Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists in Upper Montclair, NJ

Hi, my name is Dr. Nadia Huq. I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in working with children, adolescents, and their families. Previously, I worked as a psychologist at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Irving Medical Center’s Pediatric Psychiatry Department for 7 years. While I am primarily trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), my therapeutic approach integrates multiple modalities to address an individual’s treatment goals. I often collaborate with schools and additional treatment providers in order to provide comprehensive care for my clients.

At Prepared Approach, I love helping people to find peace and joy again. I help my clients to deal with problematic thoughts, behaviors and life stress. My goal is results; work from a Christ Centered Solution as well as other therapeutic process tailored to your needs, and symptoms. I offer a safe, trusting, non judgmental environment. For an initial, complementary half hour consultation, please phone 201-993-7891 or 551-574-1947. Email mlpreparedapproach@gmail.com to arrange a time. Looking for to hearing from you.

In this sacred space, I strive to create a warm and nurturing environment, a sanctuary where you can tenderly confront the challenges that may be holding you back. Together, we will craft personalized treatment goals, fostering growth and resilience amidst life's complexities.

With over 30 years of clinical experience, my enthusiasm for my work has only grown. I view my role as a facilitator, helping people discover individual strengths while becoming accepting and respectful of vulnerabilities. Learning healthy ways to survive major life crises and/or chronic conditions is also a focus. I teach effective communication skills to increase understanding and respect for differences while enhancing growth in connection. If asked about my greatest asset as a therapist, it is my ability to "listen," and to provide a safe place for exploration and resolution.

Hi! I'm a licensed counselor in NJ and CA working for 14 years with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families. I believe in a client centered approach where a safe, open environment is created and my client(s) is part of creating the counseling process. I utilize an integrative approach, pulling from different techniques that are best suited for a client's preferences and/or needs with a focus on client strengths. Progress looks like a client having more clarity and awareness of self, stability and calm within, harmony with how they interact with others and the world around them, and the ability to achieve desired goals.

Congratulations on taking another step on your journey of wellness. Deciding to find a therapist can be challenging, and I encourage you to make that next step and reach out. My role as a therapist can be described as an advocate and guide as clients navigate the space of healing. I aim to help clients dismantle the thought patterns and beliefs that have been limiting. Our work together will help you learn new concepts and tools and make space for personal growth. The ultimate goal is to help you discover and align with your true self.

Daily life has become challenging trying to balance our families, relationships, careers and goals. You may be feeling overwhelmed, experiencing anxiety that won’t allow you to move forward and you just can’t seem to get out of your own head. Perhaps you feel ready to take the steps to improve your quality of life, but you don’t know where to start. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe space where we can openly discuss any obstacles and recognize patterns that may be holding you back. I now offer Telemental health sessions using a confidential computer platform so you can be in the comfort of your own home.

Change is not only scary, it is difficult. The laws of inertia tell us that nothing will change without an external force. I am an empathic, calming and listening external force. Whether it is depression or anxiety from a life transition/event or past/present trauma, reaching out for support is essential. My motto is simple but true- Be heard. Feel better.

My clients know that I am their partner on their therapeutic journey. I will listen, support, and challenge you so that you can truly get to know yourself. We will work together to discover your roadblocks and develop the tools necessary to move forward in the healthiest way possible. My goal is to help you reach your goals!

Are you on the verge of making a major life change and need someone to walk alongside you? Together, we can meet your needs and help you get where you want to be. As we journey together, my clinical desire is for you to feel heard, safe and understood. In doing so, we will understand and unlock the hidden elements within you, empowering you to make the changes that best benefit your life!

My goal is to create a safe space where everyone can feel heard and validated. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, and transitional issues. I have a passion for working with adolescents, both individually and with their families. Adolescence can be a challenging times for families and I believe in creating an open environment for encouraging both communication and the acceptance of needed privacy. I have extensive training and experience in systemic family therapy. This means that I am able to treat not only the individual, but also the entire family of origin, where appropriate.

Anxiety, ADHD, Imposter Syndrome, people pleasing and negative thinking patterns don't have to run your life. I understand the complexities of our current lives and honor bringing our whole selves in the therapeutic space to learn essential skills to achieve your goals and be your best self.  I help adults and teens navigate challenges to achieve success, build confidence and maintain balanced wellbeing.

Your child is not acting herself. She was once so vibrant, bursting with personality and excitement for life. But now she complains of stomach aches and doesn’t want to go to school. She is nervous about so many things. You have tried to understand your child. You listen, validate, and explain to her why there is no need to worry. But you feel that the problem is growing instead of dying away. You feel stuck. Where is the way out? How can you bring the child you know, back?
