I cover several areas including anxiety, depression, cancer, infertility, anger management, chronic pain, grief, trauma, and individuals with special needs.
I have been in private practice for more than 20 years. I work in Northern New Jersey and provide short-term psychotherapy using psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, sensorimotor psychotherapy, EMDR and IFS. I feel using an integrated model produces the best results. Every client is different so it's necessary to use multiple modalities --a one size fits all model does not work in therapy. I like working in partnership with clients. I am approachable, warm, nurturing and active in my sessions. I believe it's essential to be available to clients and return phone calls and emails on a timely basis

Dealing with anxiety and trauma can feel lonely and debilitating.
I am a seasoned clinical social worker with an interest in working with adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety, OCD, panic, phobias and trauma disorders. I use my calm and authentic demeanor to create an inviting and safe environment for my clients to explore their inner and outer worlds. Many people with anxiety feel that it limits their functioning in some important way. I use a number of processes to help my clients improve their well being. For instance, I typically open sessions with a grounding exercise towards helping clients feel more oriented and safe in the present moment.

I am a therapist whose goal is to establish a caring and safe relationship with my clients where they feel valued and respected.

I commonly hear, "Why do I keep feeling anxious/depressed?"; "Why do I keep doing the same thing?" I help people at all stages of life figure out those answers and use what they learn about themselves. There is no lasting change without first understanding. Through individual and group therapies, I help people recognize their unique patterns. Through respectful conversation and observations, we will work toward identifying your healthy and unhealthy character traits. As you become a better observer of your existing patterns, you can be freer to live healthier and avoid recurrent pitfalls.

Anxiety Therapists

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?

Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.

How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?

The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?

Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.

How effective is treatment for anxiety?

Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
