Infertility Therapists in Cranford, NJ

I believe that therapy is a way of better understanding one's thoughts, feelings and actions, allowing a person to elicit change and ultimately become the best version of themselves. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, specializing in work with both Individuals and Couples. I treat adults of all ages, who may be dealing with stress and anxiety, depression, low self-esteem/confidence, relationship related issues, maternal mental health issues (such as infertility, loss, postpartum depression and/or anxiety), as well as, new stage of life stressors and transitions.

Hasn't anxiety cost you enough already? Maybe it's one small decision keeping you stuck on the hamster wheel in your brain for days, thinking and re-thinking your options. Doubting yourself over and over. If you could just stop, you absolutely would. Your anxiety always seems to get the best of you. You wonder, why can’t you be like everyone else and just let things go? Easier said than done. No one else seems as tangled in their thoughts as you feel like you are. You know this isn’t your best life, but it's all that you know. You're stuck. You know there has to be a better way, but it eludes you.

An ideal client for a mental health professional would be an individual with a mental health disorder such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, etc., who demonstrates the motivation to change and improve their well-being. This client should be committed to attending therapy sessions regularly, keeping appointments, and actively engaging in the therapeutic process to manage or overcome their diagnosis.

As a Clinical Health Psychologist, I use evidence-based interventions tailored to each client's values and preferences to help make real, lasting change. I specialize in helping people with depression, cancer, insomnia, and tobacco use, though treat general mental health and stress too.

My ideal client needs help with the services I specialize in. I typically consider the client's current habits and strengths to guide us on where to start goal setting. Showing up to therapy is a huge step, and I commend any client who takes that initiative.

My name is Nicole & I am a Licensed Associate Counselor with a passion for guiding others as they navigate the challenges of life, whatever they may be! My experience in working with diverse populations throughout the lifespan has included working with those who suffer from anxiety, depression, grief & loss, relationship difficulties, as well as life threatening and/or chronic illnesses, with a special interest in treating those facing a cancer diagnosis for themselves or a loved one. As a survivor, I understand first-hand the hardships & grief as well as the hope & perseverance needed to accept & overcome.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, anger, or the loss of a loved one with a sense of feeling lost, hopeless, and without purpose? Are you struggling with life transitions & open to delving deeper to explore those issues? I primarily work with men like this, who have arrived at this point in life feeling "stuck" or "at a dead end," struggling with relationship issues and feeling disconnected & frustrated. My job is to help you re-negotiate your relationship with your feelings, see you as okay, and understand the meaning of your upbringing or narratives you've learned on "how you ought to be."

My ideal client is curious about themselves and the world and actively participates in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with young adults and older adults, but I'm not limited to these populations. My ideal client is at a place of feeling "stuck" in their life. Whether that be a career transition, deciding on a college major, feeling lost in a relationship, or a new onset of symptoms. I am also comfortable with helping individuals unpack their past to understand their current habits. My ideal client wants to understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to develop self-awareness and self-compassion along the way.

My ideal client is one that is open to change. A client that, even if they see no way through, they trust that I am there to do all I can to help them, not just to listen, watch the clock, and end a session, but to be invested in their transformation from start to finish. My ideal client is one who is comfortable, even if not at first, celebrating themselves and not being fearful about trying again. Things aren't always successful on our first try, but my ideal client will understand this, embrace the lesson in each situation, and be willing to use what they've learned to try again.

My ideal client is someone who feels like their life just isn’t working - maybe they’re struggling with unresolved anxiety and depression or leaning on alcohol or marijuana a little too much to cope with everyday stressors. Maybe they’re going through a big life transition or just aren’t satisfied with their relationships. Whatever their current issues are, this person wants to feel better but doesn’t know how to get there. They are open to therapy and ready to see where it could lead them.

Life is full of change, both expected and unexpected. Things like marriage, parenting, work, school, adolescence, divorce, illness, and death can feel overwhelming. Sometimes a major event can leave one feeling lost. Other times just coping with the day to day is a challenge. My clients often express that they are feeling scattered, anxious, angry, and sad. I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families at different stages of their life-cycles. I specialize in helping them cope with their feelings, as they move through these periods of transition, so they can learn how to be resilient.

My ideal client is a young adult aged between 18-30. Their issues and needs may look like learning how to control anxiety symptoms, increasing emotion regulation and distress tolerance while improving mindfulness. This client is motivated and willing to work with the therapist to learn how to change their life to meet their goals.

Healing and change come from awareness, understanding and self-compassion. Therapy will help deepen your understanding of what makes you who you are. This process is empowering and will be the driving force in making positive changes in your life. I have a rich clinical history working with children, adults and couples facing an array of challenges. With extensive experience treating trauma survivors I have been trained in EMDR and incorporate a mindfulness approach into my practice.

I have been in private practice in Westfield since 1995 with an emphasis on adolescents and adults in need of help coping with life's stressors. These stressors include, but are certainly not limited to depression and anxiety, developmental issues,school anxiety and school refusal, women's issues, parenting difficulties and social issues to name a few. Women in particular often cope with a great deal of stress related to work, family,loss and from time to time, serious illness. These strains can become overwhelming and coping may become difficult and sometimes impossible to do alone.
