Throughout our lives we may find ourselves pulled in many directions, especially between our friends and family, work and social expectations. It’s no wonder that we find ourselves struggling to keep up and experiencing a wide range of social-emotional difficulties. This can have a negative impact on the way we view ourselves and the world around us. We may then find ourselves stuck in a cycle, during which our negative thoughts result in increased feelings of anxiety, anger and depression. Psychotherapy can help you break out of this cycle and work towards establishing healthier thought patterns and feeling better overall.
Dr. Fooks has extensive experience providing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to address various social-emotional difficulties. CBT is an evidence-based, structured treatment that focuses on challenging inaccurate cognitions and changing maladaptive patterns of behavior and is proven effective in coping with various mental health issues.
As a lifelong resident of Bergen County, Dr. Fooks understands the unique character of our community and feels privileged to be able to make a meaningful and lasting positive impact in people’s lives.
