One of the most difficult things to do is to recognize we need help... for even the strongest and most healthy can need a trusted mentor and healer at some point. Our personal lives and experiences shouldn't be trusted to just anyone; and it is difficult to find a qualified therapist who is both skilled in their work and able to connect with others in an empathetic way. Rob has this blend of unique and important abilities. He believes that successful therapy is working toward the ability to heal, recover, and thrive in one's life. Rob is a Clinical Director at Minisink Psychology & Psychotherapy in Ridgewood, NJ.

Life can be filled with stress, anxiety, and unhappiness but there are times that these feelings become overwhelming and difficult to manage. You worry about everything, experience irritability, exhaustion, restlessness, feel tense, lose control of your emotions and have difficulty finding pleasure in the things that you used to enjoy. You may feel like you have tried everything and do not know where to turn to next. Whether you are feeling panic at every turn or a sense of despair, you are tired of feeling this way and want something to change.

“You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”-MLK, Jr. Taking the first step can be a bit scary, but taking the first step toward wellness can add an empowering component to it. My goal is to provide you with a supportive and safe space in taking the walk toward change and wellness. With 15 years of experience providing direct care, I have a firm belief that we cannot talk about adversities, setbacks, failures, or traumas, without acknowledging resilience as well. I strive to help my clients shift from stress and anxiety to realizing their inner strength and external resources to overcome obstacles.

Working from a systemic perspective, I use a variety of trauma informed therapies including Attachment for parent/ child relationships, Child Centered Play Therapy for children, EFT, Gottman, Filial Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and IFS to facilitate a greater understanding of self and others within the context of your relationships.
Couples and parents face many challenges, not just in raising children, but in their adult relationships as well. Anxiety, stress, conflict, and difficult past experiences can affect the way we show up in the world for ourselves and for each other. Gradual work in understanding these experiences in a therapeutic and judgement free environment will help improve sense of self, strengthen relationships, reduce conflict, and increase confidence in the future.

If you, your child or a loved one are worried about starting counseling, or if you have additional questions, please contact me today.
It takes strength and courage to seek help. I applaud you for making it this far. I am a lifespan LPC and expressive arts therapist. My work is primarily with children (and families), adolescents and young adults, though I do additionally see adults individually as well as couples. Parents and individual clients alike often come to me with concerns of anxiety, depression, self-regulation, behavioral issues, performance challenges (school, sports, work, etc.), and life transitions, just to name a few. I largely utilize mindfulness-based techniques as it is only with present awareness that we can change our lived experiences.
