Behavioral Issues Therapists in Lebanon, NJ

Despite having reached the pinnacle of my profession after nearly two decades of practice, it was my own struggle with learning disabilities, dual diagnosis and other medical conditions and issues, that changed my perspective and my life. I came to appreciate an approach which focuses on the here and now; solution focused and goal oriented. I found little solace in traditional therapeutic approaches which focused largely on the past, and went on for months with no real relief nor positive impact on my life or functioning. As such, I strive to help my clients achieve their goals and actualize their dreams using a coaching approach.

I am sensitive and empathetic and value the professional relationship I can build with clients.

Choosing a therapist can be a daunting task. I work toward providing an atmosphere of respect, support, trust and caring which can lead to a greater potential for self understanding, healing, relief and the opportunity to see and make different choices. In private practice for over 20 years, I have a varied practice, working with individuals, couples and families with a wide range of difficulties. Areas of particular specialty include working with those who have experienced trauma, relational difficulties, anxiey, depression, and issues of childhood and adolescence.

A person may enter therapy when they feel they can no longer effectively manage aspects of their life. Although it can be difficult to ask for help, this is where therapy begins. Once committed to this idea, choosing the right therapist is the next step. Finding a good therapeutic match is crucial to solving one’s problems.
