Anxiety Therapists in New Jersey
I’m not sure I have an “ideal client”, however, there are populations and issues I am more comfortable in handling and have had experience in. This includes women’s issues, interpersonal relationship issues, young and older adult populations, anxiety and depressive disorders, and personality disorders. I hope we can work on challenging and reframing cognitive distortions and/or work on communication and boundary skills. I hope the goal is for them to return to a more homeostatic life and be able to develop healthier coping skills to use in everyday life.

I am trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR (helpful for anxiety, grief, abuse, sexual assault, disturbing memories, bullying, performance anxiety, PTSD), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Thought Field Therapy which is similar to “Tapping” (effective for anxiety, trauma, depression, phobias, and more), plus Functional Medicine and Homeopathy.
If you are tired of feeling this way, know that there is hope. Sometimes life seems to get off track, but you can reclaim your life...regaining strength, balance, direction, and meaning. Therapy can be a place to begin this journey and gain lasting relief. Through a whole mind-body approach, we will explore all contributing factors, and address the root causes of your symptoms. I've been helping people for over 20 years with a variety of issues. So if you are dealing with trauma, abuse history, depression, anxiety, PTSD, eating disorders, or just day-to-day stressors, I will work with you to achieve the healing you deserve.

Finding a therapist can be difficult, especially when experiencing life challenges, symptoms of depression or anxiety, or other stressors. For those of us with marginalized identities, it is crucial to identify spaces where we can explore and address these issues. In my practice, I work with women and LGBTQIA+ people to address issues related to identity, life transitions, family, work, relational conflict, self-esteem, and shame. I specialize in working with the relational others (e.g., partners, spouses, family, and friends) of transgender people to explore self-identity and transition (social, emotional, physical, & medical).

A first therapy session is a little like a blind date; if the interpersonal chemistry isn't right, there shouldn't be a second date. At the end of our first session together, if you feel safe, secure, understood and supported, then, and only then, do we go forward. Otherwise I'll refer you elsewhere. If it feels to you like we can work well together, you can probably get beyond your struggles with depression, anxiety and/or relationship issues more quickly than you think. I look forward to meeting you
