I work with individuals of all ages to achieve a greater sense of wellbeing. I believe that by learning behavioral skills clients can enhance their capabilities to live the life that they want to live. Our feelings are closely connected to how we perceive situations and if those perceptions are distorted or inaccurate it can lead to feelings of distress including anxiety and depression. By using evidenced based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be explored to achieve more adaptive and accurate perspectives.

At LFC our core values are described in the acronym of R.E.A.C.H. R = Relationships: building a healthy relationship with Jesus to have healthy relationship with others.

C = Confidentiality: confidentiality is of utmost importance. H = Healing: the ultimate goal in our counseling is to bring healing to mind, body and spirit.

My ideal client would be the individual reading this who is ready to take the next step to betterment- YOU.

My 25 years of experience includes working with adults in the partial care, intensive outpatient and outpatient levels of care. In a comfortable, non-judgmental atmosphere, I work collaboratively with clients to help them improve their coping skills, problem solving skills and increase motivation for change. I support the change process whether it relates to such issues as substance abuse,marital problems, poor communication in the family, depression or anxiety. I offer practical strategies to cope with every day life such as anger management techniques, assertiveness skills training, and communication and relaxation techniques.

Depression causes hopelessness. Anxiety affects work, family, relationships, enjoyment of life's simple pleasures. Exposure to trauma can cause a multitude of symptoms. If you are facing any of these stressors, if you are a survivor of/or witness to trauma, treatment can help. Through cognitive therapy, my clients have learned to overcome depression, anxiety, PTSD. I also treat individuals court mandated for treatment through Children and Youth Services, probation and parole, etc. Additionally I work with adolescents dealing with behavior concerns, referred by schools/families. Family/couples counseling is also available, as well as treatment for psychosis.

My name is Carolyn Kramer LCSW and I am a licensed psychotherapist. I have over 15 years’ experience working with adolescents and adults. My approach to therapy focuses on the following: building trust, setting goals, gaining insight and learning skills. I can help you understand the emotions that delay your progress. People often struggle when there are too many conflicting emotions around an issue, and I can help create clarity.

Are you struggling to connect with yourself and others? Have you experienced a traumatic event(s) and feel yourself struggling to cope? Are you seeking a safe space to work through life challenges? Primarily, I work with individuals who have experiences of trauma, anxiety, fear, shame, relationship challenges, depression, and personality disorders. My clients are of all ages (5 and up), and in all stages of their lifespan, I offer traditional therapy and therapeutic yoga to those ready to begin healing through connection. You will be met with radical acceptance, no judgment, free to express yourself as we navigate towards healing.

People who seek therapy often are looking for relief from problems that they have not been able to resolve on their own. I help by providing practical solutions to change patterns of behavior or unsatisfying relationships. My approach is to work with clients to understand their experiences and their goals so that we can collaborate in the process of finding new perspectives to facilitate change.

As a professional, I have advanced knowledge and experience in understanding the thoughts and feelings that underlie many issues, especially eating disorders. It helps to recognize any thoughts that may keep you stuck in old behaviors that use to serve you well. It helps to learn new coping skills, to give you the power to move forward.

I use a person-centered approach and DBT strategies to identify and move toward resolving the issues most important to you. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Therapist, I provide body-mind interventions to support those suffering with PTSD. I've also helped people with depression, anxiety, bipolar, self injury, and suicidal ideation. The people with whom I've worked have been able to identify hope, learn to cope with stressful situations, find emotion regulation, and extinguish unwanted behaviors .

How we feel about ourselves, and how we perceive and take in information is based off of the lens at which we view the world. I would love to help you discover why you feel and behave the way you do, free of judgement! My role is to help you cultivate a better relationship with yourself and others.

Hello! My name is Dr. Chelece-Atavia Brown, a Pre-Licensed Social Worker (LSW) for New Jersey and a certified facilitator in Teen Mental Health First Aid by the National Council of Well-Being. I have experience in providing therapeutic services for children, teens, adults, couples, and groups. I assist high-achieving Black women and men with navigating life stressors. I'm passionate about bridging the gap between faith and mental health to increase an individual's quality of life.

Are you tired of experiencing the same patterns and want to heal at the root of your symptoms? I specialize in treating trauma, addictions, and self esteem issues - in particularly with women and teenagers. When my clients first come in, their lives are overrun by fear and insecurities. They carry around deep shame about who they are and never feel quite “good enough”. They want to be confident and heal the patterns that are holding them back but do not know where to start.

I love working with all different types of clients, and I find that I learn from those that I work with. I love working with anyone who wants to make a change or achieve a goal.

Getting started in a therapy takes a great deal of courage. Whatever the reasons that brought you here I am confident that we will work through them together. Therefore, my intention will be to help guide you through the process of self-realization, self-improvement, and strive for the greatest degree of balance possible in your life. My combined life and professional experience will allow me to work closely with you to identify the issue, as specifically as possible, the solution to that problem, and what is really getting in the way of you reaching that solution.

In my professional work I have learned to empathize deeply and to make observations and interpretations based on years of accumulated clinical knowledge and experience. While my professional training has been invaluable, my clients (and my colleagues, too) have been the most extraordinary teachers of life and healing. Through my work I have learned to be more open and compassionate and more fully human. This enables me to be a more effective facilitator in the healing process of psychotherapy. It is always a privilege to do emotional healing work with another human being--both of us are enriched.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had such an enormous impact on how we live our daily lives. In my experience throughout this time, not only are we faced with horrendous grief and loss to the virus, many of the underlying mental health issues that were present prior to the pandemic, have now risen to the surface and been causing all sorts of havoc. If you are experiencing increased anxiety, depression, struggling with financial hardship, substance abuse or coping with past trauma, therapy is a place to start on the road to learning to cope with this life we are given and this situation we have been forced to persevere through.

I am committed to working with individuals who want to more fully understand themselves and the origins of their personal unhappiness, distress and suffering, their inability to connect more deeply with others and have successful relationships, their struggles in work, and even their inabilities in having fun! The development of a collaborative relationship between you and your therapist is central in any successful therapy, but especially when doing in-depth therapy, where we will be working towards helping you achieve a deeper awareness of the formative experiences of your life, not only intellectually, but also emotionally.
