I work by providing a judgment-free space for my clients and believe that counseling should be tailored to every person’s needs. Every person is different, so it is important to me to hear out clients and help them become the best version of themselves. Because of the wide variety of client needs, I work with all sorts of life's challenges.

CBT Specialists of New Jersey
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience working in a private practice setting. I received my doctorate in clinical psychology from the State University of New York at Albany and completed an APA approved internship at the Medical University of South Carolina. My training emphasized a CBT orientation to treating psychological disorders. After completing my education, I was a member of the doctoral faculty in clinical psychology at Fairleigh Dickinson University for almost 30 years before electing to go into private practice full time in July 2020. My experience working at a university as both a professor and program director, has helped me understand the difficulties that students face. Moreover, it has given me insider knowledge about how students can most effectively navigate the challenges that college poses and effectively advocate for themselves with their course instructors. Recently, a colleague and I formed a CBT-based private practice focused on adolescents, young adults and adults. My areas of specialization include OCD, panic and other anxiety disorders, depression and other mood disorders, substance abuse, and body-focused repetitive behaviors (e.g. hair pulling). I conduct a comprehensive evaluation and provide all the treatment directly. Treatment is tailored to the individual needs of the client, but it typically involves a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I am committed to providing the best treatment available to my clients, which may involve (at their request) a referral for psychiatric consultation, inclusion of family members, and home visits.

Regardless of what you've been through in the past, I believe anyone can benefit from talking to a mental health professional. Collaborating with a counselor can help provide thought provoking insights, allow you to move through problem solving more quickly, and leave you feeling more fulfilled and motivated to reach your desired goals. I offer a non-judgmental standpoint. I feel, it is important to feel heard, validated and supported throughout the counseling process. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and trauma in any age group. I also have had valuable experience in working with individuals, who have experienced any form of domestic violence. The client and clinician relationship is incredibly important. A good fit should be prioritized, in order to reach a deeper level of meaningful change.

Robin Winter
Helping individuals manage stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, and traumatic life experiences are some of my areas of expertise. Adding school pressures, deadlines, work, parenting and other responsibilities on top of that can be very overwhelming. Pain and emotions that we have been running from can start to catch up with us, stress and anxiety can climb to a level we have never experienced, and the relationships that we cherish can become strained. As life evolves we can lose the ability to cope the way we once did. When this happens we often need to adjust, understand the deeper source of our struggle and learn new strategies to manage our thoughts and feelings. With over 15 years experience in the mental health field I have helped many people do just that, learn new strategies and better understand themselves so that they can successfully manage life's ups and downs. If you are reading this and find yourself saying, "that's me", give me a call. You don't how to figure this out alone.

Searching for a therapist is the first brave step you can take, we’ll get started on your journey together. I believe that each experience in therapy is unique. I’m a person-centered therapist who utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused strategies, and mindfulness techniques. I work best with young adults, 18+. I specialize in working with individuals to overcome difficulties with anxiety, low self-esteem, maternal mental health (pre- and postpartum), women's issues, grief/loss, life transitions, and interpersonal relationships. I prioritize making a safe space for my clients, as I understand this is an important first step in empowering clients to overcome their obstacles.
Erica Pardi
Hello! Intrusive and scary thoughts, over-analyzing, mental reviewing of events, repetitive behaviors, and skin-picking. These are all symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety is natural, but when severe, it can be hard to cope with — often getting in the way of things we want in our lives! My passion is to help others begin the journey of working through the anxiety, toward the life they want to have. I make use of a variety of therapeutic modalities, including ERP, ComB, ACT, and I-CBT, but I ultimately hope treatment will be a collaborative process assisting you in identifying steps to reach your goals. I strive to create a safe space in which you feel comfortable to discuss your thoughts and fears. Given that I have my own lived experience with OCD, I feel I can provide a deeper level of understanding for those living with anxiety and OCD. I, too, have been there. I understand how scary and difficult it can be. We can take that first step together.
