Family Therapy in Haddonfield, NJ

Peace of Mind. The goal of therapy is the relief of emotional distress, empowering you to approach life challenges with a feeling of calm and increased competence. We can work to reduce anxiety, improve mood, learn coping skills and calming strategies. These tools can be applied to a variety of issues including parenting skills, childhood behavior, maternal attachment, relationships, medical stressors, anxiety or depression. The current situation with COVID -19 is adding a unique sense of anxiety for adults and children. I am offering telehealth video sessions to provide therapy from the safety of your own home.

My ideal client is a geriatric client struggling with adjustment to the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social aspects of aging. I also treat caregivers and those suffering grief before or after the loss of a loved one.

I have been practicing in the field for ten years. I have a person centered approach to therapy, mixed with cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and Gestalt therapy when it is called for. I do mental health counseling, addiction counseling, couples counseling, individual counseling, and marriage and family counseling. I see clients of all ages from children to senior citizens. As we have to continue to change and adapt to a new way of counseling, I am including tele therapy in my practice.

Life can be stressful. Learning to stop questioning, judging and criticizing yourself, and finding the confidence to move forward can be difficult.

I will create a safe space where we can work together on the struggles you face. My passion is to help people transform themselves and heal from the past.

Your child or family member just came out as transgender. You are in shock and disbelief. You have a mixture of feelings. You wonder: "Is this just a phase?" "What will people think?"

Experienced treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, OCD, PTSD, Gender Identity Disorder, Trauma, Substance Abuse and Addictions. I work with anyone - not just the LGBTQ community.

Are anxiety, stress, or trauma holding you back? Are you living your most healthy and authentic life? Let's figure out what is in your way.

I work exclusively with women on an individual basis, to address issues ranging from depression/anxiety to body acceptance. I am a certified Intuitive Eating counselor, as well as a Duke-trained Integrative Health Coach. I work with women to help with life transitions, assisting them with discovering themselves again, whether it is through learning to trust themselves around food, taking the time they don’t think that they have, or helping them to tune into what is behind their self-sabotaging behaviors. Traumatic life events or mental health issues can sometimes hold us back, and I help clients to move forward on their terms.

Falling in love is easier than staying in love. Life can steamroll even the strongest, most loving people. With a series of small right actions, you can heal your emotional & sexual wounds. Individually or as a couple, you can learn how to lower your stress, practice empathy and compassion, strengthen connection and create sex worth wanting. As a Mindfulness Based Relationship Specialist and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I’ll partner with you to help you decrease stress and increase connection, health, joy, meaning and fulfillment, in your life and in your relationships. Clients have described this work as “life changing”.

OCD is a heavy burden. And it feels even heavier when nothing seems to help, including therapy. Maybe you feel that OCD is just something you have to tolerate for the rest of your life. I don’t believe that “coping” is your only option. I believe OCD is treatable. And I believe you can make deep-seated and long-lasting change. Together, we’ll look beyond your diagnosis and subtype, and understand the beliefs that maintain the OCD in your life. This can be daunting, but I’ll be there with you every step of the way offering guidance and support.

You may know that your life or relationship isn’t where you want it to be but struggle to understand how to make it better. I work with highly motivated couples and individuals who want to gain a new understanding of themselves and their relationships, stop repeating patterns that no longer work for them and create a life and love that feels more meaningful. This includes learning how to manage what makes you tick or keeps you stuck, and how to make healthy authentic connections with others. Through Polyvagal Theory, EMDR and Sand Tray therapies, I use a trauma-informed, holistic lens in guiding you toward healing and change.

Do you remember when love and sex felt easier? When life felt more manageable? When you had more time and energy for self-care? Healthy relationships ultimately start with a healthy you. Working with individuals and couples, we can help you resolve relationship and life stressors so that you can feel happier and more fulfilled on a daily basis. Our practice has the added specialization of couples and sex therapy, allowing us to apply a holistic approach that supports personal growth and development along with building healthy relationships.

I enjoy working in a way that is both structured, easy-going and warm. Like Ghandi said, "No-one ever understood a truth about themselves unless it is spoken with kindness." It can be painful facing aspects of our lives that we have previously avoided or self-medicated. However, I do what I can to make this safe and to go at your pace instead of mine. Although it takes a lot of courage to come to therapy and talk about these underlying issues, in the long run, there is an equivalent sense of freedom and connection.
