Therapists in Lyndhurst, NJ

Are you struggling with depression and anxiety? Using alcohol or drugs to cope? Do you find it hard to communicate your needs in your relationships? Feeling frustrated that you keep repeating the same unhealthy relationship patterns over and over again? We will work together to identify the underlying reasons for your sadness and anxiety, and resolve challenges in your relationships. Therapy can help you feel calmer, less stressed, change unhealthy relationship patterns, improve the level of trust and communication in your relationships, and lead to positive lifestyle changes.

Do you struggle with relationship issues, substance use or the impact of trauma getting in the way of your day to day? Do you feel sad, anxious, or stressed just trying to get through the week? Do you wish your life could somehow be easier? More than ever, people are feeing overwhelmed just by managing, never mind understanding, their experiences. I support individuals to improve your well-being, gain clarity about feelings and experiences, and learn effective ways to manage challenges. I often connect with young adults navigating challenges such as mood issues, PTSD, addiction, LGBQ + TGNB lived experience, and men’s health.

We all want to feel whole and achieve meaningful goals in our lives. To do so requires honesty and dedication, especially around the insecurities and defense mechanisms that have become ingrained within our personality. I can help you zoom out to gain more familiarity with your true Self trying to break through the surface of your persona. On one hand, it can be very anxiety provoking to feel that there is more to life than this. But, at the same time, it is an invitation to know, forgive and love yourself unconditionally. An invitation to feel into unknown selves and shadows, to accept You exactly the way you really are.

If you are feeling confused, unmotivated, distracted, or have difficulty staying on task, this can be a sign that you are experiencing a disruption and conflict within yourself that is preventing you from achieving desired goals or enjoying your current life. While we travel this path we call life, sometimes we encounter obstacles that seem like we just can’t overcome. We all have goals in life and we desire the best things for ourselves but sometimes we don't always take the right course of action for ourselves. Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors reflect a hidden belief system within ourselves which decides our path in life.

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.

Therapy is an opportunity to express yourself in a safe environment, to heal and to experience personal growth. I'm a warm and dedicated therapist with a collaborative approach and over 20 years of experience. I'll help you to make meaning of and more fully understand any conflicts and/or obstacles you may be experiencing. We will work together towards resolving those challenges by establishing positive coping strategies, identifying your personal strengths and helping you to see things from different perspectives.

Especially for some of the most successful among us, we can hold ourselves to the highest standards of performance in all areas. Sometimes we may feel that we're supposed to have all the answers to the challenges life throws our way, even when that isn’t always possible. An achievement focus can come at the expense of other areas of our lives. I see therapy as a collaborative experience. I work with individuals and couples to help unlock what holds them back to gain an understanding of how our histories shape our present, while building a foundation of skills in the here-in-now to promote healing and a future that is self-defined.

Are you seeking a collaborative relationship with a therapist who will help you make sense of your current symptoms and challenges and figure out ways to address them?

Hi! My name is Cynthia. If you are seeking help, that’s a great first step! There may be life experiences that leaves us feeling overwhelmed and alone. I believe that, with support, individuals have within them the ability to self-actualize and grow to one’s full potential. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental environment where we work together to improve self-awareness and change old patterns to take charge of one’s life. I am a LPC with extensive experience providing clinical services for children, adolescents, adults, and families in a variety of settings including private practice, residential treatment, and in-home/community.

Frequently, people who have experienced trauma develop extraordinary survival skills. Often the strategies that were critical for survival when you were a child, thwart the ability to develop satisfying work, family and/or romantic relationships in adulthood. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to transcend patterns that are holding you back from achieving your goals, and realizing your potential. This often includes addressing family, career, and relationship issues within the treatment as well as recognizing thinking and/or behavior which may be harmful or holding you back.

I believe that everyone has the ability to grow and achieve their goals. Sometimes it's harder than others. I work with people who want to cultivate real change in their lives, whether that's learning to manage depression or anxiety, getting along better with other people or their partners, or helping them accomplish that career goal they desire. I believe that establishing a good connection with my clients and creating manageable and growth-oriented goals can lead to lasting positive change.
