Substance Use Therapists in Glen Rock, NJ

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, substance use or other issues maybe I can help. You don't have to continue feeling so isolated or feel you're the only person on the planet experiencing what you are going through. Having someone to talk with about your issue can be a tremendous relief and is the first step towards healing. Change is possible and can happen for anyone.

As a licensed psychotherapist in New York and New Jersey, I offer in-person and virtual sessions to individuals, couples, and families. If you and your partner are constantly arguing or not communicating at all, a 4-session discernment therapy may be the best starting point to address issues in a supportive, conflict-free zone. If you are separated or divorced, please reach out for more information on a weekly support group.

You keep telling yourself that you’re overreacting. You desperately try to convince yourself that there’s no reason for you to be feeling so anxious, sad, and overwhelmed. But it’s no use. And the constant inner nagging and self-criticism only make things worse. You’re always on edge, prepared for some unseen danger lurking around the corner. You can’t sleep at night, and concentrating is becoming impossible. Every decision you need to make is over-analyzed and second-guessed to the point of complete paralysis. You desperately want to find peace, but nothing you’ve tried has helped. You’re out of ideas, and it feels hopeless.

I value working with clients from different age groups, gender, and cultural backgrounds. I am highly skilled in individual therapy. I possess extensive experience working with clients who have experienced severe trauma, abuse, and substance abuse dependence.

I find an integrative treatment approach works best. I like to explore how past experiences affect the clients' present lives. The goal is for clients to experience growth and more satisfying lives.

Would you like to manage the stressful issues and events of your life more effectively? Are everyday problems more difficult than they should be? Are the extraordinary or traumatic events completely overwhelming? Is your personal and professional life not as fulfilling as you want? Is alcohol or drug use exacerbating your problems? Are your usual methods of coping with problems failing to bring relief? Maybe it's time to try a new approach. Crisis, as traumatic as it may seem, can be an opportunity to examine and re-negotiate life events and life choices for a more fulfilling future.
