Note- To all the early birds: there is always time for therapy. I offer virtual sessions as early as 5am. There is always time for therapy!

In my therapeutic approach, I blend compassion with a focus on recovery. I incorporate cognitive-behavioral techniques and psychoanalysis to help clients effectively manage their present circumstances while delving into the roots of potential issues. My philosophy centers on empowering and validating clients, creating a therapeutic sanctuary where individuals can freely explore their vulnerabilities. I also place great emphasis on connecting with clients through their passions, recognizing the transformative potential of shared interests in the therapeutic process.

Many individuals find themselves in situations where they are confused and unsure of what to do. When this happens, I am here for you. Working with individuals and couples, I will help provide the cognitive tools necessary to be able to make healthy, intelligent decisions that will greatly improve your quality of life. You are always assured an empathetic ear, non-judgmental attitude and skillful service to help decrease or eliminate the difficulties that daily living sometimes provides.

My name is Scott Marqueling (pronounced "Mark-ling"), LMFT. I've been a practicing therapist for seven years, working in a variety of community-based settings with clients ranging from 5 to 65 years old.

We often hear the expression “life is a journey”. That journey can fill us with so many experiences, some of which we may not be ready for. I specialize in working with preteens, teens, and young adults who are feeling stuck in their own thoughts, but looking to break free. Whether you are caught in a cycle of anxiety or depression, or experiencing ambivalence with a life transition, we will work together to untangle these complexities so you can regain a sense of empowerment.

For over the past 16 years I have worked with adults and adolescents struggling with diverse mental health issues. This can include anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD,eating disorders, substance abuse, and borderline personality disorder. These issues can be influenced by stress from external triggers, including trauma, family issues, medical issues, work stress, relationship issues, and grief and loss. Throughout my extensive experience in hospital and private practice settings, I find individuals often feel intensely overwhelmed and stuck in negative thinking patterns and behaviors. By developing a therapeutic relationship, we can create a treatment plan to increase positive feelings and facilitate effective behavioral changes.

Adam Herbert is a Psychologist in New Jersey who has been practicing since 2023. He holds a doctoral degree (Psy.

He prioritizes establishing and fostering trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship, while working in collaboration with the client to achieve their goals and reach their true potential. His theoretical approach is based in psychodynamic theory and integration.

Do you experience the blues, anger, anxiety? Lost pleasure in things you usually enjoy? Feeling hopeless/helpless, misunderstood, mistreated, abandoned, alone? Stuck in your career, in your relationships, lost? My approach is supportive and Insight driven. I encourage clients to express their feelings, supporting them in a judgement free zone. In a warm environment you'll feel supported, appreciated, validated. I teach you assertiveness skills and anger management so you can advocate for yourself. I'll underline maladaptive patterns, helping you change them. I'll empower you to regain your footing. Together we'll discover a more tolerable existence.

Life can be challenging in the best of times. In these especially tumultuous times everything is harder, and it can become overwhelming to cope. You are here because you want to change…or maybe you just need a little help and support through tough times. Using an integrative, holistic approach I will provide you with the empathy and tools you need to feel and do better. You are in charge, you set the destination and the goals you want to achieve, and we try to get there together. I provide compassionate therapeutic support for children and adolescents, adults, couples, parents and families.

I value building a supportive alliance based on honesty and frank communication. My approach is psychoanalytic integrated with cognitive behavioral, body based, emotionally focused and mindfulness approaches. We talk together to find out what works best for you. I am well suited to working with trauma victims, couples and families, and those with an interest in the bodymind perspective. Years spent living abroad inspired an interest in cross cultural dynamics and diversity.

I work with people who feel stuck and tethered to old ways of being. I work in a flexible, broad based manner using strategies to help with immediate relief of symptoms and in a more open-ended way to help cultivate curiosity and interest in who you are and what you want from life. I believe therapy is about finding the freedom from within to make life more of what you want it to be.

Whatever feelings or difficulty you are experiencing that that have brought you to your current standing position, I hope to help you to gain insight to the following: relationship dynamics, gain more effective communication tools, conflict identification/management, gain accountability, explore areas of vulnerability, clarify expectations, identify triggers, enhance decision making process and problem solving skills. The process will not be linear but the journey will provide you with skills, connections and inner growth.
