Therapists in Piscataway, NJ

I am a cognitive therapist, trained at the Beck Institute of Cognitive Therapy, with over 30 years of experience in individual and couples' therapy. My focus in therapy is to support you in strengthening self-acceptance, gain insight into your feelings and behaviors, improve your relationships, learn new coping skills, achieve valued life goals, and become your own therapists. Clients that I work with praise not only my knowledge and competence but also my warmth and wisdom.

I take the mystery out of therapy by working collaboratively with you. My role then tends to be like a coach or instructor. We set goals together. I do not make decisions for my clients. Rather we look for patterns in thinking, actions, and relationships that cause problems. We examine the positive and negative outcomes that cause people to get stuck in negative emotions. While we look to the past to learn how patterns are shaped, this treatment is present and future focused. It is more important to build on your strengths than to dwell on weaknesses.

For over 30 years I have worked with individuals and their families to assist them in feeling better about themselves and their lives. My specialty includes working with individuals who struggle with depression, past trauma and loss and bereavement. I work with families to hep them to improve their communication and relationship.
