Therapists in New Jersey

I have been a psychotherapist for over 18 years and I have worked with all walks of life. I have developed programs for the elderly, young children, individuals who struggle with substance issues, sexually abused adults and children and people whom have struggled with various types of trauma. Regardless of the issue all my clients require and deserve validation and unconditional care. I am very passionate with regard to finding creative ways to help people gain the confidence needed to help themselves. My motto for life is that life is not just surviving but thriving. I have received multiple awards for humanistic beliefs and practice. My educational years were all met with high honors and scholarships. I was appointed the first ever health systems specialist designation for my work with nursing homes at the New York State Department of health as a quality of life was to me of the highest importance. I work with physical coaching, nature mindfulness training and positive affirmations for my own self-care and I share these techniques with my clients. I come from a strengths perspective and I believe in the power of self-love. No one therapeutic model works for everyone as we are all unique. I listen and collaborate with my clients in order to help them achieve their highest self. I work with reading and writing tools and I know that behavior change, although challenging, will lead to positive changes in the mind, body and soul. What life throws at us does not define us it is what we do to overcome that creates our greatest achievements. Breathingmindtherapy.com Empath's_essentials "How an Empath Becomes A Hero" Amazon.com

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to review my profile! My name is Adriana and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of New Jersey. I have twenty years of experience in the field, starting right after I graduated from the University of Miami with my MS.Ed in Mental Health Counseling. I grew up in New Jersey, did my undergraduate studies at Albright College in Reading, PA, earning my BA in Psychology and Sociology. My experience began working with folks with severe and chronic mental health issues, and have been able to work with them, along with other populations since that time. Over the last almost seventeen years, I have been part of the senior management team of behavioral health agencies, one in Miami Beach and one which is a State wide one in New Jersey and I have had the privilege to work with many different people and specialties such as anxiety, compassion fatigue, esteem issues, life transitions, depression, suicide prevention, trauma, multicultural issues, severe and chronic mental health, co-occurring (behavioral health and addiction disorders), faith based, gender & sexuality identity and homeless. I believe that the core of any effective therapy begins with a therapeutic alliance. Good relationships foster trust and openness, thus, while I may use different styles of therapy, there will always be some good, old fashioned person centered values in there. Styles that we may use include psychodynamics, cognitive behavioral and mindfulness. In reality, it will be a combination of what will work best for each individual. My main goal is to help you feel comfortable, explore some issues, process and work through them in the manner that is most suited for you. I have been able to work with people from various ethnicities, races, education, religions and socioeconomic backgrounds. I have a Christian/Roman Catholic background and can incorporate that into our work together, if you so choose. I look forward to possibly working together!

I am a licensed professional counselor with 30 years experience . I have a strong background with client who suffer with depression, anxiety and relationship conflicts. My therapeutic approach uses both solution focus treatment and relationship modeling. This can help me teach clients coping skills to help manage overwhelming feelings as well as help clients understand through the therapeutic relationship the role they play in their own significant relationships with others and themselves. I am a strong advocate for clients to participate in their treatment and believe the therapeutic relationship to be an alliance between myself and my client. This relationship teaches me as much about myself as it does about my client. I appreciate both the responsibility and the joy of seeing clients grow and change. I am looking forward to working with BetterHelp and starting this new chapter in my professional life.
