Therapists in High Bridge, NJ

Se sta pensando di chiamarmi, è per almeno una di queste ragioni: ha dedicato senza successo considerevole energia e tempo a risolvere la sua ansia, le sue paure, le sue ossessioni, le sue perdite e il suo trauma, la sua tristezza, i suoi fallimenti nelle sue relazioni o nella sua produttività; é stanco di ripetere gli stessi errori e comportamenti e non é stato in grado di cambiare; é stato respinto, ha sperimentato di non essere amato, compreso, preso nella sua unicità; o non ha fatto tutto ciò che desidera per essere più coraggioso, creativo, per essere più come persona.

Understanding that psychotherapy is such a personal matter, I feel the best approach is one that is very patient centered. That means I tailor therapy to meet the individual needs of each client. I believe in working together collaboratively to set achievable therapy goals toward the desired outcome of therapy, so you can experience greater happiness, stability and a more meaningful life. I have experience in multiple treatment modalities & utilize an integrative approach so that I can apply what will be most effective and best suited to you. Most clients find this approach helpful and sensitive to their needs. I know you will too.

I enjoy working with couples to help them communicate and rediscover a love that builds beyond barriers. I also enjoy helping families learn to relate to one another and tackle problems as a team. I strive to equip clients with tools to cultivate greater self-awareness and overcome whatever obstacles they face. My approach takes into account counseling techniques that are incredibly useful in multicultural communities, helping clients to break free from old patterns and navigate new meaning in their life and relationships.

Do you have relational conflicts? I help individuals, couples, and families to improve communications. In life we face challenging times: Loss, divorce, transitions and disappointments. Chronic pain, illness, grief and the loss of a loved one often compel individuals to seek therapy. I also specialize in adolescents and college students assisting them with growth and independence. Many issues occur, such as sexual identity, friendship conflicts, drugs and alcohol as well as academic challenges. Building trust in a safe place, may help you transform and grow. Therapy allows a new awareness of life and love can occur!

Your inner dialogue is on a constant loop that tells you, you’re not good enough, you’ll always feel this way, or you have to be perfect.

You aren’t sure how you got to this place, but you know you want out. There is hope. You don’t have to feel this way and you don’t have to do it alone. We can work together to improve your life.
