Therapists in Jersey City, NJ

I enjoy working with people who are ready to face some of their challenges and are also willing to explore themselves. I am interested in developing a partnership where we are able to develop steps to get you where you want to be.

My goal is to support and empower you on your journey towards increased connection with your body, your mind, and with others. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image concerns as well as specializing in treating symptoms of depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use disorders. I strongly believe in meeting clients where they are with a non-judgmental and affirming approach. I view clients as the experts of their own lives and believe that the therapeutic process should be collaborative.

How we perceive something will directly impact our emotional and behavioral responses. Learning to understand the process of perception will offer ongoing opportunities for an individual to enact change in his or her life. In my practice, I draw from my intensive training in both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to teach these fundamental skills to clients and help them to achieve their goals.

Maybe others would look at you and think everything is fine, great even - but inside, you struggle. You might consider yourself an over-achiever or people-pleaser, even if you come off as independent. We'll define the main issues in your life, whether based in the past/present/future and identify strategies to help you feel less stressed in the day to day, while also exploring your experiences to gain a deeper understanding of the story of how you came to be who you are, and write the story you want for your life moving forward.

Are you struggling to find a sense of calm and clarity in your life? Offering individualized approach to each client, I will address your mental health needs. Get the support and care you need in order to find inner peace, create a balanced lifestyle, and free your mind. Please email me and I'll respond to you within one business day!

Bilingual and Accepting New Clients - As a therapist, my goal is to provide you with warmhearted understanding and a comprehensible plan to meet your goals. This could mean working on anxiety or depression, improving your relationships and overcoming life changes. This may also mean helping you take pleasure of life, regardless of what surrounds you. I have been providing therapy to individual adults and children, as well as couples and families.

I am a psychotherapist with a passion for supporting people through difficult transitions in their lives. This can come in a variety of forms whether it be adjusting to a new job, becoming a first-time parent, being diagnosed with a serious illness, as well as a range of other things. My goal is to help you gain a better understanding of your feelings, mood, and behaviors throughout these transitions, and in turn, help you to better manage and cope. Therapy can also be a place to explore strategies for regaining control and moving forward.

My deepest commitment is to help you find hope, healing, and transformation. I've had the privilege of walking alongside individuals from diverse backgrounds, including new mothers, children, teenagers, married couples, and people working through anxiety, trauma, grief, body image or eating disorders, and major life transitions. I prioritize the well-being and growth of each client and I provide unwavering support and guidance through life's challenges.

I believe that the most important aspect of counseling is a positive therapeutic relationship based upon trust, safety, empathy and understanding. In creating such a therapeutic relationship, I employ a person-centered approach designed to give you the power to heal your own life. This is based upon the idea that you are the biggest expert in your life and that I am here to help you uncover the solutions to the issues that are troubling you. I will provide you with unconditional positive regard, which means that we will establish a therapeutic relationship built on understanding, trust, and confidence.

Welcome to my practice. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and help adults struggling with a variety of issues including anxiety, stress and life transitions, as well as those who are simply interested in self-exploration. No matter what brings you to pursue support at this time, I prioritize establishing a trusting, safe and respectful space in session and strive to help you get out of therapy whatever it is you are seeking from the experience.

Your existence is resistance. There are systems in place that make us feel like we are not ever doing enough, but I want to encourage you to have compassion for yourself. You are resilient and have made it this far using the methods that have worked for you. Our work together will explore who you are in relation to self, your loved ones, and the world around you, and finding sustainable practices centered in compassion, freedom and joy. I have experience working with adults/older adults on varied topics like: depression, anxiety, life transitions, sexuality/gender/racial identity, grief, and varied immigrant family structures.
