Female Therapists in Pennington, NJ

As we work together, my goal is to help you strengthen your self-awareness and self-esteem so that you can feel confident discerning the type of person you want to evolve into and make decisions that align with who you are at your core.

My clients learn to skillfully and creatively solve their relational problems of loveless ness, toxicity, and co-dependency to gain the peace and love they need in their lives. I teach clients to be resourceful and open their perspective about the difficulties in their lives to acceptance. This opens our work to the possibility of new channels of personal empathy and self-compassion. Clients learn to deal with challenging, ingrained anxieties and stubborn habitual patterns of behavior, emotion, and beliefs about themselves and others. We build new maps of meaning that enable clients to experience confidence and freedom.

Hello! As a goal-directed professional, my primary objective is to come to understand my clients in context, to identify influences that contribute to both stress and success, and help them generate strategies to move forward in their lives. For the past 16 years, I have had the pleasure of working with children, adolescents, and their families to help better understand how to reduce stress, how to do better in school, and ultimately, how to be happier.

I have over 20 years of experience helping adolescents, adults, and couples navigate difficult times, confusing and debilitating feelings, and complicated relationships. My treatment approach starts with the client--with the belief that everyone is exquisitely unique--and therefore therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I believe that being genuine with clients is essential; in my office you will find a healing conversation, not talking to a stone wall.

My strength-based approach to therapy and evaluations combines comprehensive assessment with evidenced-based interventions, and actionable recommendations. I offer individual and group therapy for children and adolescents, and individual therapy for adults.

I've been a Nutrition Therapist in private practice for over 15 years and in 2014 completed a second Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy to better serve my clients' emotional and relational needs. Recognizing there is a problem is the first step; my role is to help individuals, couples, and families make the changes that will enable growth, functioning, and a better quality of life.

As a therapist with over 15 years of experience, I am honored to work with individuals each day that are open to create change and make choices that allow opportunities for growth. My approach to therapy begins with meeting you where you are at, while creating a safe, supported, strengths focused, and non-judgmental space to work on identifying opportunities and barriers. Together, we can work on your identified goals while you become empowered by your healthy changes and recognizing your resilience. I am available for day or evening appointments to best accommodate your schedule.

My practice offers caring and knowledgeable support. It takes courage to pursue therapy, so I provide a warm and non-judgmental environment in which effective therapy can take place. Areas of specialty include anxiety, depression, postpartum depression, grief and loss, life transitions and relationship issues. In my practice I help you to consider and honor your whole self : mind, body emotions and spirit. Different approaches are called for at different times in life. Sometimes you just need extra support and coping strategies to get through a rough time, or sometimes going deeper to gain insight will transform old patterns.

Painful relationship issues and lifestyle struggles can interfere with all aspects of life.

Worried moms & frazzled dads, look no further! Maybe your child is anxious, sad, angry, or acting out. You've tried empathy, rewards, punishments, extra attention, special privileges. You've read books, consulted parenting blogs, & asked other parents for advice. Whatever you try, it may even work for a few days but then all the old problems come right back. Maybe your boy wants to dress like a girl and it's freaking you out. Maybe your teen declares "I'm queer"--what does that even mean? Let's add the stress of the pandemic and you're exhausted, frustrated, and worried about your child's future.

Hello & welcome! Taking the first step to contact someone for therapy can be so difficult. Whether you're facing a new stressor, dealing with a long-term struggle, have been in therapy for years, or have never tried counseling before, the idea of talking with someone new can be daunting. You want someone knowledgeable, supportive, and non-judgmental. Whatever your current situation, I would be honored to support you in your journey and to provide a warm, collaborative, safe space for you to work toward achieving your goals.

First and foremost, I want my clients to feel comfortable in their own skin. My goal is to provide my clients with a safe and supportive space, free of judgment. I'm passionate about my practice and have put my heart and soul into it. I have over 30 years of experience working with individuals and couples struggling with a wide variety of issues. I enjoy working with couples, often to help them first determine if this is the right relationship for them - and if it is, we can explore ways to heal and strengthen it.

Do you feel confused in your current situation, have unhealthy patterns of behavior, or troubled relationships? The first step of successful therapy begins with a genuine, respectful and empathetic connection between therapist and client. I am warm and personable, and strive to create a safe, supportive environment with each person. We will work together to create an individualized treatment plan in order to help you acquire healthier coping skills, develop increased self-awareness, and improve your overall mental health and well-being.

Finally deciding to seek out therapy can feel overwhelming and at times, even increase uncomfortable feelings. Finding the "right fit" with a therapist means taking emotional risks to get the support you deserve. I work to help women regain or perhaps discover for the first time, a sense of inner peace. My practice incorporates holistic, somatic & integrative approaches addressing a wide range of mental health challenges with a focus on trauma recovery. I believe "theory" is invaluable, however, experience and research shows that successful therapy is closely connected to the relationship that develops between therapist and client.

I specialize in empowering individuals who are trapped in people pleasing behaviors to break free from self doubt and overthinking, fostering self confidence and assertiveness for a more authentic and fulfilling life. I help clients connect deeply with their core values, guiding them through a journey of self discovery and alignment.

Growing up isn't easy. In my practice, I focus on teenagers and young adults who need support as they navigate life's stressors.
