Therapists for Teens in Medford, NJ

Hello, I am Katrese and I am an adolescent and family therapist licensed in New Jersey with over 8 years of experience working as a therapist. I am a graduate of Rutgers University School of Social Work. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, person centered, strength focused and family systems. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I am primarily a female-focused therapist working with adolescent, teen and adult females in the state of New Jersey, through virtual sessions.

My speciality is in anxiety, depression and PTSD. With my person-centered approach, I use a mix of modalities tailored specifically to each individual's needs and goals. I combine my education, along with over a decade of experience, to best treat each individual.

Adults, children and adolescents, we treat all ages! Is your child struggling with anxiety, regulating their emotions, managing friendships or dealing with grief? Is your adolescent experiencing anxiety, depression, low motivation or having difficulty managing intense emotions?

We can help by guiding individuals-children through adults-in the process of gaining insight and coping skills to make real, lasting positive changes.

We can all agree close loving relationships are complicated. Do any of these concerns sound familiar to you? "We are considering living together and getting married, but we have a lot of apprehensions." "We are at our wit's end. We fight constantly. There is never any resolution." "Sometimes I feel like I married my mother or father." "I get flashbacks of the affair. I am triggered by everything." "We feel like roommates, like ships passing in the night." "We are tired of trying to please each other and failing." "I want to feel like I matter to my partner. I am always last behind work, extended family, and friends."

Life can be difficult and most of us are doing the best that we can given our circumstances. Sometimes, things become too stressful and we need outside help. Taking the first step can be scary, but it also shows a level of courage. Ironically, the solutions we may be looking for reside within us- we just need a little help to discover them. With over 27 years experience as a social worker, I have worked with women and female teens of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. I am also able to communicate in Spanish.

My counseling is focused on individuals and relationships. I have worked with many who have experienced abuse whether that is verbal, emotional, physical, or spiritual.

I find it fulfilling to work with clients regarding their academic or career choices and circumstances, and to assist them with realizing and showcasing their abilities and strengths.

I’ve fit into a listener role even from a young age, always finding myself listening to others’ stories and experiences.

I have been working in the field of psychology since 1995 and have vast experience working with clients of all ages and with challenging issues.

I employ a biopsychosocial model coupled with psychoeducation, humor and cognitive-behavioral and interpersonal therapy as a foundation. As a former Division I athlete, I am sensitive to the challenges athletes face and also practice sports psychology.
