Out of Network Therapists in Middletown, NJ

A lot of focus on people with anxiety and depression disorder. Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life. A majority of the people I work vary in what they know about themselves from just knowing somethings and wanting to fix it to others being forced by a friend, family member or just some stranger that passed along my name to someone. Range of symptoms from minor to discharges from high levels of care.

Change is a part of living. It can be exciting but also anxiety-provoking. For over 20 years, I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults not only to adapt to challenging life situations but to thrive and reach their potential for success and personal growth. Adults who were experiencing relationship issues, occupational stress, parenting challenges, ADHD, anxiety, and depression have found comfort, hope and support in therapy with me. Clients recognize my ability to help them move forward in their lives at a pace that makes sense for who they are and the needs they have when entering therapy.

If you're here, you already know that something is bothering you and you might need a little guidance, support, and most importantly, change. I can effectively guide you towards improving the problem areas of your life and overcome your struggles. Feeling down in the dumps? Worried? Ticked off? Got a difficult boss or co-worker? In a rocky relationship? I can help. If you're not sure what it is you want, I can assist you in clarifying that as well. I work with tweens to seniors, from straight to gay, and individualize my approach based on your needs

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Anxious? Depressed? Maybe you’re struggling in your relationship or recently suffered a loss. Whatever you’re going through, therapy can be an incredible resource to help you move forward. As a therapist, my goal is to be your own personal resource- someone that is there to support you wherever you are in your life. Any experience, relationship or conflict might be relevant to what’s happening to you now, and I’m here to help you explore them at a pace that's right for you.

Life can be extremely busy and trying at times, especially now with all of the sudden stressful changes in our lives, and we can feel as though we have too many roles to fill at once. This can create anxiety, depression, stress, and family issues. Having someone to help work through these difficulties can be extremely beneficial. I have much experience with various populations and age groups and provide my services in your home, as that is where people feel most comfortable and that is where many of life's challenges occur.

Are you feeling really low and no matter what you do you cannot get out of this funk? Is your stress level so high you feel like you can barely function? Do you feel your thoughts are constantly racing and consuming your life? Are you repeating the same negative relationship patterns? These may be symptoms of illnesses that may require professional attention. People underestimate the intense pain that one can feel from these and other issues. I have spent my career helping people feel better again. As hopeless or helpless as you may feel therapy can help. Allow me the privilege to assist you toward much deserved relief.

I am a licensed professional counselor with a proven track record of assisting individuals, couples and families overcome the challenges in their lives. The focus of treatment is to quickly find ways to alleviate distress and resolve the issues at hand while building strength and resilience in an environment of safety and understanding. Whatever the issue, however overwhelming the emotion there is a way forward and a path to a better experience of life.

We are all bright souls, but sometimes we lose our inner light along the way. We go through times in our lives where we feel unhappy, anxious or stuck. We experience a tragedy or a difficult situation that doesn't make sense to us. Or sometimes, we just want more out of life, but are not sure what that means, or how to get it. We all deserve to feel happy and fulfilled. I work with clients who know what is wrong and need guidance to improve it, as well as those who are not sure what the problem is but want to explore it and take steps to make it better. In short, I strive to help clients find their inner light again.

Does stress and uncertainty in your life have you feeling stuck? Have you found yourself second guessing decisions or held back by that annoying voice in your head of self-doubt? Taking back control of your life isn’t a solo mission. Sometimes we need a listening ear, a sounding board, a space to understand ourselves better, and a nudge in the right direction. With a compassionate, honest, and curious approach I can help you to feel confident and ready to tackle life’s challenges.

My goal is to create a calm, open, and non-judgemental space where individuals can grow and share. My techniques and approaches in therapy consider the individual needs of each client. I find it important for my clients to recognize and build upon their own strengths in order to heal and meet their goals.

Mental health is an important part of our daily lives. As a therapist, I have experience working with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, depression, challenges with self-esteem, and peer issues as well as young adults navigating life transitions. My goal is to empower and provide support through an individualized, trusting therapeutic relationship.

Knowing when to start therapy is not always clear. Are you feeling stuck? Struggling with a significant life transition or adapting to change? Maybe you are starting to realize that you just aren’t feeling yourself. Or perhaps you are becoming uncomfortable with your relationship with yourself or others. These feelings and thoughts are a sign that there is something within that needs attention. Psychotherapy is a profound means of self-discovery that can provide insight into ourselves, our relationships, and our behaviors. In psychotherapy, you give yourself the opportunity to explore- and begin a journey of feeling better.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably looking for help for yourself or someone you care about. By the time you turn to a professional for help, you have probably already tried a bunch of different things to try to manage the problem on your own. Maybe you are having a hard time figuring out what to do, or you just don’t have anyone in your life who understands what you’re going through. Struggling with your mental health can be incredibly lonely and can make you feel like you’re just not good enough. I want you to know that you don’t have to do it alone. Reach out today - I want to be a part of your journey to wellness.

As a graduate intern at Mind by Design Counseling, I provide online counseling under the direct supervision of Rebecca Sidoti, LCSW. My approach is rooted in understanding your individual needs & creating a space where you are heard and supported. Whether you're navigating life transitions, seeking coping strategies, or simply need a space to reflect, I'm here to help. I am experienced in work with children, teens and young adults who are seeking personal growth, relief from anxiety, stress, depression or burn-out. At MBD, I strive to offer affordable, impactful therapy, ensuring everyone has access to the support they deserve.

Do you feel like the only thing more exhausting than feeling blue is pretending that you're not? Do you feel like your worries are multiplying, and it's getting harder to contain them? Do you feel like a past traumatic experience intrudes into your daily functioning? I work with teens and adults (especially males) some of these thoughts and help them recapture a sense of hope and excitement. My goal is to help you live with uncertainty and feel confident that you can face whatever comes tomorrow. I use compassion and support to help you move forward and get unstuck, boost your confidence, and gain happiness.

As a therapist, I am focused on providing a safe and comfortable environment for you in an effective way that helps to facilitate change and healing. It is my belief that the combination of a trusting relationship paired with an empathetic and interactive approach can create a platform for personal growth that can allow you to reach your individualized goals. My role in this therapeutic process is to take a non-judgmental stance to motivate change through helping you identify, navigate, and cope effectively with unhealthy thoughts and behaviors.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have worked in a variety of settings including partial hospitalization, Children’s Mobile Response, addiction recovery services, school based counseling, and in-home therapy. As a multiculturally competent and bilingual therapist, I am most passionate about serving marginalized communities and those who often struggle to seek mental health treatment due to stigma. While I specialize in working with adolescents and adults in areas such as trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and substance abuse, I am also well-versed in targeting areas related to racial and cultural identity and trauma.

I treat chronic pain using Dr. John Sarno's work on Tension Myoneural Syndrome. TMS is due to unconscious repressed rage and conflicts developed during childhood. I deeply respect the human ability to surpass anger and strive to live life in a fuller capacity. I was trained under Dr. Arlene Feinblatt who had been the primary psychologist for Dr. Sarno since 1973 to do TMS treatment. I work alongside with a TMS physician, Dr. Paul Gwozdz at the Family Practice in Somerset, New Jersey. Together we help patients cope with chronic pain following Dr. Sarno's techniques.

I enjoy working with clients who are open to learning how to manage, cope and regain motivation to return to everyday living. Together we will develop healthy coping mechanisms and start a routine to help with reducing symptoms to allow you to live a better life.
