Therapists in Newark, NJ

There are a lot of things that happen within us while we engage in our normal day to day lives. From our physiological processes to our mental and emotional processes. We spend a great deal functioning completely unaware of our internal world. Interestingly enough it is what’s inside of us that is the precursor to our behaviors and physical health condition. As a psychodynamic therapist I aim to help you come into contact with your inner person or what I refer to as your inner child. I review your childhood history to make sense of your current challenges. A lot of the ways we think and behave come from childhood learnings.

We often perceive and respond to the world around us in ways that have become normal or familiar but may no longer be beneficial to us. This can lead to feelings of sadness, anxiety, guilt, or anger. Life can be difficult and you may feel that there are many obstacles in your way. At times, we may need a nonjudgmental and understanding person to help us through life’s obstacles.

English/Portuguese - Do you feel that you are not as happy as you think you could be? This happens because, usually, people keep insisting on the same things waiting for different results, which is not going to happen. Maybe you think that this is the only path to finding happiness. You can be experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, family issues, mood swings, and no matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to find a way out. You have been brave in finding ways to deal with everything on your own. However, recognizing that we need help and asking for it, is even more courageous and resilient.
