You've Been Meaning to Do This for a While
Why You Kept That Piece of Paper
The paper has been in your wallet since the spring.
A name and a number, written down for you by somebody who loves you.
It went through the wash once. You kept it anyway.
You Already Know What Put It There
Grief that hasn't loosened its grip, a job burning you down to the wick, a year that changed shape without asking you first. Or nothing that dramatic, just the steady work of keeping everything running for everybody else.
Plenty of people come to us doing everything right and still repeating a pattern they can name perfectly and can't budge.
Your Reason Doesn't Have to Hurt
Some come because something has been in the way for years, and they'd like it out of the way. Others want a larger life and can't quite get at it on their own.
And a few come because three different people have now suggested a therapist, and the third suggestion finally got through.
Each of those is a real reason, and it's reason enough.
Say the Part You've Been Editing Out
Individual therapy is one confidential relationship with one therapist whose attention is on you and nobody else. It's where you finally say the thing you've been leaving out of every other conversation.
Then we make sense of it together and start working toward what you want to be different.
How we do that depends entirely on who you turn out to be.
Your Therapy Won't Look Like Anyone Else's
No single approach fits everybody, so we build the work around the person in the room.
That's traditional talk therapy combined with methods that bring your body into it, not just your thinking.
Some weeks, the work is figuring out where a pattern started and who taught it to you. Other weeks, it's whatever walked in with you and is happening between us right this minute.
Change Takes Time, and We Won't Rush You
Twenty years in, we still won't promise you a particular result. Anybody who promises you one is selling something.
What you'll get is steady attention, a straight answer whenever you ask for one, and somebody working next to you who holds you to what you said you wanted.
Sessions run in person at our Cedar Knolls office and online anywhere in New Jersey or New York.
Take the Paper Out of Your Wallet
Your first conversation with us costs nothing and takes about fifteen minutes.
You talk, we listen, and then we tell you honestly whether we're the right people for this.
There's no script for it, and nothing you need to have figured out beforehand.
Put that paper to use and call us at (973) 532-2149.
Make the Rest of the Week Feel Like the Weekend
You already know what's possible, because you've felt it, on a good Saturday or in a quieter moment with yourself. Let's build toward more of that, on more solid ground than you're standing on now.
