Parenting Therapists in 18901

Hello! My name is Danielle and I am a New Jersey and Pennsylvania Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over 10+ years of experience working with children, teens and families. Many clients I have worked with have struggled with managing their anxiety and depression. Parents often feel helpless as to what to do. I have also worked with many families who are struggling with managing out-of-control behaviors from their children. My goal in therapy is to start where you and/or your family are and to give you the tools to reach your personal goals.

Parents can hold shame, self-reproach, frustration, and helplessness over a child’s distress; children fear, disgrace, anger, disquiet. Such dynamics summon my expertise. Mood disturbance, anxiety, panic, and maladjustment manifest as aversion to separation, school refusal, flawed coping mechanisms, pervasive woe. My approach allows vulnerability to speak. Individuals emerge from our process prepared to ably navigate their world by developing and honing effective strategies to ameliorate symptoms. More profoundly, they are empowered to not just push through travail, but to mindfully sit with it long enough to seed proper growth.

I am a child therapist who works to empower children and families to make changes to reach their goals. I am uniquely qualified to work with children as young as 2 years old and utilize a variety of techniques to understand family dynamics and embrace each child's unique personality. My office is a safe and relaxing place to help you and your child feel comfortable. I want to help you help your child with clear guidance, reassurance, and practical steps. I address behavioral issues, anxiety, difficult transitions, enhance self-esteem, develop social skills, and utilize coping techniques and mindfulness to allow for growth.

I work with the children to help them mature, trust, and communicate, and the parents to help them understand the needs of their children. I have a great deal of experience with divorce, co-parenting, conflict, developmental needs, sexuality issues, and learning challenges.

As a person deeply rooted in relationship dynamics, I am passionate and committed to helping my clients explore their growth potential, both in relationships and individually. By nurturing insight and providing consistent support, you will have the opportunity to work at your own pace and work through issues that you feel are preventing you from moving forward. I provide Individual, Couples, and Family therapy in addition to Life Coaching.

Many people who seek mental health services struggle to find a clinician who is both personable and effective. The most important factor in therapeutic success is the therapeutic relationship. I am not the right fit for everyone, but finding the right professional is key. My work includes working with difficult to treat individuals as well as those who have experienced previous treatment failures. I am also a forensic psychologist and conduct evaluations of individuals involved with the legal system and often provide expert testimony.

I have worked in a variety of settings, including private counseling, inpatient treatment, schools, and family centers.

Over the past 19 years, I have worked with hundreds of adolescents in area community mental health agencies and as a visiting school counselor, and am now offering services privately, specializing in young adults, adolescents, parenting, & women's issues.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by daily stressors, struggling with internal thoughts and judgments or stuck in your anxiety, depression or relationship patterns, these challenges are often difficult to navigate on your own. I follow a solution focused and cognitive-behavioral orientation to therapy, which focuses on how thoughts affect the way people feel and act. My approach is supportive, non-judgmental, collaborative, and strengths-focused, yet tailored to each client. I strive to provide a safe, warm, and insightful environment in order to help individuals work through their stressors.

I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, major life transitions (divorce, health issues, career), low self esteem and those who want to have more balance, peace and less stress in their life. I work with couples who are going through the divorce process and want to learn how to co-parent for the well-being of their children. I also work with adolescents and children who are having difficulty with their parent's divorce.

In my ideal client, I envision someone seeking support for improving communication and resolving conflicts within their family, marriage or relationships. They may be navigating issues such as relationship strain, parenting challenges, or coping with life transitions. Their needs include a safe space for open dialogue, empathy, and guidance to enhance interpersonal dynamics. Goals often revolve around fostering healthier relationships, developing coping strategies, and achieving emotional well-being. Ultimately, they desire positive change and connection within their family and relationships.
