Therapists in Springfield, NJ

Life is hard. As children, we often have little to no control over our lives. Things happen that make us feel confused, angry, or scared, and we may or may not get the help we need or even an explanation. Our childhood experiences shape who we are, and many children experience trauma or have some unmet need that follows us into adulthood and makes life even harder than it already is. Being a parent is hard. It takes a village, and I hope to support your child (and you!) through the messiness of being a human.

We all have unique and personal stories inside us. I join with each family member with an understanding of their strengths and challenges; with the belief that even though we cannot change our past we can direct our future.

Together we will focus on finding solutions that work for your life and circumstances; in a safe, supportive and non-judgemental place to explore, comprehend and resolve issues. I embrace the opportunity to co-create with you through the therapeutic process.

I know one of the most important pieces in creating a successful therapeutic and safe space is creating a healthy and understanding relationship with all clients. Therefore, I fully believe in an individualistic approach, as I remain consciously aware that each individual is different and what might work for one will likely not work for all.

Every child has an innate ability to heal and master many of the difficulties they encounter, but at times they need special help to aid them through it.

It's common for our life stories to feel disjointed at times. Experiencing trauma, loss, or shame can make it challenging to integrate these difficult experiences into a coherent narrative. However, within a safe and nurturing relationship, it becomes possible to weave these experiences together and uncover a peaceful, wise, and empowered part of ourselves. My approach is influenced by psychoanalysis, object-relations, existential therapies, and internal family systems. I strive to embody compassion, non-judgment, and curiosity. I look forward to supporting you in your journey of healing.
