Seeking therapy can be daunting and the process to find the right therapist can take time. I strive to provide an empathic and warm environment for my clients and work with culturally sensitive approach in mind. Building the therapeutic relationship is important so I welcome you to book an assessment with me to see if you feel I am the right fit for you. I work from a person centered approach and prefer to spend the first two sessions getting an idea of my client's background, pertinent life experiences and what brought them to therapy. From there I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy and use Solution Focused techniques to help my client work towards their long and short term goals.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a passion for empowering individuals to overcome personal and professional barriers, and lead fulfilling lives. Being an introvert, I can truly understand others who have these traits and can help them identify any limiting beliefs, gain self-awareness, and utilize the benefits of those characteristics. As a therapist who deeply understands the lived experiences of BIPOC women, I help my clients process the impact of generational patterns, societal pressures, and internalized narratives that may be holding them back. I guide women in shifting their mindset, stepping into their confidence, and aligning their lives with their true desires. Late Cancellations When a cancellation is needed for therapy, I request a client does provide notice within 24 hours of the scheduled appointment, the $75 fee will be charged to the client’s account or card on file will be charged and will be asked to pay this balance prior to scheduling the next appointment. No Show Regarding No-Shows, this is where you do not attend a scheduled appointment. You will be charged the full fee of the session which is $150 (regardless of use of insurance). The fee will have to be paid before another session is scheduled. Multiple no shows or lack of communication will result in termination of services. If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, I encourage you to utilize the client portal to cancel or reschedule.

I take the time to get to know my clients and have many clients who have been with me for years. That doesn't mean someone will see me every week for the rest of their life. It means client know I am available when they have need. I do have clients who have seen me weekly for years not because they are dependent on me but because they have found benefit in processing their life regularly. I have had a successful personal practice for years and can offer clients the space and reverence to unpack the most unpleasant things to reorder them in a way they no longer can cause harm as they once did. There is no perfect childhood and it is likely families do the best they can and it may not have filled the needs of their child.

Hi, I am a licensed professional counselor in NJ since 2005 but started in the field in 1992. I have worked with people in a number of different settings as well as with different diagnosis. I've spent a large portion of my career helping with loss and grief and another part helping parents navigate the tween and teen years and how to cope with children who might have a mental health diagnosis or challenge. I only have 7am's in the self scheduling part of this page but have other availability- once you book I'll reach out and we'll see if a different day/time works better!

TaMara brings a wealth of experience in an unconventional way. As a former owner of a home healthcare company, that primarily provided services to the elderly, TaMara found herself assisting families, particularly adult children, who had to make tough healthcare and financial decisions for their parent(s). She helped families establish goals on how best to support their parents in maintaining dignity and independence while simultaneously identifying the next steps in the event of their parents’ passing. While families had to come to terms with the physical, mental, and/or psychological changes seen in their parents, taking on the parental role was quite emotionally challenging for adult children. TaMara supported the entire family in managing these delicate issues.

Life often presents challenges beyond our control, and early experiences can shape our adulthood. My primary goal is to guide clients beyond their pain, empowering them to embrace change. It’s essential to recognize that transformation requires ongoing effort it’s not an overnight process. Rather, it unfolds second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, and day by day.

I pride myself on having a down-to-earth, person-centered approach in each therapy session. I am relatable, and empathetic and take an honest and sensitive approach in the counseling process.
