Therapists in 06002

I have had the privilege of working with adults, young adults, and older adolescents, both on an inpatient and outpatient basis. I have been in private practice for 28 years and work with clients who present with the full spectrum of mood disorders, such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. Many clients also struggle with relational issues, chronic health problems, stress and wanting to make major life changes.

Are you a new mom feeling like you're having a hard time adjusting to pregnancy or the thought of motherhood? Are you having difficulties finding balance while also feeling like you're enjoying being a mom? Maybe you're finding yourself struggling with finding happiness in the relationships around you? Many women struggle in silence for fear of being shamed or made to feel guilty for their difficulties. You are not alone; I can help. Through specialized training, we will work together to improve your ability to feel well again, find joy in your relationships, and to manage the ups and downs of motherhood.

I enjoy helping people do their deeper therapeutic work. I've been in practice for over 25 years, and it continues to feel like a privilege to play the role I do in people’s lives. By day, I support adolescents managing acute crises in my role as a high school Crisis Clinician. By night, I turn my attention to adults, who have moved beyond a period of acute crisis and reached a point of stabilization. Many people live their lives with the effects of trauma, and often feel stuck when they try to make powerful transitions or internalize positive changes. This is the area of support I am passionate about.

Hello and Welcome, My purpose is to serve you and support positive change. Young adults, children, elderly, and couples whom are challenging depression, anxiety, and in need of mentor coaching; you are in a safe space. I believe in a strength based approach with your therapy sessions anchored to your needs and your experiences.

Accepting new clients. Welcome! I am Thelma Gilbert, a licensed, ordained minister and CEO of Hope for Today Counseling Ministry. I am a trained experienced Christian Counselor and am honored to be able to help you and your loved ones with your counseling needs. Many people, including Christians, become confused and troubled with life problems. We may face the loss of a job, divorce, financial problems, foreclosures, loss of identity, and being spiritually stripped... all of which may cause emotional, physical, and psychological distress. You deserve to be Whole again. Sessions are provided by Telehealth.

Adults are facing unique challenges as they navigate today’s world. Whether they are trying to manage the stress of changes at work and home, parenting in an ever-changing society, or trying to adjust to identity changes during midlife, people are realizing that support helps. Many people - especially men - have begun discovering that the education and skill-building that comes from therapeutic support is helpful; others are considering therapy for the first time. I've worked as a therapist for over 30 years. Wherever you are in your thinking, I am here to help you decide whether therapy is something you want to explore.

Do the logistics of getting the therapy appointments stop you from prioritizing your mental health? Picture a life where therapy seamlessly unfolds within the walls of your own home, eliminating the hurdles of travel, scheduling, and the pixelated void of online sessions. For busy professionals or parents caught in the whirlwind of modern life, especially moms juggling childcare, F.I.T.H. is the answer. No longer is accessing mental health services a logistical puzzle; instead, it's a commitment to prioritize your well-being in a way that is distinctly yours.

Just when we feel our lives are in alignment with our desires, life disturbances happen, and the impact can leave us feeling as if everything we have worked for is now unraveling. The feelings of failure, shame, and guilt can easily creep up in take over any successes we have accomplished. We sometimes struggle to find our footing after. Let us help you get back to a place of self-fulfillment.

I have always gained great satisfaction from helping people feel happier and in learning more effective ways to achieve more fulfilling lives. Those clients who are eager and open to learning more about themselves in order to achieve these goals benefit most from my approach as a therapist. I often focus, therefore, on insight, meaning, and symbols (including dream interpretation)in order to help clients establish a more positive and accepting perspective of themselves and others. In therapy, I work with obstacles against achieving these goals that include anxiety, depression, addictions, anger, and interpersonal and relationship issues.

Throughout life, we encounter situations that we may not always be able to control. What we can control, however, is how we choose to feel and react. Those choices are more powerful than ever! At Power of Choices, we will work together to build and sustain growth in every aspect of our lives. We will use your strengths to empower you and work through what may feel like an uncomfortable place to live. The first step is making the choice to invest in ourselves!

Let's talk. Life can become overwhelming, leading to symptoms of anxiety and depression. Panic attacks? Sleepless nights? Withdrawing from family and friends? Increased agitation? Often these symptoms negatively impact our ability to function well and can interfere with our relationships and the carrying out of the activities of daily living. There are many options and resources available to assist you in reclaiming your life, improving your relationships and creating a more satisfying and fulfilling existence overall. I am here to work with you, to support and challenge you, in a safe and nurturing environment. Let's get started!

At some point, we all face life challenges and could benefit from additional supports. Life challenges can sometimes be unpredictable and derive from a multitude of situations and experiences. Sometimes the challenges are that of our own, other times we battle challenges presented to us by those that we love and care for. No matter the situation, I am here to help you navigate through them.

Congratulations for seeking help!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am here to guide those in need, advocate for the vulnerable and help people through adverse life experiences.

Hello there. I help my clients by offering them an accepting and empathic place to talk about their lives. Depending on the needs of the individual, I may simply listen and follow, or I may be more directive and action-oriented, offering concrete tools that bring about symptom relief. I focus on behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and relationships, and we explore, together, what brings happiness. I ask my clients to be open, honest, and patient with themselves through this process, and I offer them support as we work toward relief. Hopefully my approach offers what you're looking for.

Have you been conditioned to be quiet, to second-guess yourself, to feel hopeless, disempowered, or powerless? If you identify as a female, you've landed on the right profile for beginning your journey towards empowerment, healing, growth, and unveiling your true authentic self. Whether you are trying to conceive, endured a pregnancy loss, stillbirth or termination, have one or ten children, are a step-mother, going through fertility treatments, are a single mother, adopting, or not driving down this road at all and do not relate to childbearing, I would be honored to work with you. Empowering women is a hallmark in my practice.

Life has many unexpected twists and turns. Although you are doing okay, you recognize that being just “okay” is not good enough anymore. Maybe you are suffering from some childhood wounds that need to be unpacked. Perhaps, you have experienced a bad break up, a recent divorce, job related stress, or anxiety caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Are you a teenager who feels no one understands you, a young adult trying to figure out your next steps in life, a parent in need of some extra support, or a couple at a crossroads in your relationship? Do you want to become the best version of yourself?

Are you challenged by the complexities of life? Do you feel like you don't matter? Overwhelmed? Have you felt like giving up? You are not alone. So many others have been in the same place. I want you to know, you do matter, and I am here to listen.

Therapy is for you to become resilient, increase well-being and begin healing. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and interactive. I have a range of experience and training in treating anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, work-related stress, and injury. I specialize in grief, pre/post-marital/relationships, parenting, and family conflict. I work with realistic goals and treatment plans that are client/family-centered.

Thank you for visiting my profile. I have over 25 years of experience in providing therapy and counseling services to adults, adolescents and families. In addition to my clinical experiences in private practice, I have conducted individual, group and family therapy to individuals with depression, anxiety, complex trauma and chronic health conditions. In recent years, I have been focusing on the impact of trauma, losses, life transitions, and providing guidance and coping skills for when life feels too overwhelming to manage. I hold the belief that everyone wants to be the best version of themselves.
