Chronic Pain Therapists in Livingston, NJ
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.

We live in a world of uncertainty. Anxiety is on the rise and many people don't have the tools necessary to cope with this uneasiness. This feeling can often make people feel alone. I am here to help this process not seem as lonely and help you to get on a better path. I have extensive experience working in the field of oncology and helping individuals work through challenging, life-altering experiences. I help individuals cope with the challenges that arise during major life transitions and daily stressors. Having someone involved to help you navigate emotions that arise during this time can make the process less overwhelming.

I believe strongly that clients come in all different shapes and sizes and from different walks of life. Therefore, I do not have an ideal client, as my wish is to help anyone who needs it regardless of their experiences, needs, and goals. I welcome the experiences I will gain from having diverse clients.

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.

Dr. Morris is a clinical psychologist who provides a range of evidence-based therapy, group, and consulting services to children, adolescents, adults, families, schools, and organizations. She has an active and direct therapeutic style, which can be described more like coaching than traditional psychotherapy. She likes to infuse humor and irreverence throughout her work, disarming her clients and keeping the difficult process of confronting one’s issues as engaging and interesting as possible. Her goal is to increase motivation and reduce barriers that keep clients stuck in ineffective patterns in their lives and relationships.

People who seek treatment are often burdened with the worry that it might take too long, will "not work" or will come back. Since beginning clinical practice, I have always made it my business to have my patients engage in the therapy both in and out of session, understand the therapy process and stick to one's goals. The CBT model that I use and tailor to each particular individual's need, helps empower patients to reach their goals both in therapy and beyond... in life itself.

Do you spend time worrying about the future or rehashing the past? Is it hard to stop your mind from racing? Conversely, is it hard to get moving? Are you aware of how stress impacts the body? Do you feel out of balance in your eating, sleeping, exercise, substance use, technology or relationships? If you are looking for more ease and well being now, in this moment, you may thrive with mindfulness informed treatment. Mindful tools help us live life to the fullest, without judgment, in the only place we are truly alive, the present moment. It's more about discovering what's right with you, than wrong. It's simple, but not easy.

Making the decision to come to therapy is not always easy. I look forward to making this a helpful experience and to building a close collaborative relationship with you. Therapy provides an opportunity to learn more about yourself and to learn how to continue moving your life in a valued direction when you are feeling stuck. Childhood and adolescence can be a difficult time. I believe in taking a compassionate and focused approach to helping each person and their family find the support to continue moving their lives in a valued direction.
