Therapists in Stockton, NJ

As a licensed psychologist in NY and NJ, I offer remote individual psychotherapy to adults (Mon-Thurs: 9am-5pm). My approach is collaborative, and you are an active partner in designing your personal goals. I individualize treatment based on your presenting concerns/needs as well as your unique background and history. Based on my training and experience in a variety of treatment modalities, including CBT, DBT, and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, I use an integrative approach to help you reach your personal goals, which may involve learning skills to manage life’s difficulties and developing greater understanding of yourself.

I am a Korean and English speaking Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience in the field of mental health, relationship and parenting children. In my practice I work with individuals, couples, and families.

Whether it's for navigating a difficult time in your life, struggling to achieve your goals, or even feeling overwhelmed by current events, everyone needs support. The type of support I provide combines motivational interviewing, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral therapies filtered through a trauma-informed, feminist, anti-oppression, and empowerment lens. In my practice, I strive to create a safe space that is culturally-sensitive and is affirming of all identities and spiritual paths, with a special interest in the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities, as well as adolescents.

Have you ever tried to talk to someone but just felt like you couldn't tell them everything that was troubling you? I have been working with children, families, and adults for the past 23 years and strongly believe that if you don't feel connected with your treatment provider, trying to say what is troubling you can feel like you're swimming upstream. Most people find that my ability to empathize and truly understand their journey to find solutions makes it natural for them to feel connected to me. We can use our connection to build trust and safety, which can accelerate the process of change and healing.

This is a space for everyone who would like to explore their full potential. You can find non-judgmental, unconditional acceptance here. This will be a journey for your personal growth and to reach your life goals, whether it's reaching higher or getting back in the direction you wish. We will work together frequently at the beginning and aim to reduce the frequency when you feel ready.

Pornography addiction can significantly impact your life and relationships but there is hope for recovery. I’m not just a mental health professional, I’ve been “you” for many years. I understand firsthand the personal struggles in your life and committed relationships that come with uncontrollable pornography use. The endless stream of attractive women a few clicks away on Pornhub, Onlyfan or Social Media is hard to quit even with all your willpower and promise to quit for the sake of your relationship.

Have you struggled to find a therapist who affirms your identity, respects your history, -and- challenges you to face your fears? Whether you’re coping with anxiety or OCD, exploring your gender, or looking to strengthen your relationships, you deserve specialized care with an experienced, queer- and trans-identified, trauma-informed psychotherapist. My practice focuses on anxiety and related disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and hoarding, especially in queer/trans clients and people who have experienced family estrangement.

I've worked in the mental health field for over 25 years and provide psychotherapy and consultation services to those in NY and NJ. Having worked in a variety of settings, including hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and community counseling clinics, I specialize in treating emotion dysregulation, addictions, mood and anxiety disorders, and in helping clients develop coping and resilience. I've served as president for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention’s NJ Chapter and am currently a Staff Psychologist at Montclair State University's Counseling and Psychological Services.

I believe in building a trusting relationship that leads to the empowerment of my clients. In our work together, my priority is for you to feel safe in being yourself and expressing your experiences. I have experience providing bilingual (English and Spanish) individual therapy and use a person-centered approach when working with clients. I am passionate about normalizing mental health treatment and I believe that access to mental health care is a right and not a privilege.

Welcome to Shifa Therapy LLC, a space for healing. I offer trauma-focused psychotherapy centering BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ folks in NJ. My goal as your therapist is for you to be seen and understood as you are. No code-switching necessary. Throughout the process, I will invite you with patience and compassion, going at your pace as you build new adaptations towards thriving. At times, we may draw upon the past to increase awareness, overcome unresolved issues, and regain a sense of feeling whole.

I have over 20 years of experience helping individuals cope with stress, loss, fear, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and adjustment to life changes. I work collaboratively with clients to establish a trusting and supportive relationship, set goals for therapy, build upon strengths to increase confidence and self-esteem, and work toward resolving issues.

My name is Christian, and welcome to my practice. Parakaleo is a Koine Greek word that means “to call alongside.” It was a way to describe a counselor – one who walks alongside you to encourage, strength, and comfort. In a digital age when everyone is becoming more connected but alone at the same time, it is hard to discern the competing voices inside your mind and heart. I hope to walk alongside you during this season to help you find that voice inside that you need hear, and unlock its resonance – in your challenges, passions, and relationships.

I am a Licensed Professional Counseling who has been working in the mental health and addictions field for over 2 years. During that time, I have helped adult clients with issues such as depression, anxiety, mood instability, trauma, schizophrenia, and substance abuse.

I work with adults and adolescents who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma and stressor-related disorders, substance abuse, dual diagnosis, and high-risk behaviors such as suicidality and self-harm. I am trained and experienced in successfully delivering evidence-based modalities such as comprehensive Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) which I am intensely trained in through Behavioral Tech Institute, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I am also a trained practitioner in Brainspotting, a somatic mind-body treatment method.

Although I obtained a significant amount of knowledge as a therapeutic provider and underwent professional training, I myself do not claim to be an expert on my clients. I ultimately view clients as the true experts on themselves and I, as the therapist, am their creative partner in becoming the “best” version of themselves. Not only do I believe clients are the experts on themselves, but I also believe that clients are the heroes of their own stories. During the course of the journey, the hero often has to integrate parts of themselves and the world that surrounds them to become an agent of better change.

NEW availability for therapy and evaluations for children and adults. I specialize in neuropsychology and apply knowledge of brain-behavior relationships to evidence-based therapies. I am a clinical assistant professor and staff psychologist at NYU Langone Health. Most of my training has been at academic medical centers, such as Columbia University, Stony Brook Medicine, Hackensack Neuroscience Institute, and the Veteran's Administration. Adjunct teaching positions include Pace, CUNY Baruch, and William Paterson University. In addition, I supervise pre-doctoral interns at Hamilton Madison House and NYU Rusk Rehabilitation.

Despite having reached the pinnacle of my profession after nearly two decades of practice, it was my own struggle with learning disabilities, dual diagnosis and other medical conditions and issues, that changed my perspective and my life. I came to appreciate an approach which focuses on the here and now; solution focused and goal oriented. I found little solace in traditional therapeutic approaches which focused largely on the past, and went on for months with no real relief nor positive impact on my life or functioning. As such, I strive to help my clients achieve their goals and actualize their dreams using a coaching approach.
