Couples Therapists in Princeton, NJ

Do you feel misunderstood? Do you have trouble communicating? As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I help couples turn their relationship around by helping them improve their communication and resolve conflicts with videos, personality tests, role plays and other tools to bring about rapid change. Do you need to talk to someone? I work with clients on relationship issues, compulsive overeating, depression and anxiety,etc. What sets me apart from other therapists is my ability to keep clients on a systematic approach to change with a focused, short term program to help them achieve their goals quickly.

A meaningful and attuned connection between therapist and client is the best predictor of a successful treatment. My first goal in our therapy is to develop a good understanding of your perspective, concerns and needs. I believe in working collaboratively with you to move in the direction you most wish to go. My areas of practice include psychotherapy for adolescents, adults, couples and families. I also provide consultation to study abroad programs and supervision for mental health professionals.

I assist adults, teenagers and children to improve the quality of their lives by identifying and resolving issues themselves and in relationships with others. I help people to know that having problems is normal, but that it also normal to resolve problems. People learn that by taking control of their lives, they reduce depression, anxiety and anger.

I have over 15 years of experience working with adolescents, adults and couples on a variety of issues, like anxiety, depression, addictive behavior and relationship conflicts.

I work with individuals, couples and families, to help them overcome difficulties and build strength. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, difficulties with life transitions, and communication and relational struggles. "Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength" - Sigmund Freud.

My goal in working with all who come into my office, be it child, adolescent or adult is healing. Healing, I believe moves us beyond the resolution of symptoms to a deeper, more authentic understanding of ourselves and of life. I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where people can allow their true selves to emerge, whether they are 4 or 74 years old.

Adjusting to life transitions, interpersonal struggles, or needing to look inward are compelling reasons to seek therapy. As a therapist with 20+ years of experience, I establish a confidential, trusting relationship and help individuals, couples , and families cope and move forward. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and transparent, informed by advanced training in treating trauma, evidence-based Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), Accelerated Experiential Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), and family therapy.

I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with individuals and couples from different backgrounds. Mental health can be compromised by chronic stress that negatively affects our mind and body. Stress can result from living challenging workplace environments, family difficulties, personal emotional problems, the experience loss or trauma. I have particular expertise in helping those living in intense high pressure environments stressors that may have caused depression and anxiety, identity concerns, relationship problems, workplace conflicts or academic difficulties, family problems, and serious mental health challenges.

From an early age, we all learn ways to cope with stress, change, and new relationships. Sometimes, familiar coping strategies, which may have served you well in the past, are no longer effective as life inevitably changes. You may feel "stuck" in these moments and at a loss for how to move forward. I work to provide a safe therapy space to explore feelings of sadness, worry, and uncertainty. Together, we can develop new coping strategies and create a plan for positive change that feels meaningful to you.

We all face difficult times. These difficulties, which can take many forms, are also motivators for positive change.

Utilizing techniques based on your concerns, history, and personality, I work with a range of issues including: anxiety, depression, trauma, academic/occupational stress, relationship difficulties, social anxiety, andAutistic Spectrum Disorders.

Do you feel stuck in the past, afraid to live your life, or lack of motivation? Do you feel like low self esteem or insecurity are holding you back? Are there unresolved issues in your relationships with your parents or your partner? We can focus on what you need to break the patterns and move forward.

I work with adults, older adults, couples , and college students. My areas of expertise include depression, anxiety and relationship issues. I'm also interested in women's issues and assertiveness. I tailor therapy to each individual client, rather than taking a "one size fits all" approach. So, with one person, therapy might focus on solving some current problem or crisis, for another it might be learning stress management techniques, and for another it could be working to resolve issues and trauma from earlier in life. Most often, it's a little, or a lot, of all of these things.

The ideal client typically has family or interpersonal relationship conflicts and/or poor boundaries. Also, at times the ideal client has a history of childhood trauma or childhood conflicts that the client has not processed.

Also, I would want to explore with the client what the client considers healthy and unhealthy boundaries and be able to create healthier boundaries in these relationships.
