Therapists in Princeton, NJ

A beautiful thing about our bodies is that our bodies can talk to us. Our bodies can provide us with data that can be beneficial to our mental and physical state of being. Breaking down and analyzing that data can be key to understanding what we might need to help ourselves. We can discuss trauma recovery, life transitions, relationship challenges (monogamy, polyamory, and open relationships), sex positivity, BDSM and kink, body image, anxiety, stress, depression, and self growth.

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 resources 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.

Finding a therapist you can connect with can be overwhelming and feel like a daunting process. In a world that has conditioned you to live an unconscious life, self-reflection and building your intuition is an act of rebellion. You may struggle to find meaning, balance, & peace within the chaos of living. Life inherently involves suffering, and sometimes navigating relationship issues, big life transitions, traumas, or just daily stress can get overwhelming and confusing. The choice to go to therapy is a radical act of self-care, bravery, and accountability.

The Princeton Center for MindBody Healing prioritizes holistic healing and walking with you to grow your best self: mind, body and soul. Our clinicians work on a wide range of issues with a wide range of therapeutic techniques, self-care tools and clinical styles. We offer traditional and non-traditional outpatient services for individuals, couples, and families of all forms and fashions including office and nature sessions, walking sessions, video, text and telephone. We believe in affirming & celebrating all people for who you truly are.

There are times in life we all need someone to talk to. Whether you struggle with anxiety or depression or are trying to cope with a recent change or loss, no concern is too big to work through together. I will provide a safe, comfortable, private space for you to unload your worries, untangle your conflicts, and plan and dream for your future. Most importantly, I will listen to you, respect you, and care about you. I look forward to hearing your story, and helping you craft the next chapter.

I have been providing counseling and consulting services for over 35 years. My office is conveniently located in the Princeton area. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor in the State of New Jersey, offering counseling to individuals seeking help for emotional issues that are affecting their sense of satisfaction and well-being in their lives. My priority in treatment is to provide a safe, relaxing, non-threatening atmosphere, where individuals will feel "listened to/really understood", in examining whatever issues or concerns might be preventing them from experiencing happy, peaceful, and fulfilling lives.

Anxiety is a part of being human, but when chronic worry, panic attacks, unwanted and intrusive repetitive thoughts, behaviors and compulsions take over, you may need new strategies and professional support. For over 28 years, I have worked with people of all ages who experience these symptoms, as well as those with ADHD, compulsive eating, neurodiversity, perfectionism and low self esteem. I offer a practical approach to recovering from compulsive and binge eating & managing symptoms of anxiety, OCD and ADHD. I partner with you to offer both a path to developing insight as well as tools for the behavioral changes you envision.

My approach to therapy is compassionate and respectful. In addition to gaining greater understanding of your self, therapy is an opportunity to learn specific skills and techniques for meeting your goals and feeling better. I value therapy as a time to face difficulties and break free from unsatisfying ways of feeling, thinking, or being in relationships with others. As a clinical psychologist, I am experienced in helping clients struggling with anxiety, low mood, painful or intense emotions, problems in close relationships, and self-criticism.

I want you to have the best life imaginable: to live in a body that can feel what it feels and with a mind that can know what it knows. I believe we heal through connection and relationship; it is how we survive then thrive. Sometimes we need to make meaning of our experiences; sometimes we just want to manage or reduce unwanted symptoms and sometimes we need someone to simply be present- to sit and witness and listen or hold the silence. I hope you will find all these elements working with me and together we will walk the path to healing. Come in and let's explore together!

There are times in life when we encounter pressures and difficulties that not only challenge our ability to cope and adapt in healthy and effective ways, but that also leave us feeling either out of touch with, and/or out of alignment with our truest, most authentic selves. Our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and well-being can often suffer as a result. As a licensed clinical psychologist with specialized training and expertise in treating issues related to physical health and spirituality, I am deeply passionate about providing evidenced-based psychotherapy that respects and honors the whole person.

I am a clinical psychologist licensed in New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, and Virginia. Over the past 20 years I have worked collaboratively with clients on a wide range of issues, and am comfortable utilizing a variety of techniques designed to help empower my clients and establish a greater sense of integrity within their lives. My training in psychotherapy has been influenced by a wide variety of philosophies and theories, and I am skilled in helping clients become more aware of deeper connections to their problems, whether it be in their relationships with others or in their relationship with themselves.

My practice focuses on helping adolescents and adults who are struggling to overcome anxiety, depression, and adjustment disorders. I have particular expertise in working with men of all ages. I also focus on couples that are struggling to resolve differences and achieve greater harmony and intimacy. Often, differing parenting styles contribute to disconnects within a couple, particularly when parenting children with emotional, behavioral or developmental challenges and differences. I work with such couples to create a more unified parenting structure and to strike the important balance of familial obligation and self-care.

Are you struggling to let go of past hurt or are you stuck? Are you struggling to move forward from a past relationship? Do you keep choosing the wrong partner, but you don’t know why? Are you feeling single and shame? Are you feeling alone in your pain? Is shame, anger, low self-esteem, resentment, sadness or anxiety holding you back? Do you notice that you’re engaging in the same maladaptive behaviors as your parents? Do you want to better understand who you are and why you cannot break your patterns? Do you need new tools to help you cope with the challenges of life? Allow me the opportunity to support you

Has the compulsive use of pornography gotten in the way of having the connections you want to achieve in your life? Has your relationship been affected by adult content or chronic infidelity? Nowadays many people use adult content and can not recognize if they have a problem until it is brought to their attention by a loved one or they may have tried to unsuccessfully limit their use. Many people are simply just trying to escape from depression, anxiety or boredom. You may feel stuck, ashamed and embarrassed keeping this secret. Seeking help is the first step towards wellness.

We offer individual, couples, family, and group therapy. We treat children, teens, and adults. We are currently offering Telehealth and in person counseling

Stressed out, overwhelmed and exhausted professionals need someone to talk to. We either let our frustrations out at the worst time and in the worst way - causing damage to our relationships - or we keep holding it all in because it feels like no one is listening. Talking in full privacy and trust can feel like a weight lifted. Find clarity, learn specific coping techniques, and explore your deeper sense of self.

Do you have trust issues in your relationship? Are you afraid to be honest with your partner or tired of trying to be someone you're not? Neither you or your partner are really talking about your hurt or resentments over pornography and infidelity. You've tried over and over again and the current situation isn't working for you and/or your relationship. Contact me and we will talk about how you feel about your challenges and together come up with a behavioral and emotional strategy for you to move forward! By the end of our FIRST session, you will be given therapeutic goals that you and I will work on.

I am a firm believer that change and recovery are possible for everyone. Therapy and change can be both difficult and challenging experiences. My approach centers around trust and the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I am an open-minded and nonjudgmental support who can walk with a person through this journey. I hope to help individuals learn more about themselves and how to live more authentically. I love supporting people in harnessing their own individuality while helping them navigate the world and it's stress. We don't necessarily live in a world that embraces uniqueness, let me assist you in tapping into that magic.

I enjoy working with relationship issues, self-esteem, anxiety and trauma. I specialize in working with adult survivors of childhood trauma, PTSD, and complex trauma. My ideal client is someone who is ready to gain insight into their experiences, and to work towards personal growth. I will help you feel empowered, and more fulfilled.
