Therapists in Glen Ridge, NJ

Wether you find yourself repeating old patterns of behavior, experiencing anxiety or struggling with trauma related depression, I want to learn about you including where you feel stuck and explore what it would be like to thrive. As a highly sensitive person I am particularly attuned in our sessions and strive to create an environment free of judgement where you can feel safe to be vulnerable as you explore paths that foster growth and healing. My belief as a holistic clinician is that both our minds and bodies store trauma from past experiences and should be explored as interconnected.

Starting therapy both a daunting and exciting process. I will create a safe environment where you can feel comfortable in moments of discomfort. I strongly believe the relationship between therapist and client is the primary factor to change and growth within the individual.

I maintain a strengths-based/humanistic approach to psychotherapy, while using a number of clinical tools (EMDR, Hypnotherapy, & Meditation) to cope with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings.

Soul loss is what we go through when our early wounds and traumas restrict our energy and impede our ability to live freely and joyfully. I can help you retrieve your lost energy and rewire old patterns, so you can more fully embody who you were meant to be. Pain is often an invitation to learn more about our feelings so we can evolve and expand. I use a mind-body approach (somatic experiencing/ gestalt) with a relational lens (psychodynamic/ attachment/ Jungian) and energy healing. If you feel stuck after years of talk therapy, I can help. I see children, adolescents, adults, couples & families online only at the moment.

You live in a quiet state of desperation. On paper your life looks really good. Others see you and think you have everything going for you. They want to be like you and think their life would be easier if they were. You are outgoing and wear a smile. But they don’t understand what they can’t see. They don’t see you. They don’t see the pain that you feel. You know that other people won’t understand. You learned a long time ago to hide it. Everyday you wake up and put on a mask. You push yourself harder to accomplish more. Yet you know that none of it will work.
