My approach to therapy offers guidance in your journey of rediscovering your unconditional love for yourself and your world. I help you have compassion for challenging feelings by acknowledging how these feelings are separate from our inner spirit and therefore don’t define our self worth. It becomes easier to accept these feelings by also acknowledging that they have a purpose of self protection and therefore come from a place of love. Acceptance of feelings allows us to return to nurturing our bodies through somatic practices and reach a state of joy in the present moment for our blessings. I hope I can reignite the light that is already in you so it can shine brighter for yourself and for your world. My undergraduate degree/masters degree are from Boston College. I have had clients as young as two and as old as 87! I’ve worked with all ages in outpatient. My focus was children/families in partial hospitalization and in-home. I’ve primarily supported those finding challenge with anxiety, sadness and anger. I am passionate how physical health intertwines with mental health. Therefore I nourish my body with plants and move every day! I have found joy as a boxing instructor and runner. I hope to expose myself to more cultures through travel. I studied abroad in Ecuador and participated in service trips to El Salvador, Mississippi, New Orleans, and the Appalachian region. I live a spiritual life with the belief that we and all “things” are connected by a shared energy of love. Some of my blessings include my parents, sister, brother-in-law, and four-year-old nephew. “You'll never find a rainbow if you're looking down.”

I specialize in building relationships and personal growth: I help parents get more cooperation and compliance from their children with less energy so that the can enjoy each other; I help couples beat the odds to stay happily married; I help all kinds of creative people overcome barriers and roadblocks to fully express their artistic vision; and I help diverse individuals and families adjust to the inevitable and often difficult transitions we all face in life. My most successful clients believe that positive change is possible, are hopeful about the future and are ready for change. They understand that true and lasting change comes from within and requires patience and persistence. They value our time together and trust our relationship enough to do the work (even when it gets hard) both in and between sessions. As long as you appreciate creativity, risk-taking and open, honest communication, attend sessions on time, do assigned homework and are willing to honestly describe what is and isn't working, then I want to work with and help you. I am dedicated to helping everyone I work with access and use their creativity to find and add the resources they need to the strengths that they have so that they can achieve their therapeutic goals as quickly as possible. When you're ready for success, then I would be honored to help you find the solutions that work and make the changes that last so that you can live your very own ‘happily ever after’! I began working with and helping people in 1980 as a preschool teacher. In 1981, while volunteering for the Child Abuse Prevention Effort, I found my second calling. From 1982 to 1986, I worked as a counselor at The Bridge (aka, The Therapeutic Center at Fox Chase), a long-term rehab for teenage substance abusers. After obtaining my master's degree in counseling psychology, I served as the primary counselor and coordinator for Cape Counseling Services Family-Adolescent Alcohol Program providing individual, group and family counseling to children, teenagers and families from 1986-1990. As a program manager at Family Service Association between 1990 and 2014, I trained and supervised over 30 in-home counselors working with families in which children were at risk of out-of-home placement (usually due to abusive or neglectful parenting, but often due to teenage non-compliance and acting out behavior), a less intensive in-home parenting education program as well as three juvenile diversion programs. Since then, while building my private practice, I have provided individual, group and family counseling at a short-term rehab for adults with addictive disease, at a for-profit community agency, and in a federally qualified health center. In my various roles as teacher, counselor, coach, program manager and clinical supervisor, I have helped thousands of people change their lives for the better. My vision is of a world full of kind, loving, compassionate people who live and work peacefully together to provide abundance for all. My purpose is to help people learn, grow and make new and better choices to improve their lives and their relationships so that they live as long, healthy, happy, loving, connected and meaningful lives as possible. My mission is to use my "signature strengths" of creativity, optimism and knowledge, and research-tested methods, to encourage and foster the personal, relational and spiritual growth and change needed to make those changes possible.

