Teletherapy for 07649

I recognize that people often have many different types of trauma in their lives. Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes and may be interpreted differently by each individual. Traumatic issues can range from bullying, loss of friendship, transitions of all types, to devastating life events. I have provided care to adolescents and adults suffering from emotional disturbances, as a result of trauma and loss. Subsequently these disturbances will interfere with school, work, and relationships and may ultimately prevent one from living a fulfilling life.

For me, being a therapist means being a collaborative partner with clients. My primary goal is to establish genuine relationships with others in order to undo aloneness and create safety. I aim to join people as they explore, navigate, and make meaning of the challenges and joys that they experience. Throughout this journey, I support them in discovering their most authentic selves by facilitating connection to their core emotions. I enjoy working with clients across the lifespan, and connect well with those who are feeling stuck in symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship/familial conflict, and identity formation.

I specialize in working with adults who are overwhelmed, stressed, or feeling lost and disoriented. If you’re here, you have taken a powerful step towards finding the balance, clarity, and resilience you deserve. You are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, uncover your true potential and are seeking guidance toward a more authentic life. You need to find the right support to fit your needs. We use a collaborative approach rooted in empowerment to provide support and tools for navigating challenging times.

Making the decision to seek counseling can be an anxious time. It is important to select a good therapist that can help you work toward your goals. Therapy can be positive and rewarding, if you are committed to the process. It can give you a chance to explore thoughts and feelings regarding your relationships, family, professional life and overall happiness. Therapy can be active and solution-focused, or quiet and reflective. Most importantly it is always collaborative. I help clients work towards goals in a safe, nonjudgmental manner.

I aim to empower individuals (children, adolescents, adults) and families to discover healthier ways of living. I believe therapy can be beneficial to anyone looking to get through a difficult time in their life. I practice an integrative approach which includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-focused therapeutic models with my clients. I help my clients to process their current thoughts, feelings and behaviors and develop effective solutions to their presenting issues. I encourage clients to make positive changes both in the present and future to live the best possible life they can live.

Have you lost a loved one to suicide and are now having difficulty finding anyone who understands what you are going through? Suicide loss survivors often feel significant guilt and responsibility for the suicide. They can also feel abandoned and betrayed by the deceased. Well-meaning friends, family members, and therapists may try their best to help but often exacerbate the pain and confusion the survivor is feeling. Imagine feeling understood by someone who has been there and can guide you along the path of recovering from the suicide of your loved one. I would like to be that person for you.

We live in a world of immense pressure. Both adults and children have to struggle with an exhausting list of responsibilities, a deluge of constant communication, and for many of us, the residual impact of trauma. We are pulled in so many different directions. It can feel isolating. It can feel overwhelming. But we can get through it. Everything you need to do so is already inside of you. Managing anxiety, coping with depression, resolving trauma, improving relationships, all of it is possible. Congratulations on taking the brave first step towards taking control and establishing a new pace of your life.

Do you sometimes feel anxious, depressed, stressed or overwhelmed, despite feeling successful in many areas of your life? Do you find that your family relationships or friendships are often difficult or lacking the support you need? Can it be hard to say no and take care of your own needs? Or are you struggling with new life circumstances, such as parenthood, pregnancy, divorce, illness, job changes or loss? As a compassionate, experienced psychotherapist I'm here to listen and help. I believe change is always possible, and I promise to provide a safe, nonjudgemental space for your journey.

Asking for help is not a weakness, it is the recognition of self awareness to grow and heal. Do you struggle to manage daily stressors or life quakes from past trauma? Do you need additional tools to navigate uncharted territory? I will honor your space while you bridge the old into the new. We all experience life events differently and individually, so my approach will fit your specific needs. Your story is very personal to you and we can use this to empower your process. Focusing on the things we can change are essential to those we cannot. Let us begin to explore and learn more.

I believe the most important ingredient to achieve change, is a strong connection between the client and therapist.

Your increased personal fulfillment and happiness, as well as learning how to manage your issues, are just a few of the benefits of therapy. Let's work through challenging issues such as parenting, divorce, substance abuse, negative self image, phobias and anxiety. .

"You are the strongest person I Know." they say. So, you can't make any mistakes EVER! Even though you're exhausted, you can’t slow down, or say no to things because everything around you might fall apart, and then everyone will know what you've always feared about yourself. As long as you keep everyone around you happy, everything will be fine and you will be safe...right? But uh oh... it's not working anymore. You can’t make your own choices, express your true feelings, or hear your own voice. You can't live like this anymore. It's time to come to a resolution with your internal critic. It's time to prioritize you.

Are you feeling down most of the time? Do you constantly worry about your future? Do you have problems relating to others? If some of these questions speak to you, you may want to talk to a trained therapist, who can help you to sort out the things in your life and help you to regain the lost time you spent alone. Some of the feelings you may have are quite normal. However, it becomes a problem when such emotions and feelings impede the daily functioning of your life, such as inability to work, difficulties with family relationships and friendships.

When unresolved lifelong challenges cause feelings of helplessness and hopelessness, proper diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve general well-being.

I aim to empower my clients to discover their best selves by utilizing my clinical expertise, and providing them with essential tools needed to attain their highest level of independent functioning.
