We all struggle to improve our lives - to change and grow in ways that make us feel more fulfilled. As a psychotherapist for over 20 years, I often see people who are stuck, in unsatisfying relationships or jobs, alcohol/drug dependence or struggling with anxiety, depression or fears that hold them back from living more fully. My background in fine arts and personal experience as a painter has made me especially attuned to issues of artists who feel blocked in their creativity. Helping people with inhibitions in expressing feelings and asserting themselves is another area of interest.

Life comes with countless peaks and valleys, ups and downs. Having the space to ventilate your feelings is important to better understand your emotions and those around you. Therapy can help you confront challenges - whether it is frequent anxiety at work, low self esteem, or relationship set-backs - and master the skills and attain the self-awareness to succeed. We can work together to help you achieve your individual goals.

Taking this step is likely a daunting and courageous one for you. I offer a safe, supportive environment in which to help you deal with difficult problems. Whether you are unhappy, overwhelmed, struggling with your relationships or are feeling stuck regarding your personal goals, I will actively listen and help problem solve around how to make changes so you can live more freely and feel more empowered. I will help you build more awareness and self care so that you will feel better.

Feeling anxious, depressed, stressed out, stuck? It takes courage and strength to recognize that sometimes life becomes too difficult to bear alone but realizing you need help is the right step towards change. I can provide a safe, nonjudgmental and respectful environment where you can understand and work through your difficulties and develop to reach your fullest potential. I will help you to explore the roots of your problems and rethink the issues that are holding you back so you can understand yourself and your behavior. I have over 17 years of clinical experience, having practiced in Detroit, London (UK) and New York.

My psychoanalytic training and my 20 years work experience has taught me the importance of understanding the full individual and his/her own unique experience in the world. In therapy, I provide a supportive environment that focuses on symptom-reduction while also exploring underlying roots of emotional discomfort. I encourage self-exploration, emotional processing and self-acceptance. I believe in helping clients understand how their past experiences impacts their lives, and in utilizing the therapeutic relationship to foster clients' growth and self-fulfillment. I find psychotherapy to be powerful and exciting and I consider it a privilege to help people strive for their potential.

I am the director of Arrow Psychology and a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in Hoboken, NJ. I pride myself on my warm and collaborative style and believe therapy should be an interactive and engaging process. I utilize an integrative approach guided by psychodynamic, relational and cognitive behavioral principles. My aim is to encourage insight and reflection while facilitating symptom reduction. What distinguishes my practice is my use of humor and candor to create a comfortable environment for self-exploration.

Making the phone call to initiate therapy is a very personal experience. Whatever may have led you to make the call I see this as the start towards creating a more meaningful, satisfying and purposeful life. My approach to therapy is less about identifying something "wrong" in you, but rather to provide you a safe, non-judgmental and supportive space for you to explore and challenge unhealthy patterns of perception, emotion, cognition, and behavior that have become barriers to effective functioning, satisfying relationships, and a general sense of personal well-being.

Therapy should be a collaboration to help you meet your personal goals and cope with whatever challenges you are facing. Everyone has innate strengths and talents that he or she can use (and has used in the past, whether or not he or she is aware of it) to manage and resolve problems. In hearing clients' stories, I am always listening for these natural strengths in order to explore how they can be used to cope with current stressors.

Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step to make positive changes in your life. Let me help you navigate your next steps. Your truth is that your big picture and outlook is good, but it's the small details in your life that has caused your current setback. Maybe your values and goals are not aligning with your current direction and status, and it's time for a tune up to get your life going again. Life is good, but you know, it can be so much more fulfilling! Successful therapy is built upon a comfortable, trusting, and working relationship.

Welcome to my practice. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and help adults struggling with a variety of issues including anxiety, stress and life transitions, as well as those who are simply interested in self-exploration. No matter what brings you to pursue support at this time, I prioritize establishing a trusting, safe and respectful space in session and strive to help you get out of therapy whatever it is you are seeking from the experience. I also work with children of all ages and offer both play and talk therapy, as well as parent coaching to assist with behavior management.

