Therapists in Kinnelon, NJ

I work with adolescents, adults, couples and parents struggling with overwhelming feelings, infertility, birth trauma, pregnancy/postpartum issues, trauma, anxiety, depression or general life obstacles. I believe that the way you view yourself, your relationships with others, and the world is a gateway to the therapeutic experience. My clients would describe my warmth, compassion, use of humor and realism as a recipe for connection and safety within our relationship. I am an active participant during sessions and willing to be vulnerable to move my client to a place of change.

In my 25 years of practice, I have evolved a number of specializations:couples therapy; women's issues;dealing with anxiety and depression--including post-partum depression; and facing the challenges of pregnancy loss and infertility. I have had extensive post-graduate training in couples therapy and have developed a lively and effective way of helping couples in distress get "unstuck" and move into a more satisfying and respectful relationship with one another.

As a licensed psychologist for 17 years, I'm devoted to the treatment of children, adolescents, adults, and families. I've worked in various medical and educational settings and am licensed in NJ, NY and FL. I treat children, adolescents, and adults with a broad range of psychological and behavioral disorders, including: depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, school refusal, divorce, adolescent issues, & behavior disorders. I am skilled in psychological testing of children, adolescents, and their families and conduct psychoeducational evaluations for school placement. I am available for in-person and virtual sessions.

I treat depression, anxiety, relationships, disappointments and losses, parenting, couples, individuals and families. Conflict and distress can stem from many sources-life upheavals, separation, divorce, trauma, death, unexpected disappointments, mourning what we have lost or never had. Therapy is a process of Self discovery-understanding what makes you-you and Your unique personal issues. My role is to help you unlock whatever has or is preventing you from reaching your personal goals and the quality of life you desire. Together we will explore pathways to change or acceptance to free you to move forward..

Welcome. I am here to help you. There are times and stages of our lives where we are feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, confused, or proactively seeking clarity on specific issues, and in need of deeper insight into how to cope with challenges. I use a collaborative and experiential approach, honoring your cultural strengths to support you through what motivates you and triggers you, and identify effective and meaningful ways of being. In psychotherapy, you have a safe space to share your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Sometimes we just need professional guidance to get us to the right level of understanding to potentiate change.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor in the state of New Jersey treating a range of mental health disorders. (I have a bunch of stuff I specialize in, I'll get into that later). My unique style is what sets me apart from the rest. Clients have told me that I am so different than any other therapist they have ever seen. I will probably be in sweats and you will be greeted by Nelly, my therapy puppy.Food, Drinks, Massage Chair, Fountains, TV, Music, is all in the waiting room to make you feel comfy and more relaxed. I know the 1st time can be scary. We welcome you with open arms.

Hello and welcome! I know sometimes reaching out for support can be challenging or scary, unsure of what to expect, but we are here to walk with you through the journey. We believe it is important to meet you where you are at and provide you with the support, empathy, and compassion needed to help you reach your goals. Each client is different and thus it is important that each session be tailored to specific needs so that he/she can feel comfortable and work towards understanding himself/herself today in order to reach a brighter future tomorrow.

All of us face challenges in life. Finding help at these times can feel overwhelming, and I appreciate the difficulty of taking the first step to reach out. I am a clinical social worker with training in psychodynamic, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral approaches. I have had the privilege of working with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and life situations including people with anxiety and mood disorders, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, fertility challenges, and people with chronic medical conditions and their loved ones.

My passion in counseling is to create a relationship built on safety, trust, and hope, where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. I consider it a privilege to be able to walk with someone through their fears and hurts, and help them to experience healing and restoration. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a certified clinical supervisor. Much of my work involves working with a diverse population in a state psychiatric hospital setting I currently provide academic instruction for graduate students at both Rutgers University School of Social Work and Aurora University.

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.

I treat a wide range of clients of all genders and sexual expressions for sexuality and relationship concerns. The foundation of my practice was built working with survivors of sexual assault and abuse, helping them transition into holistic sexual health for themselves, as well as sustaining intimate relationships with others. Today my practice still includes working with survivors, though I also see individuals and couples with issues such as compulsivity with pornography/sex, infidelity, fertility concerns, pain disorders, low desire, nontraditional sexual expression exploration and consensual non-monogamy.

I view counseling as an opportunity to come alongside my clients and partner with them as they journey toward discovering a life of meaning and purpose. Through empathy, humor, and warmth, I aim to create and hold a safe space for my clients to begin the journey inward. My biggest joy is walking alongside my clients as they begin to realize their strength and resilience to find solutions to the issues they are facing.

When you have forgotten to stop and smell the flowers and your unaware of your surroundings and you know there is hope but it’s just not happening… I’d like to walk tin you in your recovery…
