How is it going? Whether we have a difficult work situation, a relationship issue, struggles with life changes, caught in the cycle of addiction, unresolved childhood trauma, or feel just plain stuck, the anxiety and depression that result can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Sometimes we have no idea what is happening, but certain things just seem to trigger panic or reactions we do not fully understand. Other times, finding the motivation to get out of bed in the morning is a major effort. Old and familiar ways of getting though these challenges no longer work. Something must change, but what and how?

Do you have a pressing practical conflict, moral dilemma, or torn decision, not sure which way to go? Are you at a cross-roads, re-evaluating yourself, your life, career, relationship, your religion, or your spiritual path? Are you struggling with meaninglessness, loss of purpose, loss of faith, existential indigestion, philosophical confusion? Do you struggle with the bigger questions: Is life meaningful? Who am I? Why am I here? What should I believe? What is reality? Is this it? Is there anything else? How can I know? How should I live? What is my path? What is my highest good? Do I have a calling? Can I change? What should I do?

Lighthouse Counseling & Sand Play Training Center, LLC was conceived in 2000 in a tiny office in Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey by Gretchen Morgan and Mary Pat McGeehin. Their search for effective treatment led them to include the use of Sand Play Therapy, EMDR, yoga and therapeutic group work with their clients. This was in response to the expanding body of research which illustrated that the mind-body connection was integral to the healing of mental health issues. In 2004, they expanded their practice to include like-minded affiliate clinicians and moved to a larger facility in Eatontown, New Jersey.

I work with individuals and couples whose lives have been interrupted by depression, anxiety,and trauma. Psychotherapy, like pastoral care and psychoanlysis, is "soul work" - self expression in the presence of a trusted friend and guide. In the safe space of the therapeutic relationship, thoughts and feelings, dreams and fantasies, desires and fears are spoken without judgment. Authentic verbal and emotional expression is transformative. As dysfunctional patterns of thought and behavior become clear, as shattered parts of the self are recognized and linked, health and a new wholeness can be achieved.

I'm a Counseling Psychologist with over 20 years experience working with adults struggling with a broad range of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, low self-esteem and adjustment to life's stressors. My goal is to help you cope with the stressors you are facing, and to gradually help you gain insight and understanding regarding them, so that together, we may resolve your issues and identify possible avenues for growth and change. I offer a personalized and collaborative approach to treatment that is tailored to the specific needs of each of my clients.

Sometimes we all need help recognizing and understanding what life is trying to tell us. We are faced with challenges, crises and conflicts. Working through these issues, though incredibly difficult, help us to grow, become stronger and more self-confident. With respect and compassion, together we can explore the complex issues that are creating pain in your life and keeping you from being the "real" you. Often we don’t recognize our individual issues until they begin to impact our relationships; our spouses, our partners, our friends, and even our children.

If you are having difficulty overcoming struggles in your life, you are not alone. I can help navigate you through these difficult times in a safe, comfortable, and confidential space. I believe therapy is an avenue to address the challenges in life that sometimes seem unmanageable. Whether a change in your life is causing you discomfort, or you are struggling with substance use, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or relationship issues, I am here to support you and help you cope with life's struggles.

People seek therapy for a variety of different reasons, and there is no issue too complex or minor to work on! My goal is to offer guidance, instill hope, and foster empowerment, to enable clients to regain control of the areas of their lives they feel they may have lost control over. I truly believe that people are the experts of their own lives and sometimes just need assistance discovering the strengths and tools they already possess to manage life's challenges. I believe therapy is a collaborative process in which a therapist and client must work together towards desired goals.
