with the sometimes mild, sometimes severe challenges that life brings their way and guide them back to a sense of well being.

My mission is to patiently support people in seeking and finding joy that eludes them, helping them to empower themselves by using psychotherapy & hypnotherapy, working with the mind, body, emotions and our spirit that makes us unique and a part of the whole of humanity. Our therapeutic alliance encourages a look at the world in a new, safe way. Hypnosis and work in the subconscious is the eye to the soul. I'm an expert hypnotherapist with numerous hypnosis certifications, in private psychotherapy practice since 2005 and a practicing clinical hypnotherapist since 1995, located in NJ.

I work in an eclectic manner with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety disorders, trauma, loss, PTSD, at-risk behaviors, relationship issues and life transitions. I offer a supportive and interactive experience for clients, providing the most appropriate modality and pace for each client. For over 30 years, I have enabled teenagers, adults and older adults to master the skills needed to manage emotions and navigate life's challenges. I do assessments to verify people needing "Therapy Pets" for travel and Clinical Assessments for Bariatric Surgery. I offer Equine Assisted Psychotherapy as an alternate experiential approach or as an adjunct modality to traditional talk therapy.

I have respect for any individual who is willing to engage in psychotherapy in order to work toward a better life. That respect is at the core of a strong clinical relationship, which I strive to achieve with every client. I believe my role as a psychologist is to allow my clients to be heard, and to help them navigate the change process in a way that makes sense for them.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and one of the owners of a group practice called Inspire Wellness. Inspire Wellness is made up of 25 clinicians with various specialties. We have offices throughout Bergen County offering therapy, Sport Psychology, Neuropsychological Testing, and Forensic Psychology. Working in a group decreases the likelihood that we run a waiting list and allows clients to find a clinician with the specialty and approach that fits their specific need. We have a full office staff that are able and willing to answer your questions and will assist you in dealing with your insurance needs.

With 30 years of clinical experience I offer a confidential, warm , caring environment in which life's difficulties can be explored and sensitively addressed. My style is interactive and solution oriented and I am told I bring wisdom and a sense of humor to the relationship.

The belief here is that we are born with the ability to self-generate the changes we might be seeking at any point in the life-span. Therapy, then, is collaboration: client and therapist cooperatively removing those "inner" obstacles that can block the natural growth process--that can make us feel so dishearteningly stuck or so hopelessly overwhelmed. Therapy represents a challenging opportunity. The expectation is always that my clients will find reward in this focused collaboration, as well as in its results--and in as few sessions as possible.

I am a PhD Clinical Psychologist licensed to practice in New Jersey. My practice has 2 NJ locations, in Mountain Lakes and in Englewood. I work with individuals, couples and families. After more than 20 years as a psychotherapist, I still feel passionate about my work. I love working with people. I continue to be fascinated and moved by people's ability to grow and change, and I feel privileged to be invited into their world. I believe that, working together to understand the difficulties that they are facing, we can find more authentic and more rewarding ways of living life and being in relationships.
