Your Top Rated Family Therapist In Clifton, New Jersey. 

Grow Together As A Family With Love & Compassion! 

Family relationships are dynamic and unique. You can have a safe space for healing, understanding, and building stronger bonds as a family. As a Licensed Family Therapist in NJ, I help families communicate effectively, work through conflicts, rebuild and strengthen relationships. 

With Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I strive to create a supportive environment that allows for increased trust and cooperation within the family system. Family members can open up and convey their emotions, thoughts, and experiences related to any distress, including anxiety, tension, or resentment they might have. 

For couples who seek to reduce or eliminate stress in relationships, tension, lack of communication or connection, mistrust and distance, I provide couples therapy tailored to your specific needs. You can experience a positive change in your family dynamics. 

For a healthier and happier family life, reach out to me for a consultation session tailored to your unique needs.

Is Family Therapy Effective?

Family therapy is crucial for identifying communication problems, dysfunctional patterns and power imbalances, within the family system as it affects the well-being of each family member and the functioning of the entire family unit.

Families are complex systems of relationships where parents, children, and siblings, face a variety of challenges which include anxiety, depression, and stress. Substance abuse, sexual abuse, and trauma are addressed through family therapy, promoting healing and understanding.

Teenage crises, parent-child conflicts, and discipline problems are common issues tackled in family therapy sessions. Challenges such as older adult issues, sibling rivalry, and relationship difficulties are approached with a focus on fostering healthier dynamics.

Special needs children and the complexities of divorce or children leaving home are areas where family therapy provides valuable support. Parental adjustment, coping, and assistance, along with addressing cross-cultural issues, are addressed in therapy sessions.

Family therapists also navigate the peculiarities of single parenting, blended families, and the delicate aspects of death, grief, and loss. By addressing these challenges, family therapy contributes to building stronger, more resilient family units.

What Is The Benefit Of Family Therapy?

Whether addressing small issues or relationship-breaking challenges, family therapy helps each person feel valued and connected to the family unit.

The family therapy sessions support coping with changes like divorce, blending families, children leaving home, or death. Through family counseling, I strive to provide a non-judgmental, supportive environment to meet your family’s needs. It is an empowering process that fosters confidence, openness, and respect. 

Together, we can improve your family relationships by encouraging honest, empathetic communication. My family-friendly strategies aid hearing, healing, and clarity. Once family members feel heard, seen, and validated, frustrations often ease or disappear. 

Through healthy communication problems become manageable. Validation and openness increase, which fosters calmer, happier relationships and a healthy way forward.

You, & Each Member Of Your Family Members, Could Feel Validated, Heard, & Better Understood.

You can improve your relationships, create authentic communication and respect to begin to heal past or current emotional wounds.
