Therapists in Englewood Cliffs, NJ

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with 30 years of experience, I have a strong background helping clients change harmful patterns, build solid relationships, and achieve happy, fulfilling lives. My formal education consists of a Master's Degree in Marriage & Family Therapy, a Master's Degree in Cross-Cultural Studies, and a Master's of Divinity in Theology. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I use worksheets, handouts, videos, and personality tests to help you develop tools to bring more harmony to your life and relationships. I conduct counseling that is solution-focused, with your specific goals in mind, so you see a difference right away, not months from now. I help you work through issues systematically, so you feel empowered to move forward with confidence. Some of the areas I can help you with are Self esteem, relationship issues, communication skills, setting boundaries, anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, and career decisions. What sets me apart from a lot of other counselors is that my treatment plans attempt to keep clients on a systematic, results-oriented, skills-based approach to change. I have put together a focused, short-term program to help clients achieve their goals quickly, even after 1-2 visits. ​Your personal treatment plan is designed to be results-oriented with the "end in mind", so you feel hopeful, energized, and see changes right away.

From what I've observed personally, therapy is useful to anyone who is human. Why should you talk to a therapist instead of a friend or your mother? The difference is that therapists are expert listeners who do not judge, criticize, or contradict, but who want to hear everything you have to say and how you are feeling. You may want help discussing difficult thoughts and feelings or need guidance on particular issues, or you may not be sure how you feel. The therapy session offers a private, safe place where you can feel free to say everything. And if you have trouble talking, the therapist can help with that too. My mission is to offer that safe space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment or criticism. Taking the first step to seek therapy takes courage. I’m here to support you in that process.
