Out of Network Therapists in Lawrenceville, NJ

We have all been broken by life, fragmented by negative experiences, and sometimes we feel so broken that we are unable to pick up the pieces alone, but, fear not! Mental, emotional, spiritual, occupational, and social wellness is a process and not a state of mind. It is a level of perfection we ought to continually strive for, because those fragmented pieces of our lives CAN be put back together. Relationships CAN be mended, and CHANGE IS POSSIBLE, but it doesn't just happen; we have to be intentional. "We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." -MLK

Hi there! Welcome to my practice, SEED Services: Partners for Counseling & Wellness. We use evidence based approaches, including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and the Gottman Method for couples counseling to name a few.

We also specialize in couples counseling and working with relational grief, or losses due to life transitions and "post"-COVID living.
