Grief Therapists in Fort Lee, NJ

Debbie is proudly part of Tri America Health & Wellness and is offering telemedicine visits in NJ, NY, and FL. Grief is an part of life when we love others. But while most of us experience grief at some point, the pain can feel uniquely ours to handle. And that pain can be the result of so many different things… Like struggling with trauma or addiction in your life or the life of a loved one. Maybe you’ve experienced the loss of a child, parent, friend, or partner. Or maybe you’ve received a difficult diagnosis. No matter what it is, finding ourselves again amidst grief can be difficult—and we often need extra support in doing so.

Are you feeling hopeless, fearful, or locked in despair? My specialty areas include working with core beliefs of "not good enough" shame, rejection, deeply entrenched internalized judgment, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, and alcohol/substance use disorders. I provide more than just talk therapy and integrate a clinical approach grounded in research on neuroscience and psychology. Moreover, I have 20-plus years of providing comprehensive clinical expertise in addition to supervising and training other therapists.

As a seasoned therapist with more than 20 years of experience, I bring a wealth of expertise and insight to my practice. A graduate of Columbia University, I have honed my skills to provide individualized care tailored to each client’s unique needs. My approach is characterized by empathy, intuition, and a touch of humor, creating a supportive environment where clients feel understood and empowered to make positive changes in their lives. I work with individuals, couples and families.

Are you grieving a loss? Or experiencing a life transition. Along the way, life delivers many blows and surprises: the death of someone we hold dear, the end of a relationship, an illness or loss of something precious to us. Even positive change like the birth of new baby or a new job can be stressful. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who over the last 25 years, has counseled people facing issues of loss, trauma, transitional changes and aging in New York City. As a therapist I am a caring witness and compassionate guide to your very individual process.

If you are reading this, you are looking to make changes in your life. The three areas where I can help you make the changes you are looking for, even if you do not yet know the specifics yourself, are changing how you feel, changing specific behaviors, and changing patterns of thought. I like to work quickly and honestly, but I will tailor your therapy to your individual needs. What this means is that you will be given a safe and judgment free space in which to examine and execute the changes that will lead to a happier and more enjoyable life.

I work with people suffering from various mental health conditions: depression, anxiety, panic attacks, mood disorders, or grieving a loss. In my 25 years as a therapist, I have worked with patients from diverse cultural, racial, and socio-economic backgrounds. In the recent years, my focus has been psychotherapy, support and psycho-education for people with acute or chronic medical conditions. The achievements of modern medicine do not replace attention to potentially devastating psychological effects of being sick, yet doctors often overlook or ignore them, leaving us to cope with fear, loneliness, and critical decisions to make.

My motto is that progress is a process when implementing growth. Through exploration of thoughts and feelings, we will build a collaborative avenue for change. I utilize a patient-centered, strengths-based perspective, and trauma-informed lens. Through relationally-oriented psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, we will create a safe space filled with empathy, warmth, and challenge. We will partner together to better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how you will build the tools to navigate both positive and difficult situations.

No one should be alone in their struggles. Helping others to discover peace and fulfillment in their lives, I partner and work with individuals, children/adolescents, couples, and families. I help equip clients with the necessary tools to overcome tough experiences that life can bring including anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, and more. I would be happy to take a collaborative approach and work together with my client to create a tailored treatment plan, and ultimately reach mental, emotional, and relational health.

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist working with adolescents and adults who are experiencing difficult life changes and stages. I practice psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy and work on a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and grief. I obtained my Masters in Clinical Social Work from New York University, with a concentration in Mental Health and Art Therapy. Before I became a Psychotherapist I attended the Moscow Academy of Industrial and Applied Arts, at which I received a Master degree in Fine Arts and Interior Design.

I perceive therapy as a safe and comfortable space allowing you to take a journey of discovery and growth.

Too often individuals & couples self-impose obstacles to their own happiness. Within a warm, caring atmosphere, I endeavor to help rid clients of these roadblocks--to get them unstuck from repetitive, unproductive behaviors and/or relational patterns so that they may move on to richer fuller lives. While nurturing & supportive, I am active & solution focused, concentrating on the present with an understanding of the past.

Many of us face challenging times in our lives, which may lead us to seek out help from others. The experiences of dissatisfaction and feeling unfulfilled may bring varying degrees of pain and sense of emptiness and loss. I provide a supportive and safe space for you to learn more about yourself and create sustainable changes in your life. My style is warm, collaborative, thoughtful, and compassionate - focused on helping you feel more empowered to move successfully through such challenges.

Healing and self-discovery are necessary and ongoing processes of a healthy and thriving person. But what does it look like? How does one begin this journey? Though many of us hope to be well and to thrive in relationships, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Unpacking the traumas of your past and allowing yourself to feel your emotions can be overwhelming! My hope is to provide support and to partner with you as you embark on this journey toward mental health and wholeness.

My name is Christian, and welcome to my practice. Parakaleo is a Koine Greek word that means “to call alongside.” It was a way to describe a counselor – one who walks alongside you to encourage, strength, and comfort. In a digital age when everyone is becoming more connected but alone at the same time, it is hard to discern the competing voices inside your mind and heart. I hope to walk alongside you during this season to help you find that voice inside that you need hear, and unlock its resonance – in your challenges, passions, and relationships.

Although some struggle is an inevitable part of life, there is the danger of accepting continual pain & struggle as "the way life is". This way of thinking can keep a person trapped, unable to even imagine what "better" would look like. Therapy offers a way out. For some, the traumas suffered in the past make it difficult to find happiness. Others may find themselves behaving in ways that leave them feeling worse, or once again in the same hurtful relationships. Some may be consumed with regrets about past mistakes, or filled with fear of the future, missing opportunities to live well in the present.

How can I be the best therapist for you? I'm passionate about supporting you towards your goals be it anxiety and depression, social phobia's, relationship issues or managing ADHD and/or autism. Common goals with my clients are building self confidence, accessing resources, focusing on healthy coping strategies, processing emotions and working through trauma and increasing self-care. I work with kids through adults and focus on meeting your personal goals. You are in the driver's seat and my job is to help you reach your destination.

My style as a psychotherapist is engaging, warm, and reflective, and I place a great emphasis on building trust and connection as the foundation of my clinical work. From there, we can begin to explore difficult and sometimes painful life experiences and understand the emotions beneath it. By paying attention to these experiences and emotional signals, you can better understand yourself, both past and present. I believe, at birth, we are all hard wired for healing and self-repair but we need the support of trusting and caring relationships to access the powerful drive within ourselves to heal, grow, love, and flourish.
