Therapists in Old Bridge, NJ

Often, we don’t take good care of our mental health as we do for our physical health. But our mental health needs much care as our physical health. Untreated mental health issues can be as serious as cancer or any other physical health disease. With over 10 years experience working in the field of mental health, I have come to realize that everything that we do in life begins with our minds, and taking care of it sets the stage for growth, which helps us to become the better version of ourselves. I'm bi-cultural, bi-lingual, fluent in English & Ghanaian Akan languages. I have a compassionate and collaborative style. Get in touch!

I am licensed marriage and family therapist in New Jersey and New York, and the coordinating clinician and owner of Thrive Counseling Center. Couples & Relationships are my areas of expertise. I have been in private practice since 2001. Relationships are a struggle and amazing at the same time. Learning to show up intentionally to the people we love doesn't just happen. It's a learned process to relate well with each other. Often I need to help couples move through anger and stress to create space for connection and love.

The purpose of hypnosis as a therapeutic technique is to help you understand and gain more control over your behavior, emotions or physical well-being. I been successfully helping people for 20 years to overcome anxiety, pain, and addictions. Hypnotherapy is helpful to improve your performances and to have a better life.

The quality of relationships is at the heart of my work. Whether you are going through a separation or divorce, loss, doubts about a new love interest, parenting or step-parenting issues, pain of an affair, an upsetting move, or a life-stage transition, I can help you move through and beyond the pain or challenges of your situation. I will listen deeply, ask meaningful questions, help make sense of what you are going through, and share both tears and laughter along the way - no matter what the pain, disappointment, confusion or anger you may experience.

Are you someone who shows up for others, gives grace, and shows compassion but rarely has enough left in their jar to give to themselves?

You owe it to yourself to put your needs first and live a life of purpose.

I will work with you to create an emotional roadmap to guide your unique treatment.

Welcome to Sol Center! The name Sol Center was created with multiple meanings in mind. Sol means sun and is pronounced soul; the spiritual part of someone.

I believe that a client that comes to session in good faith to genuinely seek treatment is most likely to achieve their therapeutic goals. Any client who takes that first step to therapy is showing great courage. Once in therapy, simply being themselves and being open to the process will lead to exploration, goal setting and positive change leading to a happier, healthier way of life.

SEEING CLIENTS DURING COVID VIA VIDEO SESSIONS USING HIPPA COMPLIANT PLATFORM. While on a life journey toward meaning & happiness, sometimes we need to sort through the issues that hold us back or are a heavy weight to carry. I see therapy as a place to do that sorting: in a safe & trusting environment, to go through our traveler's bag, keep what's our strengths & passions, resolve the entangled conflicts, and maybe leave behind what no longer needs to be carried within our hearts. I would love to be part of this journey for you.

I am a Licensed Social Worker with a passion for decreasing the stigma surrounding mental health and promoting the health and well being of my clients.

My ideal client is actively contemplating making changes in their life. They are prepared to discuss, explore, and process their trauma history and to find meaning in their experiences. They are able to work towards identifying how they would like to see their quality of life change (for example, reduce and better manage anxiety) and are prepared to take the necessary steps to do so. Additionally, the client can tolerate being challenged when their thinking or behaviors are inconsistent with their goals.

My ideal client is someone who comes to therapy in a time of need. They might be experiencing anxiety due to life changes and transitions or they might be experiencing symptoms of anxiety for the first time and be concerne as to where the anxiety came from. The client might be processing loss or grief from a loved one or past friendships and or relationships. My ideal client will have needs such as needing to identify coping skills to get through life stressors, assistance with reaching goals. As a therapist I would be able to provide the client with a objective perspective to bounce their ideas and situations off of.
