Alcohol Use Therapists in Fair Lawn, NJ

Hello all! My primary specialization is addiction counseling for both addicts and their loved ones. I work with a multitude of addictive disorders such as alcohol use, drug abuse, gambling, sexual addiction, video game addiction, and other behavioral addictions. These issues have become unmanageable and have hindered my clients ability to function in everyday life. I provide a safe environment to help my clients acquire positive coping skills, education about their addiction, new perspectives on recovery, forming a recovery support network, and a relationship with God. Recovery is about treating the person, not just the addiction.

I enjoy my profession as a therapist. Every person faces life transitions and crises. All that we can control is how we respond to these challenges. My approach is to try to understand each client's unique needs, discover and mobilize the client's strengths, and enhance their coping skills. I strive to help my client use the precipitant, what brought them to therapy, to grow as a person from the therapy experience. My approach is to listen to my client, help them process their feelings, empower them to see that they have choices, and choose emotionally healthy options.

When things aren't going well and don't seem to be getting better, when you feel alone and disconnected, stressed, not good enough, angry or ashamed, resentful, or have been deeply hurt, you naturally try to ease that discomfort, but not always in the most helpful ways. Often, problematic thought patterns and behaviors arise from natural coping mechanisms that helped you get through difficult times, but are no longer helpful and are in fact now causing greater harm. Navigating all of this can be hard and at times, overwhelming.

Starting from the stresses of everyday life, trauma, or relationship issues, I am committed to providing compassionate and effective therapy to individuals seeking support and healing. As a mental health professional, I understand the profound impact that life's challenges can have on one's well-being and sense of self. I'm here to help you navigate these emotions and provide you with the tools for a happier life. I believe in the humanistic approach and draw on empathy and compassion to establish a safe, nurturing, non-judgmental, and comfortable therapeutic environment.

You are not defined by your story! If you're feeling alone, unnoticed, or invisible, believing that there's something wrong with you, that you're not good enough - I want to provide a safe and supportive space where you can be truly seen and heard. My goal is to help you process the events, emotions, and family of origin issues that have brought you to this point, to develop insight, self-awareness, and a stronger sense of self. As a trauma-focused therapist, I offer virtual sessions for clients in NJ, NY, FL, and MD, and I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve freedom, healing, and self-compassion through our work together.

If you are thinking of calling me, it is because of at least one of these reasons: you have unsuccessfully dedicated considerable energy and time to solving your anxiety, your fears, your obsessions, your losses and trauma, your sadness, your failures in your relationships or in your productivity; you have become tired of repeating the same mistakes and behaviors, and have not been able to change; you have been rejected, you have experienced not being loved, understood, taken in your uniqueness; or you have not done all that you wish to be more courageous, creative, to be more as a person.
