Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Mendham, NJ

It can be overwhelming when you know something in your life needs to change, but you don't know exactly what it is, how to get started, or who can help you take action. Losing hope can happen when you are stuck in the repeating cycle of destructive actions, negative thoughts, or painful emotions that don't seem to show any signs of improvement.

Anxious or depressed? Challenges in relationships? Problems with marriage or sex life? Whether you are managing a recent stressor or a long-standing issue, talking with an experienced, empathic psychologist can help you get the support that you need! I specialize in individual and couples/marital therapy, and work with a variety of age groups, from high school students to older adults.

It's not easy to begin speaking to a complete stranger about your personal concerns and struggles. I believe that therapy is first about creating a genuine and trusting relationship and then working toward goals that will help resolve the issues that may bring someone to counseling. I am solution-focused, strengths-based, and person-centered, tailoring my approach to individual clients' preferences and needs.

I am really happy you have taken the first step. I know it can be overwhelming to even think about starting the process of finding a therapist for yourself or a family member. Will this therapist understand me? Will she take the time to appreciate the unique challenges in my life? And above all, will she be able to help me get to a better place in my life?

If you or someone you care about is struggling, I can help. Mental health issues are challenging and I imagine it is difficult even knowing where to begin. It may be feelings of anxiety, sadness, anger or irritability, hopelessness, or even a lack of emotions causing you, a child, friend, or family member to have difficulty managing. I can provide support. Together we can develop healthy thought patterns, effective coping skills, manage stressors, and work within an individualized treatment plan to meet your needs.

When experiencing life's many challenges it can be hard to stay motivated and hopeful. I can offer support, encouragement, and guidance while providing practical skills that meet your unique needs. In my practice, I view the client-therapist relationship as one that is collaborative and I utilize a strength-based and solution-focused approach. You will be provided a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings free of judgment while we work together to achieve your goals. I strive for my clients to feel respected, heard, and validated during sessions.