Hello, my name is Joe Coleman. Do you want to learn about yourself? Do you want to better understand your anxieties, your emotions, and how to manage them? Do you crave more satisfying relationships and a better work-life balance? I'm here for you.

After working for the past 6.5 years closely with survivors of sexual abuse at a prominent NYC hospital, I have developed a strong passion for continuing my work with survivors. Recently, many survivors are being triggered by events in the worlds of entertainment, national, and local news. The increased reporting has created significant public awareness leading people to flashback to painful and traumatic events of childhood and adult sexual abuse. You do not have to live alone with those memories, thoughts, feelings, anxiety, and depression. If untreated, the effects of trauma can have a lasting life impact.

Everyone can use help on their journey toward healing and happiness. Despite how you may feel right now, there is a way to create the lasting healing and change you want in your life. These are especially challenging times for all of us. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a new normal often full of new and compounding stressors. Many of us are undergoing life transitions or have relationship, work & career, or other stressors which can lead to debilitating anxiety and/or depression. I am currently offering teletherapy sessions to assist those living in the great NYC area to make treatment safe and convenient during the pandemic.

I am most well suited to help people working through life transitions, difficult relationships, trauma and loss. I also find that I work particularly well with people interested in visual imagery and other nonverbal experience. While verbal expression is essential, we all also carry internal images, physiological and emotional expressions that can stretch well beyond language. I find that creative efforts to make use of these nonverbal elements can often expand therapeutic potentials in very useful and generative ways. What kinds of images come to mind when you think about your life experience? What kinds of sounds and smells?

Developmental and life transitions can often cause anxiety, depression or lead to feelings of hopelessness and confusion. However crisis can also be an opportunity for growth and healing, a catalyst for positive change in our lives. By creating a space for self-exploration, free from judgment and pressure, I can help you to discover and develop your strengths, develop advanced coping skills to manage conflicts and develop a compassionate understanding of your vulnerabilities. We will work together to identify and change self-defeating patterns helping you to feel more productive in your life and satisfied with your relationships.

Life can be stressful, overwhelming and exhausting at times. We might see it in our kids, who struggle adjusting to a new change, or overcoming a situation. They throw tantrums, hit, or become overly shy and anxious. As we grow and experience life ourselves, things get more and more complicated. Family relationships, romantic life, career choices and work/life balance, are only a few examples. When changes, transitions, and bonds are overwhelming, therapy is an opportunity to gain insight about ourselves, let go, and welcome new possibilities.

Successful treatment depends on the connection between you and the clinician.This is why I offer a complimentary,brief, session for us to meet and decide if working together feels right. I have been in the field of mental health for 28 years.My approach is, psychodynamic but tailor treatment arround my client's needs. My style is supportive yet analytical, direct, and active in sessions. This practice treats adults older than 21, and couples,no children or adolescents. Accept traditional Medicare,and most out of network plans.Medicaid not accepted as it doesnt cover private psychotherapy treatment.

I've been working with women and men to improve their lives for over twenty years. I began working with adolescents and young adults in an inpatient psychiatric environment and have expanded to include work in outpatient psychiatry and counseling, research, training and professional development. I received my MS in Social Work from Columbia University and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both New Jersey and New York. I have completed over ten years of supervised psychotherapy experience at Beth Israel Medical Center and Washington Square Institute. In my Hoboken Psychotherapy practice, I specialize in working with adults to maximize their potential.

Throughout my many years serving a young adult/adult population, I have gained a great respect for working collaboratively with each client to understand the most effective approach for the individual. My approach involves providing a nonjudgmental therapeutic environment in which we can gain a greater awareness of the individual's unique concerns and work from this awareness to affect change in the present.

Live life on your terms! Whether you're a Millennial, facing early life transitions or you're older and questioning your next act, step away from the expected to design your own unique life. Let's define your values and beliefs to create an authentic life that is worth living. I've had the privilege of helping smart, successful clients explore and discover their life purpose. Together, we redefined and strengthened personal boundaries, set aside lackluster careers and relationships, and made some life affirming changes!