8 years of experience as a mental health therapist

Hello! By looking into help opportunities, you've taken a big step toward making a life change. The next big step is finding the right person to work with you! I firmly believe anyone who wants to learn and grow, become healthier, or just cope with the day-to-day stressors of life can benefit from working with a well-matched therapist. In addition to being a clinically-trained, doctoral-level psychologist who has worked in a variety of settings (academic, correctional, community/business, and private practice), I'm also a wife, mom, church Worship Leader, and former secondary English teacher. My experiences have exposed me to many of the challenges and struggles life can bring, and it is my strong opinion that the happiest and most successful people are those who recognize when they need help, have the wisdom to look for it in the right places, and can balance the courage and humility it takes to accept it once they find it. Often the best support and advice can be found in trusted family members and/or friends. However, for most of us, challenges and struggles do arise from time to time for which we just need something different. I offer knowledge and skills along with objectivity, insight, and confidentiality to join with clients in their efforts to overcome challenges, find a sense of peace, and thrive. As mentioned above, I have worked with clients in a variety of settings, both outpatient and inpatient. Most of my work has been with adults and adolescents, though I do have some experience with pre-teens. At this time, I'm focusing my professional efforts on working with adults in individual therapy, but I am comfortable working on relationship, family, and/or parenting issues in that context. I've successfully treated clients presenting with a diversity of issues, including emotional and behavioral problems and disorders, personality disorders, relationship difficulties, school and work issues, adjustment difficulties, and addiction-related problems. Meeting my clients where they are with respect, empathy, and compassion is my overarching goal. I have a Christian worldview which is foundational to everything I do, personally and professionally. This worldview undergirds my cognitive-behavioral orientation, and I am comfortable incorporating techniques from other theoretical approaches to help my clients develop, progress, and achieve healthy goals. I have had success and enjoy working with individuals from all walks of life, so if my background and approach sound like they might meet your needs, contact me. * Important Information I am a PsyPact credentialed provider. If you feel I may be a good match for you but your primary residence is not in New Jersey, please check the current PsyPact map at https://psypact.org/mpage/psypactmap to see if your state is participating in the interjurisdicational compact. As of this writing, 39 states have joined, and my credentialing allows me to practice telehealth in all of these states. If your state is a member of the compact, we can proceed. If not, you will have to seek a provider who holds a license to practice in your state of primary residence.

Mental health care is as important as medical care. We don't go to podiatrist for eye issues or cardiologist for dental issues. Therapy is a lot of work and can be overwhelming at times. Sometimes the therapeutic process can be a steady pace, and other times it can feel like a slow crawl. Laughter, cries, and even anger can be a part of this process as well. Commitment starts with showing up, as we partner to take the next step and/or inch forward towards improvement, showing up becomes less difficult and commitment becomes stronger. I can help you identify and reach your goals. I have significantly helped persons struggling to manage mental health symptoms including but not limited, Depression, Bi-polar, Borderline, PTSD, and anxiety. I am a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist (LCAS), Licensed Clinical Social Work (LCSW), and Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS). My therapeutic approach is one where the client is the expert on themselves and I am the skilled clinician working with them towards their goals. I utilize many interventions, specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). When working with those who have Intellectual Disability, I incorporate visual aides and activities. Finding the right therapist to help heal the mind is an important choice. I may be that one for you!

Understanding the type of therapy you'd like to search for is crucial before finding a therapist or psychologist in New Milford. Perhaps you're interested in narrowing your search for a psychotherapist that can offer psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), talk therapy, provide group therapy, marriage and family therapy for individuals or couples, or couples therapy. Each type of therapy can offer various benefits and address or treat different disorders. If you're still unsure or are new to counseling in New Milford, feel free to contact the provider via email to find out which methods they practice.

It is also important to understand that mental health professionals in the United States are accredited to provide care, helping individuals and couples, with a variety of licenses.

Regardless of their licensure, they are trained to treat individuals and couples counseling, and sometimes children, in any type of therapy in the New Milford region and in the state of New Jersey. Find a therapist under any of these distinctions and know that the sessions they offer can provide a safe place to heal.

A mental health counselor working through their own in-person therapy practice in New Milford or online may assist clients in improving healthy relationships, communication skills, working through life transitions, couples counseling, managing a mood disorder, improving coping skills, self help tips, offer life coaching, family therapy, or change in negative thinking patterns.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the New Milford area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed New Milford therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in New Milford due to a higher cost of living. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in New Milford may not take health insurance, some in the state of New Jersey may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of New Jersey you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks). If you're looking for a therapist, Cincinnati offers a variety of professionals who can help with your mental health needs at a price you can afford.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in New Milford?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a New Milford therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

New Milford therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of New Milford therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A New Milford therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in NJ, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours. If you're searching to find a a nearby psychotherapist close to 07646 or the surrounding zip codes, consider others available through the BetterHelp site.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a New Milford counselor?

Before seeing your New Milford therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in New Milford.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A New Milford licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a New Milford counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in New Milford, New Jersey can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
