Female Therapists in Midland Park, NJ

When life becomes stressful, burdensome, and overwhelming, everyone needs a place to turn to. Sometimes the stress of everyday life puts us in an emotional place where we want to unload our worries. Do you find yourself feeling lonely, depressed, anxious, sad? Do you often feel worried, angry, or conflicted? Maybe you are struggling with parenting issues, family stressors, relationship conflicts, or unresolved trauma.

When struggling on life's path, talking with a professional offers support, helping to make changes when we feel stuck. I work with those experiencing depression,anxiety or unable to reach life goals. also, with those mandated for treatment due to DUI, or family members struggling with addiction. I provide a safe, non-judgemental, compassionate environment to explore; family relationships, marital discord, work environment issues, adolescent peer group issues such as; alcohol/drug abuse and assistance in increasing self esteem. My style is warm and engaging. My therapeutic dynamics are based on a collaborative effort using supportive therapy, solution based therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques.

We all want to be our best self. As different and one-of a kind as we are, we all want similar things; to reach our goals and be happy. Having the ability to be more positive, forgiving, successful, valuable and loving are just a few things we desire. Finding the courage to speak our minds, feeling connected to each other, discovering what our hearts are searching for and remaining determined is something we all strive for. At the end of the day, we desire a sense of belonging, self-worth and the ability to have radical compassion.

After 33 years working at a clinic that served a varied population, and after working as the Director of a Partial Hospital Program for half of those years, I retired only to find that I missed working to help people succeed at resolving the issues that presented them with life challenges. The feedback I have received from my clients is that I have been of great help to them and that they have found me to be warm, supportive, insightful and easy to relate to. I also bring with me, a wide variety of personal experiences. I love my work.

“We bereaved are not alone. We belong to the largest company in all the world — the company of those who have known suffering.” — Helen Keller. Although grief is most often associated with emotions in response to a death, my clinical training and experience has made it evident to me that we can experience grief due to loss of a person, pet, ideals, culture, disappointment in life’s trajectory, a non death related end of a relationship, chronic illness, and so many more common but painful experiences in life. Grief, loss, emotional pain in relationships is ubiquitous with living and it by no means has to be linear.
