Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor available for teletherapy in New Jersey. I first began working in this field 17 years ago and have been practicing for almost 10 years. I've worked with people with many different concerns, with anxiety and depression being by far the most common. I usually work with adults with some experience with adolescents. I intentionally keep sessions relaxed, casual, and comfortable. I don't usually assign "homework" between sessions, but I can if you would like. Otherwise, treatment is highly individualized and personal with a focus on progress and reaching your goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session, through conversation explore the reason for coming to therapy, whether it is an immediate problem or an issue you've had for years, and begin by discussing the problem and providing details along the way, or starting "at the beginning" and working through the client's life story. Once the issue is identified, goals can begin to be formulated.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths are being completely non-judgemental, regardless of how shocking the revelation may seem, and treating the client with deep empathy and respect, all while incorporating a touch of humor.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
This method allows each client's needs to be addressed in the most beneficial manner possible. This method incorporates ideas and techniques from several other methods, applying them appropriately to the client.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
This is a well-known, "gold standard" approach that has been demonstrated to be effective for many people facing many issues. It is one of the most commonly used "go-to" methods.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
A useful approach that many find helpful, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) has been incorporated into many different disciplines recently. This can be particularly helpful for those with anxiety.
