I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My goal as a therapist is to help you achieve your goals and assist you in resolving or overcoming any challenges you may be facing. I have a no nonsense, solutions focused approach to therapy- the goal is not to have you in therapy forever, but rather to tackle the problem and then go out and live your best life. Deciding to seek help can be really challenging, so congratulations on taking that step! Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey, but keep in mind therapy requires that YOU need to put in the work! I’ll be there to listen to you, and to really challenge you. Of course I will support you along the way. In our first session you will have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. I will share my approach to therapy and how I may be able to assist you. From there, if you chose to work with me, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
The Behavioral Care Center of New Jersey has extensive experience working with people with a variety of psychological needs. We offer individual, group, family, and collateral therapy primarily through a CBT, DBT, and ACT framework. We believe that each person is unique and requires an individualized and collaborative approach to his or her treatment. At the same time, we feel that it is very important to provide you with treatment that has been thoroughly researched to ensure that we are using treatments that have been shown to be helpful with other people who are suffering with similar problems. Therapy provides an opportunity to learn more about yourself and to learn how to continue moving your life in a valued direction when you are feeling stuck.

We sought out a space in the community where we could offer the services we are trained to provide. From the windows of our offices, you can see a blossoming cherry tree. We adopted this tree as a symbol of our work because it reminds us of the ways that being open to change leads to resilience. ompassionate and thoughtful individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, and group therapy. We each have unique skills and and experience. We love what we do, and we do it with passion.
With over a decade of experience in behavioral health, crisis intervention, and psychiatric and medical social work, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to the therapy process. My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and always rooted in respect for you and your own unique experiences. I work with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, burnout, self-esteem issues, substance use concerns, and women's issues. I also enjoy working with other healthcare professionals and caregivers; people who spend so much of their time caring for others, that they forget how to care for themselves. Clients often tell me they appreciate having a therapist who is warm, approachable, and easy to talk to- all while helping to move beyond insight into meaningful action.
Hello! My name is Nicole Wong (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York’s Hudson Valley. I specialize in helping adults heal from trauma, overcome anxiety, and relinquish their self-doubt. Your voice deserves to be heard and listened to. I would so appreciate the opportunity to engage in this therapeutic process with you. In my work, I provide trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered therapy to my clients, while integrating an empathic, intersectional, and holistic approach. My practice is grounded in allowing my clients to explore all aspects of their identities while working through their life experiences. It is important to me that you are in control of your therapeutic process and that our work together is collaborative in its approach and catered to meet your needs and goals. Prior to my transition to being a therapist, I worked for nine years in trauma and anti-violence, university administration, and nonprofit management. For most of my professional career, I have helped individuals heal from trauma and loss and advocated for survivors in their communities. My foundations in trauma-informed approaches and advocacy remain a strong tenet of my work with clients today. I earned my Masters of Science degree in Social Work at Columbia University in Advanced Clinical Practice with a focus on Health, Mental Health, and Disabilities. Previously, I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and English from Vassar College.
I have clinical experience at a large university counseling center in New York, and my time there made me realize how much I like working with college students of all kinds.

I emphasize an integrative, eclectic approach to healing and wellness that includes psychodynamic psychotherapy and mind/body awareness. I'll help you explore feelings, sensations, and past experiences, making sense of what we discover and creating the changes necessary for a more vibrant life.
Life can feel overwhelming and confusing when we are met with expectations that do not align with our authentic self. I believe positive and effective change can happen once we become more confident and empowered within ourselves. I work with individuals to feel confident to make effective change within their life in order meet their personal and therapeutic goals. I primarily work individuals with disrupted attachments related to childhood trauma, and sexual trauma; in addition to PTSD, depression, anxiety, and OCD (specifically related to Relationships, Contamination, Perfectionism, and Health).
Hi! My name is Samantha Fontana, a licensed mental health counselor at Spotless Mind Mental Health Counseling. I collaboratively work with young adults and adults to improve their mental health by utilizing an integrated and evidence-based treatment approach. Psychodynamic talk therapy, CBT, DBT, ERP, and psychoeducation are just a few of the treatment approaches that I incorporate, as I believe therapy should be individualized for you. You may feel stuck sometimes, have trouble understanding your emotions, or need some help sorting out your thoughts, but the good news is you do not have to do it alone. Mental health affects every part of your life, and I am here to provide a safe, empathetic, and judgement-free space to explore and express what you are experiencing. It is important to talk about your feelings and experiences, and by examining them together, we can address any concerns regarding anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or negative thoughts, to name a few. We can then work on building coping skills to help you deal with life’s stressors. I look forward to helping guide you along your journey to a happier and healthier mental well-being.
I believe the most important foundation in therapy is the relationship between therapist and client. The therapy relationship can be a safe place to practice new skills that you are hoping to bring back to the rest of your life. My goal is to help you to feel safe during your time with me, so that you can explore yourself, your challenges, your strengths, your history, and anything else that is important to you. I also hope to help you make the changes that you would like to make in your life. Maybe you can feel better than you do now. Maybe you can learn more skills to cope with what feels hard. Maybe you need to be heard and validated. Whatever brings you to therapy, I’m here for it.
I’m a licensed psychologist and have worked with college-age young adults for many years. I have a youthful energy and I believe in being a good and supportive listener. I utilize evidence-based cognitive-behavioral and acceptance and commitment therapy interventions to help young adults create and apply effective action plans in their life. I’m not interested in helping young adults merely admire their problems, is this usually results in remaining stuck. Instead, I work collaboratively to identify promising interventions to move our life forward towards desired goals. This, I find, is the only way for a person to build genuine confidence.
Do you find yourself stressed and overwhelmed with ruminating thoughts, no matter what you do? You’re a perfectionist who’s always striving to be perfect, saying ‘yes’ to everyone but yourself. The self-criticism never seems to stop, and the fear of failing keeps you stuck. Maybe you don’t even remember a time when things felt different—but you do know one thing: you’re ready for relief. You’re ready to quiet the self-doubt and take back control of your thoughts. You want to understand yourself on a deeper level, find joy in the present, and start living life for you—not just for others. Let’s work together to make that happen. I help clients build self-compassion, confidence, and lasting change. If you're struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, or feeling stuck, we’ll work together to strengthen your coping skills and deepen your self-understanding. I’ll show up as a real person—supportive, honest, and ready to challenge you when needed—because your growth truly matters. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I see how exhausting it is to battle self-doubt and anxiety every day. Together, we can create a path toward relief, confidence, and joy.

I get that college can be a big life transition and overwhelming at times. I specialize in anxiety and stress and help students who feel stuck in worry, overthinking, panic, or burnout. I can also help with the challenge of new relationships in college and managing old ones as well. I use and teach practical and energetic tools for nervous system regulation so you're not just talking about your stress - you're learning how to manage it in real time. My style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. College is also a time when questions about sexual orientation and gender identity often become more present. I offer an affirming, supportive space to explore whatever is coming up for you - at your own pace. You don't have to navigate transition alone.
