Out of Network Therapists in Lambertville, NJ

Over the years in my work with children, couples, families, as well as those struggling with substance use and other difficulties, I think about rocks. Specifically, rocks that weigh us down emotionally, due to difficult childhood experiences, troubling relationships, and from events or challenges one faces in their lives. Many clients come into counseling with the belief that they are inherently flawed. Inevitably, during our work together we uncover some of the rocks that weigh them down emotionally. The resulting awareness can be quite effective in relieving or reducing one from those old self-defeating messages.

If you're looking for a therapist, then you've already taken the first step in identifying that something in your life isn't working. The next step is finding someone with experience treating your concerns and who is a good fit for you. If you are seeking help for anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, or if you are feeling overwhelmed by COVID-19 or feeling burned out by managing too many things in your life- please reach out and call me.

When a personal crisis, life transition, or relationship issue happens, it's wise to seek capable support, professional guidance, and competent counsel. Feel free to contact Dr. Ed Adams for a day or evening appointment if you or someone you know is looking for this kind of experienced professional. I've been in private practice over 25 years. While each day I work with women and couples, I've developed a strong expertise working with men. When a man finds a safe and dignified environment to express himself with someone who understands the male world, he will often begin the process of change and growth.

We often move through life carrying wounds that prevent us from living life fully. I value providing you with a safe, judgment free zone, where you can embark on a personal journey to deeply explore and heal from the issues that have fueled your life struggles. I take special interest in treating trauma stemming from either childhood or adulthood as well as relationship difficulties including attachment patterns and relationship compatibility. I am also well versed in a wide array of mental health issues including depression, anxiety, sleep, and body image issues.

You may be reexamining your priorities in life or finally feeling motivated to address longstanding relationship issues. Many people are coping with the trauma of having lived and lost through the pandemic or navigating the anxieties and excitement associated with a return to normalcy. Whether you have struggled with mental health issues before or you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or loneliness for the first time, everyone needs someone to talk to these days. We will work together to help you find resilience and strength.

Are you in transition? Feeling stuck in your life or relationship? Have your usual coping strategies become ineffective, leaving you feeling anxious, fearful, depressed or angry? Do you feel that there must be more to life than what you are presently experiencing? Are you experiencing emotional upheaval that is impacting the quality of your life as a result of critical or chronic illness ?

Are you ready to feel more serene, peaceful, and connected? Are you on your healing path, seeking support to reach your potential? If so, I can help you recognize your strengths and to move forward, all the while working together in an atmosphere of acceptance and kindness. This helps you to grow on many levels - mind, body and spirit. I have 30+ years experience as a psychologist, author and professional speaker. I work people with trauma/childhood abuse, eating disorders, addiction and many other concerns. If I can't help, chances are I know someone who can.

I will provide you with presence, openness and a genuine commitment to healing. If you are reading this you may be considering facing a problem in your life. This takes courage and a willingness to face something that is real and present. I have been most drawn to the view that we are shaped by our unconscious being and the decisions we make are greatly influenced by things we are not even aware of. Knowing this can help us be gentle and kind with ourselves as we approach the therapeutic process.

Feeling overwhelmed or dissatisfied with your life? If you have experienced trauma, whether recurring or as an isolated incident, sometimes the typical stresses of a normal day can provoke anxiety, fear, anger, or withdrawal. Therapy can give you the tools to deal with life's challenges and can enable you to minimize your stress levels while continuing your personal growth. I support you in exploring ways to increase happiness and well-being while you integrate lasting, positive changes in your relationships with others, and most importantly, with yourself.

Your journey for a more fulfilling life has begun. It is said that the most important factor for growth and change in therapy is the relationship between the client and the therapist. My style as a clinician is warm and welcoming. My philosophy is to let the client show me what he/she needs, and to move slowly and mindfully in a spirit of partnership. I believe when I listen closely and carefully to what someone shares, they will tell me where it hurts, and together, we discover how to transform the pain into a life of joy, peacefulness, and wellbeing. I see my role as a guide and teacher, bringing to you options and possibilitie.

After a successful career in the business world, I took the skills of social connection and project management and returned to school for my Master's to integrate my life's experiences with a behavioral health education. I have gained clinical experience working with adults, couples and teens from diverse backgrounds in various settings. My practice philosophy is to walk alongside my clients in a relaxed setting and go through this journey of self-discovery together. You can change what's possible.

"Life may not get easier or more forgiving, but we can get stronger and more resilient." Growing up in today's society comes with many pressures and challenges that can have an enormous impact on our youth. Through a collaborative relationship, I will assist my client in reaching realistic and attainable goals. Through healthy coping skills they will learn to better handle life's everyday stressors. I understand that the decision to pursue therapy can be a difficult process. It is my goal to provide a safe place for my clients so that they may bring out the best in themselves.
