Coaching Therapists in Nutley, NJ

Are you feeling emotionally or physically disconnected from your partner? Is communication not clear? Passion & intimacy gone within your relationship? Are you having some difficulty with your sexual behaviors, urges or desires? Unsure of your sexuality? Are you a therapist or professional helper? Feeling disconnected in a relationship can leave you feeling unloved, undesirable and alone. Having sexual issues can be embarrassing and alienating. Not being accepted due to your sexuality can be hurtful. My affirming and empathetic approach can help you gain a sense of normalcy, dig deeper and begin to make the changes you desire.

Are you feeling anxious and out of control when you think about your child? Do you have questions about relationships or parenting? I have a background in both development and psychotherapy. I teach parents about development and help them learn what is "getting in the way" of parenting the way they want to. I also help couples "get on the same page" with parenting. Children come here to enhance development, learn social skills and have good self esteem. Children with developmental, behavioral and sensory concerns find a safe place to grow and explore. Parent Coaching is also available.

When you come to me, it's totally normal to wonder how therapy works. I've been in your shoes, feeling unsure about it all. Therapy can seem mysterious and overwhelming. That's why I focus on connecting with you and helping you deal with what's happening in your life right now. In my six years of helping people, I've seen how we can overcome anxiety, depression, and fears together. I've also supported clients dealing with tough situations like loss, family issues, and trauma. And just so you know, I'm here to support everyone, no matter where they fall on the LGBTQI+ spectrum.

My therapeutic approach is rooted in exploring the underlying reasons for behavior. By providing a safe, empathetic space, I work collaboratively with clients to unravel the connections between their past and present. Utilizing evidence-based techniques and a client-centered approach, I assist individuals in gaining insights into their thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors, fostering empowerment & self-awareness. Embarking on a therapeutic journey can be transformative. Together, we will navigate the intricacies of your past, unravel patterns, and pave the way for a more fulfilling present and future.

I specialize in helping Latinas and women of color heal from intergenerational trauma and break long-standing generational patterns. As a mother, wife, and cycle breaker myself, I understand the deep-seated challenges that come with our histories and the immense potential for transformation. In my practice, I blend traditional psychotherapy with holistic approaches, considering all aspects of well-being—emotional, physical, and spiritual. My goal is to create a supportive and empowering environment where you can explore your past, present, and future with compassion and courage.

To parents, their children are the most important part of their lives. No one wants to see their child struggle. Navigating the difficult years from preteen to adolescent to young adult can be a daunting task. In my work with young people, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help work through issues related to emotional difficulties, academic struggles, and behavioral problems. CBT focuses on learning new ways to think, feel, and behave and addresses pressing issues. As treatment progresses, I want patients to feel more able to utilize new strategies and skills while improving the quality of their life, education, relationships, and experiences.
