I have a Masters and Bachelors in Social Work and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey. My experience over the past 20 years has been in a variety of mental health settings. I have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as well as several other modalities. I have worked with individuals with Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar and many other issues. Therapy can be intimidating and opening up to stranger can be difficult, which is why I feel that building trust from the beginning is important. I will take the time to listen, and treat you with respect while at the same time challenge you to help you achieve your goals. I really enjoy helping people and I hope I can help you.

I believe we are meant to thrive. One of my favorite things about counseling is that I get to assist people in coming to the realization of just how capable and amazing they really are. Beginning with the first appointment we work together to explore your needs and abilities. I work hard to provide you with a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental space where your sense of resilience can grow. I use techniques and interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT). I am always looking for ways to improve and grow as a professional and as a person, and I encourage the same drive in my clients. If you would like to schedule an appointment, please contact me. Let's work through things together.

Christine Toler
Hi. My name is Christine Toler, Chris, and I earned my Ed.S and LPC- MHSP in the state of Tennessee, and New Jersey. I have been licensed as a Professional Counselor since 2010, and a School Counselor since 2006. I started being a believer in therapy when it first helped me over forty years ago, (as a child). I thought what a wonderful way to get to the root of the problem... and get rid of it. Since then I have been working on myself as a client as well as a acquiring a license to work with clients including teens, adults and families. I focus on solution based and non-judgmental cognitive therapy. I believe understanding a problem is not the end of the work. The action we take to support a positive change... is what changes lives. And while I have experienced that in some very important areas... I continue to grow... daily. And I choose to be transparent about that because I believe it is important to the work that my clients know I understand how it feels to be in the client chair. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, doubt, guilt, grief, or all of the above, I believe I can help you.

I believe in a person’s ability to develop and grow, become autonomous and authentic. I utilize different techniques and approaches to meet my clients’ need in order to help them find success in therapy. Specifically, I utilize a combination of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Family Dynamics and Person Centered Therapy to create a treatment outline that will best fit my clients’ needs. I have experience working with individuals, couples and families on issues related to addiction, infidelity and trust, self esteem, depression, anxiety, life changes, divorce, identifying goals, grief and loss as well as caregiver stress and elder adult issues and transitions. I graduated from Centenary University in Hackettstown, NJ with a Master’s of Arts in Clinical Counseling. I also received a Master’s of Science in Addictions Counseling from Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, AZ. Through my internships and post graduate work I have been involved with traditional outpatient care as well as higher levels of care such as Intensive Outpatient and Partial Hospitalization. My approach is warm and interactive, I believe in asking thoughtful questions that cause clients to think and look deeper. I also inquire about my clients’ beliefs and background to get a better picture of who they are and what shaped them. It also allows me to be sensitive and respectful of cultural needs and differences. I respond to messages Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9am-5pm. On the weekends I do not respond to messages or hold sessions. Sessions are booked with me once we have agreed to work together. I do not have an open schedule.

Warm greetings! I am licensed in New Jersey with many years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety and coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and evidenced-based treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. We will meet using Betterhelp's virtual platform with audio and video, making our meetings more convenient for you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. Our first session will go over what to expect while working together, going over demographic information (like that at a doctors' office) and answering questions you may have. We will use evidenced based modalities to help identify goals while also taking into account the skills and barriers so we can utilize the best plan possible. That being said, it is important that we remain consistent with appointments. Since the more we put into the process the more we get out. Also, sometimes there are issues and needs you may have that are beyond my scope of expertise, you may need a higher level of care, or you may need paperwork, notes, assessments, or any type of documentation. In those cases, a referral to another provider may be necessary as we want to make sure you get the best care possible and for me to remain compliant and follow the rules of the platform, the state, and my licensing board. In the spirit of openness and transparency, I encourage questions about any policy or procedure so we can effectively achieve the goals you set in our sessions. Thank you again for taking the first step towards achieving your goals
