Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Old Bridge, NJ

Making the decision to engage in therapy can be challenging. It's important that you find a therapist you can connect with in order to have a fulfilling experience. The choice to work with me can be the basis for you to feel comfort in processing presenting issues and exploring needs for growth/change. My goal is to help you find comfort in this relationship and work together with you to explore your personal needs and desires for therapy. By using cognitive behavioral, strength based and mindfulness treatments I will support you in this process.

My ideal client would be someone who has or wants to work on goals for themselves and needs support and help to achieve them. Whether it is goals surrounding healing, coping, or change, I meet clients where they are and walk with them in their journey.

I specialize in Trauma & PTSD, Domestic Violence, and Anxiety. My ideal client is ready to be open and accepting of the therapeutic process, committed to participating and collaborating. My ideal client is looking to either begin or continue their healing journey from the past to gain a more insightful and healthy perspective on life in the now and future.

My ideal client is a child or adolescent who is struggling with anxiety and their goal would be to learn effective coping skills and strategies to better manage this. Usually children want a quick fix- so I like to provide them with lots of quick breathing exercises or creating a "tool box" with fidgets and anything that we have worked on together to help them when they are feeling anxious or overwhelmed.

I am dedicated to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I work alongside my clients to identify their strengths, navigate challenges, and cultivate a sense of resilience. Using evidence-based modalities such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational techniques, and strength-based approaches, I empower my clients to develop practical skills for enhancing their overall well-being.

Support is here; don't delay...I strive to provide an environment that advocates compassion, support, and understanding. My goal is to help resolve conflict by offering strategies and techniques to promote change while helping you feel safe, secure, and comfortable. I utilize various approaches, including solution-focused, and cognitive behavioral techniques. I provide therapeutic services to children, adolescents, and adults. I offer services to support you with including, but not limited to, stress, sadness, and anxiety. I would enjoy speaking with you further so that I may answer any questions.

Taking the first step to attend therapy can be nerve wrecking and intimidating but can also demonstrate great insight and self-empowerment. My belief and intention in providing therapy is to collaboratively work with individuals to meet their unique needs and to develop a healthy and positive sense of self in order to accomplish personal goals. I also believe the therapeutic process is most effective when a strong therapeutic relationship is established; therefore, I provide an empathic, supportive, open, direct, and nonjudgmental environment with some humor mixed in when appropriate.

My ideal client is person who has been experiencing some difficulties understanding and or manipulating through their environment. Perhaps this client needs a group to work overcome shyness and learn to speak up for themselves or perhaps this client misreads social situations. My ideal clients range from 3-35. I service struggling parents/families and teens/young adults/adults in areas of depression, anxiety, and self-care. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, I will be offering teletherapy sessions as an option to any individuals who are having a difficult time adjusting to this ever evolving health crisis.
