Christian Therapists in Ramsey, NJ

You're a woman struggling with anxiety, overthinking and self-doubt. Your brain is on overdrive. Like you’re hardwired to overthink and overanalyze. Each day brings more thinking; more worrying. Comparing yourself to others fuels feelings of not being “good enough.” You compensate by being the reliable one, the dependable one; overextending yourself to avoid judgment and conflict. You edit yourself, take blame and responsibility, and overly apologize. Life feels like a constant performance, sacrificing yourself for the sake of others. It’s hard to say exactly when it all started, but you’ve done it so long that you’ve lost yourself.

Are you ready to move beyond simply "coping?" Have the last two years left you longing for more peace? Counseling may increase your ability to relax and experience peace, help you learn to better understand yourself and others, and remove inner obstacles to realizing your dreams. It may improve your ability to build the kind of relationships you want, strengthen your ability to grow through loss, and support you as you rebuild your life after losing a spouse.

As a therapist, coach, and founder of Fearless Love, specializing in relationships and intimacy, I work with clients on a variety of modern love challenges including courtship, communication tools, conflict resolution, narcissistic abuse, divorce, betrayal, and recovery. I support my clients to transition through stress, anxiety, grief, loss, and trauma to create a life they love. My mission is to educate and empower my clients to live more authentically, aligned with their values and purpose, and to reach their full potential.

Do you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stressed out and doubtful? I partner with individuals and parents who feel anxious, overwhelmed or uncertain and bring them to calm, confident and hopeful. I work with both men and women using empathy and listening. I will work alongside you, empower you and guide you toward freedom from guilt and worry. With specialized training in peripartum mental health I can support you as you explore parenting and recognize when the "baby blues" have become more than you can handle. Maybe its anxiety about your baby's safety or your ability to take care of a little one. Are you ready to gain freedom?

I have extensive experience working with adolescents, families, couples, athletes, and LGBTQ identified people and their families in multiple spaces including school settings, alternative school environments, professional spaces, and private practice. My focus is working with parents, couples, families, adolescents, and children who present with a range of concerns including grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, gender identity, emotional dysregulation, postpartum, infertility, and athletic performance.

Feeling connected to and understood provides the foundation for any healthy relationship, including the therapeutic relationship. It is my goal to provide a supportive, trusting and non-judgmental environment in order to foster greater self-awareness, insight and personal growth and fulfillment. One parent of a 13-year old client said: "During one of the darkest and most difficult times in our lives, in you came ready to listen, guide, support, and be a beacon of light in an otherwise dark time. My son immediately felt safe with you and trusted you. That is a true gift and says so much about you both personally and professionally."

If you are struggling with life's ups and downs, if you are feeling stuck, if your struggling with your relationships, if anxiety is an issue, or you are experiencing depression give me a call and we can work together to understand the issue and help you move forward

I offer individual, couples and family counseling. Do you want a breakthrough in your life? Are you tired of living in the same pattern and desire healing and restoration? If you are reading this than you have made the choice for change and through therapy, I can help you get there. When you surrender yourself in therapy, you will see a transformation that leads to hope and reaching your goals. I am trained and experienced to lead you through this journey toward healing and wholeness. If you are facing anxiety, depression or have past or present wounds from sexual abuse, it is never hopeless. Therapy works, this is your time.

My desire in counseling is to create a relationship built on safety, trust, and hope, where people feel accepted and challenged to grow in new and meaningful ways. I provide an environment that is safe for my clients, in turn that they may acquire new, positive coping skills and as well work on strengths that they already possess. My experience in a psychiatric facility has given me knowledge, comfortability, and passion to help those who struggle with mental health, addictive disorders, or both.
