Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in Middletown, NJ

As a therapist, I am focused on providing a safe and comfortable environment for you in an effective way that helps to facilitate change and healing. It is my belief that the combination of a trusting relationship paired with an empathetic and interactive approach can create a platform for personal growth that can allow you to reach your individualized goals. My role in this therapeutic process is to take a non-judgmental stance to motivate change through helping you identify, navigate, and cope effectively with unhealthy thoughts and behaviors.

Knowing when to start therapy is not always clear. Are you feeling stuck? Struggling with a significant life transition or adapting to change? Maybe you are starting to realize that you just aren’t feeling yourself. Or perhaps you are becoming uncomfortable with your relationship with yourself or others. These feelings and thoughts are a sign that there is something within that needs attention. Psychotherapy is a profound means of self-discovery that can provide insight into ourselves, our relationships, and our behaviors. In psychotherapy, you give yourself the opportunity to explore- and begin a journey of feeling better.

I believe everyone has a story to share, and I am here to listen to yours. Therapy is a safe place for you to share your thoughts and emotions, without judgment. I believe those who seek counseling are courageous because they are willing to take a closer look at themselves and do the necessary work to have a more fulfilling life. Together, we can uncover the tools you need to begin creating a sense of peace in your life. I am dedicated to working with individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, parenting issues, and everyday stress.

Experiencing difficulty coping with a major life transition? Want help getting back to normal? Life changing events can be difficult to process emotionally. Being connected to the present moment in a relaxed body can help us better understand and appreciate our true selves. Too often we are stuck in the mistakes/misfortunes of our past or the uncertainties of our future. Change is difficult and at times uncomfortable, yet it is necessary in order to grow and thrive. Being able to be in the moment and address difficult situations as they are and without judgment is vital to making change easier to manage.

Whether the person just needs to take that one, final step, or is just coming to the realization that major changes are needed, I can provide the assistance, direction and support required to make mental health an achievable goal. My ideal client has concrete goals that he/she is looking to reach with the help of therapy and is willing to accept that therapy is an active process that requires work on the part of the client. Therapy is seen as a means to an end.

My practice specializes in helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families to grow mentally and emotionally through increasing insight, resilience, and general wellbeing.

These challenges could include but are not limited to substance abuse/addictions, family problems, behavioral problems, anger management, trauma, loss and grief, infertility, sexual problems, divorce, job stress, etc.

Have you been feeling stuck? Like you can barely keep your head above water? You are doing it all and somehow it still feels like it’s not good enough. Maybe you find yourself repeating the same patterns and cycles and even though you desperately want to get out, you can’t seem to figure out how. Do many people may see you as the “strong one”, but you are struggling behind the scenes? Possibly using addictive behaviors to cover up the distress. There are probably things under the surface getting in the way of being able to make a change. Often, my clients are highly sensitive people who need support understanding themselves better.

Using a trauma-sensitive, integrated mind-body approach, you and I will uncover the inner strengths that help to heal wounds and move into a life with more peace and calm.

Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life.

As a therapist, my goal is to be your own personal resource- someone that is there to support you wherever you are in your life. Any experience, relationship or conflict might be relevant to what’s happening to you now, and I’m here to help you explore them at a pace that's right for you.

Life can be extremely busy and trying at times, especially now with all of the sudden stressful changes in our lives, and we can feel as though we have too many roles to fill at once. This can create anxiety, depression, stress, and family issues. Having someone to help work through these difficulties can be extremely beneficial. I have much experience with various populations and age groups and provide my services in your home, as that is where people feel most comfortable and that is where many of life's challenges occur.

I believe in a client-centered approach, combining holistic and evidence based modalities tailored to each individual. Recognizing that people are equal parts nature, nurture and the surroundings in which they live is a priority of mine, as no two people endure the same sets of circumstances. Moving forward consists of recognizing where a person is at that time, as well as crafting the space to assist them on the path to where they would like to be in order to have a better quality of life. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and have extensive experience working in different capacities throughout the mental health field.
