When I first meet clients, I encourage them to be fascinated by the way their mind works. An ideal component of a successful therapy is when clients become curious about themselves, which allows them to gain insight into their problems. I personally believe, based on my research and experience, that what the human mind concentrates on has an influence on what happens in one's life. By watching the patterns of our thoughts we can modify and redirect them, with the goal of making healthier and more life-affirming decisions. The human mind has evolved to focus on problems and to anticipate more of them in the future.

Life is hard. And, sometimes we lose our bearings along the way. There are times when the usual answers aren't enough and we must turn inward to search more deeply for the source of the patterns that keep us stuck and that make us suffer more than we need to. The path out of our darkness requires leaning into it rather than running from it. It requires going through it and doing the work that can lead us to the other side--to a more authentic and fulfilling life.

My concern as a psychotherapist is establishing trust and security between my patient and myself. I treat the patient's symptoms with attention to symptom origins, and work to change character and personality traits that impair relationships and achievement: trust, attachment, healthy dependency and assertiveness. I treat adolescents and adults.

I believe in a therapeutic process that is collaborative and flexible — meeting my clients where they are to foster meaningful growth and change. I approach therapy with warmth, compassion, and honest reflection to create a non-judgmental space for self-exploration. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples who are experiencing emotional struggles, low self-esteem, transitional and relationship issues, and attachment injuries. My aim is to collaboratively help you understand patterns in which you feel stuck, find relief from narratives that are no longer yours, and learn how to move towards towards your goals.

Every person who chooses therapy does so for a unique combination of reasons, as my patients have revealed to me in twenty years of private practice. No one fits into simple categories, teens especially. Some are impacted by events long ago, others by recent setbacks, while most are triggered by a combination of influences known and unknown. Working with children and adolescents, I understand these manifold pressures are sometimes accompanied by resistance to change, thereby limiting the otherwise positive support offered by family and friends. That’s when I can help.

I am invested in each of my client’s goals and tailor therapy to your specific needs. It’s difficult to seek help, and I recognize how much strength it takes when you reach out. I see that in itself as the first step to feeling better. I am an LCSW-R, the highest level of licensure, and I provide a relaxed space for you to feel comfortable & unjudged, so that you can share thoughts & feelings that are hard to say aloud. Through our therapy, my clients are able to explore new parts of themselves, make decisions, build self-esteem, reach goals, & draw boundaries that they never thought were possible. Pls call/email for a free consult.

I treat a broad array of diagnostic categories that is centered on treating the whole person. Areas of expertise include individual and couples therapy, parent/child, challenges from physical illness, coworker relationships and conflict resolution. Treatment areas include anxiety, depression, adjustment and relationship issues. I focus on behaviors, thoughts, feelings and ways of interacting that individuals repeat in spite of a wish to behave differently. My practice is devoted to developing, in a confidential setting, the tools needed to lead a rewarding life. I have over 25 years' experience treating individuals and couples. I offer both traditional psychotherapy and executive coaching for Fortune 500 companies.

I am accepting new clients. I combine compassionate care with evidence-based therapies to enable you to set and meet goals, feel better, and live the life you want and deserve. My goal is to provide you with a caring, comfortable, and supportive environment to discuss your concerns and help you develop new skills to improve your quality of life. Some of my clients only require a few sessions while others may benefit from longer-term counseling. I am exclusively a tele therapist. This allows you to see a therapist from the comfort and convenience of your own home. When I'm not seeing patients, I am a professor at Rutgers.

Are you struggling with relationship issues, loss of a loved one, or challenges with family members? Are you or your loved ones struggling with addiction? Together, we can explore your current behaviors and beliefs and begin to unpack how your experiences from the past may be impeding your ability to live peacefully and purposefully in the present. I will help you relieve your distress, strengthen your inner resources and sense of self, and develop more authentic ways of communicating in order to enrich the relationships in your life (including the one with yourself).

I believe my approach to therapy has always been to provide a space where people can feel heard, understood and challenged to look at themselves and the choices they have made. This applies to the youth of today as well as those more experienced in life. I offer a genuine and direct approach to changing lives, while going at the right pace for each individual. People need to feel safe in a non judgmental space and appreciate honest feedback and direction while they transition on their therapeutic journey. I am eclectic in my approach to treatment and use a multitude of therapeutic techniques which are individualized to each client.

Going through profiles, you may not be sure what you are looking for in a therapist. I offer clients a free consultation call to determine what they need from both therapy and their therapist in order to move forward in life. If I’m not a good fit, I’ll provide you with referrals accordingly.

Life long secrets? Sexual abuse? Relationship issues, interested in trying the Gottman Method? Sex & Porn addiction? Youth sexual behavior problems? Shame spiral, depression, anxiety? You’re desperate for relief but nothing helps. Abuse nightmares & flashbacks are spinning out of control. You’re concerned about your spouse or child's sexuality- but don’t know how to help. How do you get your relationship back on track? Do you stay or leave your marriage? Feeling hopeless? Longing for peace? These are specialty areas I have successfully helped clients with for 23 years, in addition to my work with anxiety and mood disorders.

Psychotherapy can feel like a daunting journey to start but my goal is to help you feel supported, seen and understood each step of the way. Together, we will explore in detail what brings you to seek therapy and identify the problems that have become overwhelming, pervasive or limiting for you. I tailor my approach to each patient's individual needs and together we will work not only to reduce symptoms but to also address the underlying causes.

Welcome to the talking cure! My job is to help you talk about life stressors: strained relationships, job pressures, uncertain times. Perhaps you are feeling over-whelmed, anxious or depressed. As you express your feelings to a trained listener, you develop emotional muscles to tolerate life's disappointments and frustrations.

I am a psychotherapist with particular expertise in intuitive eating and nutrition. I also specialize working with individuals struggling with disordered eating and negative body image. I believe that our relationship to our bodies is reflective of how we feel about ourselves. I strongly believe that when our eating habits, sleep patterns and activities of daily living are not well regulated we may feel more anxious, more stressed and have difficulty navigating experiences in our relationships and day to day interactions with others.

Practical, solution-focused, short-term couple counseling. Dive into your issues and get guidance from the first session. No lengthy and ineffective "intake" process that more often than not looks like this: you're talking the entire session, the therapist only listens, and then you leave without any new ideas about what to do about your problem. My approach is different: I actively lead you to identify where exactly your communication breaks down and why, and then I coach you to try something different that will shift you from bewilderment, confusion and resignation to actionable clarity.

You remember the beginning of your relationship. How lucky you felt to finally find someone to share your hopes and dreams. You were sure you’d be together forever. But lately those fairy-tale days feel like a distant memory. Now you sit at mealtimes close enough to touch…but worlds apart. There’s so much you want to say to your partner if only you could find the words. The silence between you is cold and tense, but you just can’t face another exhausting fight. You’ve always been able to accomplish whatever you put your mind to, but it’s just not working this time. You feel hopeless. Alone.
