Find a Therapist in Monmouth County, New Jersey.

Psychotherapy is an intimate process and can be frightening to some people. You are encouraged to talk about your deepest feelings with another (trained) person who starts out as a complete stranger to you. We will talk about your feelings with you in an accepting, non-judgmental way, although we will also challenge you to look at the impact your feelings and behavior have on others. Over the course of time, you will be able to change your behavior to feel more satisfied with your life.

I provide brief solutions-focused psychotherapy to help clients assess personal and professional functioning, clarify goals, and strengthen social and emotional skills. I specialize in brief online relationship counseling. Online counseling allows clients to seek help as needed, engage in therapy at a schedule that's convenient to them, and keep their counselor as they progress through life. I work with LGBTQ and hetero clients on individual, couple, and alternative relationship concerns. Clients explore issues that impact their professional and personal relationships, including communication, power dynamics, and intimacy. I accept US$ and cryptocurrencies.

In psychotherapy Ms. Tracey helps patients to find the areas in which they are most comfortable in dealing with the world, then to slowly bring in its opposite. This is done by certain questions Ms. Tracey asks which bring in the individual's awareness and insights into the opposite part of the self. Integrating them brings about being in one's true self rather than the rote false self most people are geared for. Therapeutic techniques help you to access your unconscious, hidden side, and deepest feelings and thoughts. Once they are out in the open they can be dealt with. It is much like turning on a light in a dark room.

Beginning therapy does not have to be intimidating. Most people find that they feel a sense of relief immediately after scheduling the first appointment, and feel even better after the first session. It is important, though, that you find a therapist that you feel safe and comfortable with. Clients describe me as warm and approachable, with a positive an practical approach to solving problems. I tend to focus on the positive as much as possible and to build on the natural strengths that we all have.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of therapy that focuses on the connection between your feelings, beliefs and behaviors. Through CBT, I will help you understand how your distorted, unhealthy and/or self-destructive thinking patterns influence how you behavior or respond in certain situations. Once you are able to grasp why you think the way you do and how your thinking affects your behavior, then you can begin to change your mindset so it reflects a healthy, well-adjusted individual.
