Male Therapists in Morristown, NJ

Have you said to yourself “maybe I need help with this situation” in the past few months? Did you talk yourself out of making the call because the situation temporarily improved? This is a common statement that I hear from my patients and they often wish they had reached out for support earlier. We will work together to understand, identify, and manage your or your child’s needs, while providing useful and applicable skills for improved daily functioning. Happiness is often achieved with a mixture of different approaches that include

I have practiced psychotherapy since 1985 and it my privilege to be in a "people-helping" profession. I work with a rich diversity of individual people from all walks of life in the search for healing, wholeness and meaning in life.

In a first meeting with a client, one of the most important parts of the session is to understand not only what brings a person into the office, “the problem” so to speak, but also to build out a framework of what the client believes will be the solution. What will it look like when things are better? Rather than pathologizing, I prefer to focus within the wellness model of counseling, identifying strengths and resources available to contribute toward a person’s personal counseling goals.

It has been my privilege helping people rapidly heal from trauma both past and present incorporating God's guidance with proven psychological techniques-i.e., EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems, and Imago Therapy.

In addition I work with ADHD ( adult & adolescent ), addictions, ACOA, couple counseling, marital problems, divorce recovery , anxiety, Depression, unresolved grief issues, interventions, PTSD, DID, panic attacks....

You, or perhaps someone close to you, may have been struggling with a problem for some time and now have made the decision to seek professional assistance. This step comes neither easily nor comfortably. Feelings of apprehension, reluctance, and ambivalence are normal. Contrary to any self-talk that seeking help is a "sign of weakness", it is just the opposite. Engaging in therapeutic change is a bold and courageous act. I welcome hearing from you and will gladly discuss any matter of concern confidentially.

We all can reach points in our life where we become stuck and can struggle to manage thoughts, emotions and or relationships. These times can last for months or even years. Frequently we address these problems at least initially through our own means of self help. If these measures fail to unlock ourselves we can turn to psychotherapy as a process that can guide us to a different way of understanding and coping. Psychotherapy can assist in helping to understand and remove our self-imposed barriers.

PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT is what I study, practice, research and teach. Psychodiagnostics, my practice based Northern New Jersey with additional sites in Morristown and Montclair, exclusively evaluates and explains, diagnoses and describes. Assessments assemble upwards of twenty standardized, computerized, and objective tests into customized batteries designed to answer referral questions, discriminate among disorders and provide descriptions of persons and problems. In addition to differentially diagnosing mental health disorders, Psychodiagnostics provides independent child study team evaluations, data-driven rule-outs for ADHD and Autism, competency, guardianship and similar legal evaluations, and also assessments relevant to accommodations for the PSAT/SAT/GRE/LSAT.

Prior to entering the counseling field, I served as a NJ Registered Pharmacist (RPh). During this time, I obtained my Masters in Counseling from Montclair State & taught in that department for 3 years. For the next 20+ years, I served as Associate Director for The Willow Tree Center, an alcohol, tobacco and drug prevention & treatment agency. I am now in a private practice called Willow Tree Counseling Associates and provide services as a Licensed Professional Counselor and as a Licensed Clinical Alcohol & Drug Counselor.

I have spent 10 years working with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, interpersonal conflicts, and struggles with maintaining sobriety and recovery. For some, symptoms are a nuisance that they need help managing. For others, symptoms have compromised their lives so much that they are on disability and/or repeatedly unable to attain the life goals they have set for themselves. In each case, I work with the person to find thought processes and behaviors that can improve their quality of life.

At times we find ourselves at a difficult crossroad, uncertain how to grow and change in the face of our distress. With 35 years in private practice, my goal is to help individuals and couples find a path to unknot conflicts and develop more resilient and expansive modes of living. Many of the people I work with are embroiled in addictive behaviors such as alcohol and substance misuse, gambling, sex addiction and pornography. Others struggle with painful traumatic personal histories, chronic and acute illnesses, grief and loss. And still others are mired in destructive relationship patterns that undermine the quality of their lives.

Given the current Covid-19 pandemic, VIDEO AND PHONE SESSIONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE. Is your relationship in trouble? Do you wish you could communicate better with your partner? Most couples are able to positively transform their relationship when they are given the proper road map and the right tools. Over the last 24 years, I have created a therapeutic style that allows me to help my clients move from loneliness and despair, to relationships that reflect connection and joy. This is supported by my Master Level Certification from Terry Real's Relational Life Institute (one of only 30 internationally).

You are a fascinating being with valuable gifts to share. Unfortunately, it's hard for you to feel this way when you are overwhelmed by stress, consumed by worries, dampened with depression, feel scattered, or have painful memories you've been carrying for years. Under such circumstances it's easy to feel despair, hope seems so far out of reach. Therapy may not be easy work, but with dedication, persistance and the right guidance and support - change does happen. It can happen for you, too.

I specialize in providing individually tailored, evidence-based psychotherapy with a focus on increasing self-understanding - the way one makes sense of their own history, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and the examination of how and why individuals often engage in distressing or ineffective behaviors. I assist patients in improving their awareness of these patterns, and in the process make changes to allow for a richer and more meaningful life. I am currently licensed as a psychologist in the states of New York and New Jersey.

If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or pained, now is a good time to talk with a qualified professional.

With deep compassion, wise insight, and humor, we will figure out a better way of living. I specialize in listening in a focused, non-judgmental and skilled manner. We will look at patterns, internal conflicts, and belief systems that cause you deep suffering.

I believe that building a strong connection with my clients is the most effective tool in the counseling process. The energy I bring to my work and my sincere interest in the well-being of my clients helps to establish trusting relationships that foster growth. My counseling sessions incorporate therapeutic use of humor and creative solutions to help clients create positive and lasting change in their lives.

Now accepting Medicare, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety-related conditions including phobias, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, obsessive compulsvie disorder, health-related anxiety, and PTSD.
