People decide to enter therapy for a variety of reasons. If you’re feeling “stuck”, need someone to talk to without feeling judged, or just need help managing life. You may already have family or community support systems, but still feel like you have nobody to turn to. If you can relate to these feelings, it’s okay to seek help from a therapist. My name is Nicole Taylor, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey, with over 15 years of experience. I am a Christian, and take a holistic approach to therapy, which includes incorporating the client’s religious/ spiritual beliefs. Clients often express feeling empowered from learning to incorporate their own spiritual beliefs. I have extensive experience providing individual, group, and family therapy in a variety of settings.

35 years offering treatment
I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 30 years, working mostly in New York and New Jersey. My specialty practice is working with adults 18yrs and older coping with Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, and ADHD. Sometimes individuals have had traumatic experiences from early childhood or adulthood that impact coping with daily living. I provide psychotherapy for individuals who have had traumatic experiences that are impacting their relationships, managing emotional moods swings, or misusing drugs and alcohol. At this time I am not working with minors for individual Telehealth Services, however, I can provide parenting skills strategies for parents seeking guidance for the management of behavioral issues impacting the parent / child relationship. My therapeutic approach is solution focused and client centered, with compassion and respect for the client. I believe that each person is the expert of their own experiences and future goals, so I take a collaborative and non-judgmental approach, being open to feedback. Through out my years of experience and training I have developed an eclectic "tool box" of interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Treatment, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, and Psycho-dynamic psychotherapy treatments. I understand that the first most important step is finding a therapist that instills a sense of confidence, trust, and warm regard. I look forward to talking with you and to answer any questions you may have about my approach to see if we are a good fit. Thank you.

My name is Jennifer Maguire and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey where I was born and raised. I have 23 years of experience in the counseling field with a Bachelor's degree from Rutgers University and two Master's degrees from Rowan University and the University of Phoenix. My counseling style is interactive, empathetic, and warm. It is my belief that listening is the key to success in a therapeutic relationship and every client that I have the opportunity to serve will feel heard and treated with dignity, respect and compassion. My approach to therapy is client centered as clients are the experts on their lives and determine the direction and depth of therapy. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I draw on multiple treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing personalized treatment plans that accomplish their goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Supportive Therapies, and Problem Solving Strategies, I assist clients in exploring relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to aid in discovering dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive behaviors and beliefs. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I support clients through developing skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation with the goal of moving clients towards a life involving the capacity for experiencing joy and freedom. It is my goal to understand your concerns and assist in your journey towards better emotional and mental health. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
