Empire BlueCross BlueShield Therapists in Princeton, NJ

As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” I believe that every individual has within themselves the tools they need to take actions towards creating the changes that will align with their values and purpose. Being a bicultural individual, I am able to see things from two different perspectives, which helps me remain open and adaptable to various personal values and ways of life. I pride myself on my ability to create a space where you would feel comfortable and understood to express your concerns and emotions freely.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I address a variety of issues and challenges that impact individuals including children, adolescents, adults. I also do extensive work with couples, families and business professionals. I have demonstrated successful results working with those individuals who struggle with anger management, anxiety, ADHD, Aspergers, bipolar disorder, conduct disorder, depression, dysthymia, schizophrenia, gambling addiction, sex addiction and substance abuse. I also have significant experience with career counseling for business professionals.

Similar to how people workout their bodies, the brain also needs to be exercised and maintained. Therapy allows you to not only better yourself, situation or life but it allows you to cleanse your mind and stay mentally healthy. Mental health is something that can impact an individual’s life in numerous ways; such as daily activities, relationships, personality or even cause physical symptoms to arise. Coming from a culturally diverse background, my mission professionally is to create awareness for mental health in minority communities that may view mental health as a taboo.

I believe strongly that we all have the capacity for positive change, no matter where we start out. Therapy should provide a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space in which clients can explore new goals, solutions, and ways of being. I seek to empower clients by fostering greater awareness and understanding of their thoughts, behaviors, environments, and interpersonal patterns. My approach is tailored to each person and their needs, but often incorporates concepts from Cognitive-Behavioral, Interpersonal, and Person-Centered therapies, as well as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction techniques.

Are you struggling with challenges that seem insurmountable? Are they causing you to feel overwhelmed, hopeless and isolated? My goal is to help you feel empowered by providing you with the tools and skills to enhance and improve your life. The therapeutic process is collaborative and should provide an environment for you to explore and identify patterns of behavior, provide clarity and seek resolution. It is important for me to create a safe and non-judgmental environment for you to be able to share your thoughts, feelings and experiences. I support you as you process and cope with stressful and traumatic life events.

TELEHEALTH AVAILABLE! Does nothing relieve your obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, or anxiety? Come explore the latest innovations in emotional healing. Most psychotherapy methods rely upon talking, but talking alone is not always enough. The most effective procedures bypass the talking process and meet emotional needs at a deeper level. By addressing core emotional needs with non-touch, body-oriented procedures in conjunction with counseling, my approach offers direct access to the healthy person inside. I enjoy discovering the real person behind the emotional problems.

Even when you get adequate sleep, you still drag the next day, consumed by worry, insecurities, and self-doubt? If this sounds like you, my holistic approach to psychotherapy will help you remove negative thought patterns, emotional blocks, and self-made limitations that may be holding you back from living your best life!

The Integrative Therapy Institute of New Jersey (ITI-NJ) is a group practice in clinical and counseling psychology that provides psychotherapy services for individuals, couples, and families. ITI-NJ operates at a number of locations throughout the state of NJ and the great majority of our therapists are in-network with all major insurance plans.

We offer a secure, web based, video service where you can hold online therapy sessions with a counselor. Are you a parent and concerned your teen is becoming more and more unhappy? Is it difficult to talk to or connect with your teen? You’re at the end of your rope and every conversation ends up in a fight. Are you worried your teen is isolating themselves? It seems like a door is slammed in your face whenever you try to find out what’s wrong? You dread family gatherings because you know it rarely ends well. Are you up at night worrying they are becoming more and more distant and may hurt themselves if something doesn't change?

As a licensed professional counselor I provide clients with a safe space to share their concerns, struggles, or challenges. I believe the therapeutic relationship should be collaborative and built on warmth and trust. Together we will work to identify issues, past and present, with the goal of stability, healing and empowerment. Offering a holistic perspective, I specialize in perinatal and postpartum mental health, trauma and addiction (i.e. substance/alcohol abuse/dependency).
