Find a Therapist near Bedminster, NJ

My approach in therapy is collaborative, supportive, and goal oriented.

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Chery, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have a master’s degree in social work from the University of New England. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, addiction, relationship concerns, and other life experiences. I believe that each person has a story that has shaped what they are currently experiencing. Through my work, I strive to foster a safe space where clients can tell their stories, gain insight into how their experiences have affected them, and create a new reality that is more fulfilling. I purposefully incorporate multicultural concepts into each case because I feel culture greatly influences how we interact with those around us and can help us define our strengths. I truly believe that therapy is for everyone, but not every therapist is right for every client. Therefore, I encourage open communication about the therapy process so clients can best overcome their obstacles. I utilize various therapeutic approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing. I have been providing psychotherapy for over six years in a variety of settings.

I have been working with individuals and families since 1998. The majority of my work has been with adolescents and adults who struggle with a variety of psychiatric, emotional and behavioral issues in individual and group settings. My specialties include Trauma, Anxiety, Mood Disorders (Depression, Bipolar), Addiction, Anger Management, Borderline Personality Disorder and Parenting. My approach to therapy draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I an enthusiastic believer in the ability of people to fully heal from eating disorder, OCD, and anxiety disorders. Are you tired of fighting with your own mind? Is your relationship with food, body image, and self-esteem starting to run your life? Are you exhausted at the thought of having to make one more scary decision all by yourself? If you said "yes" to any of these questions, I want you to know that there is hope and that you can build a better life. My name is Joe Sciarretta and since 2010 I have been helping people with eating disorders, OCD, and anxiety cope with and overcome their painful patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. I am an avidly optimistic therapist for my clients and I believe that anyone, really anyone, can change. I have worked at some of the top eating disorder and mental health treatment centers in the surrounding NJ area. From those experiences I have developed a good clinical intuition on how to help people who are highly motivated, somewhat unsure, or fearful of change. My practice focuses on a few key therapeutic approaches. I draw heavily on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapies (CBT) and Exposure Therapies, like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. I am an avid proponent of the 8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder book by Carolyn Costin and Gwen Grabb. I also provide Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD and trauma issues, especially when the coincide with an eating disorder. My real specialty is in helping people who are unsure of what they want out of recovery. Oftentimes change can be scary, and recovery itself can be challenging (especially at the start). This is why I focus on working with someone 'where they are at'. If you want to know more, please reach out to my office and have a conversation. I offer free phone consultations and no commitment therapy trials. Start your journey towards feeling better today.

You are worth it! I am a licensed therapist who treats adolescents and adults. I specialize in depression, anxiety, OCD, personality disorders, and mood disorders. Over the years, I have helped hundreds of teens, adults, and families work to address the root causes of issues, resulting in healing and growth. My style is compassionate and person-centered. Some of my therapy modalities include CBT, DBT, exposure, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, meditation techniques, and addiction issues, to include relapse prevention. If you struggle with self-esteem, thinking patterns, negative beliefs about yourself, rumination, compulsions, sadness, reactivity, self-esteem, relationships, anxieties, and fears, or simply loss of control in your life, please reach out.

I subscribe to a holistic approach when it comes to therapy. By that I mean that I'm interested in understanding you as a complete person, rather than just a collection of symptoms or problems. I'm not interested in gathering information to support a specific diagnosis. Instead, I want to hear your story, so I can see life through your eyes and gain a better understanding of what makes you tick (as well as what might be ticking you off at the moment). Once we identify those factors, we'll have a better grasp on how to get you to a better place mentally and emotionally.

My ideal client wants to get the most out of their life by incorporating improved psychological and spiritual practices. My deeply empathic approach is supported by advanced training. My 20-plus years of post-graduate experience allow clients to receive effective, personal treatment. I have successfully treated many people who have struggled with depression, anxiety, addiction, and grief and loss. I always try to honor the brave decision it takes to seek professional help, and I take that commitment seriously. My extensive training and experience in psychoanalysis and psychotherapy allow for the professional fluency and personal warmth needed to support people through depression, anxiety, addiction, and grief and loss. For years, I have helped adults and adolescents reach personal goals that once felt out of reach. Come in for a free face-to-face consultation, and I will discuss treatment options that I provide, as well as options other professionals provide. You have everything to gain by reaching out for help, and I look forward to working with you. You don't have to walk your road alone.

I welcome the opportunity to join in your journey towards a better life. The internal turmoil and external struggles you may be currently facing are very difficult to endure. Sadness, anxiety or relationship difficulties pose real barriers to your ability to appreciate yourself and experience joy. The negative thoughts and emotions are powerful forces that taint the view of yourself, others, and the world around you. They cause unnecessary pain and suffering, as they filter your perception of the past, the present, and the future, in a never-ending pattern of defeat. With my professional guidance and your courage, we can bring more happiness, confidence, and satisfaction in your personal connections. My therapeutic approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and insight-oriented interventions to help identify the negative beliefs that have prevented you from achieving your goals and experience happiness. Together we will build a caring and supportive environment to help you rise above your suffering and expand your capacity for work, love, and experience genuine connections. Through our encounters, you will learn new skills that will help you overcome the adversities that life presents. Please visit my website to explore my professional services to get started.

My work focuses on individuals dealing with substance use alongside mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), grief and loss, and trauma. I provide clinical insight and care coordination to help each person create a clear, practical plan that promotes stability and supports progress toward recovery. If you’re feeling stuck or uncertain about your next steps, you don’t have to navigate it on your own. Taking that first step to reach out can be challenging, but it can also open the door to meaningful change. I offer a supportive, judgment-free space where we can work together to better understand your situation and identify a path forward that feels right.

Empowerment, empathy, compassion, and trust are the pillars upon which I build a safe healing space for clients to overcome obstacles. Along with a secure therapeutic relationship, I use interventions proven effective such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). I have completed Level 1 & Level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. When working with couples, I channel these skills towards building a platform to increase relationship intimacy through healthy communication, conflict resolution, building love maps, and making life dreams come true. For several years I have worked with individuals, couples, groups, and families from diverse backgrounds, propelling all towards their full potential. Ethically, I use only evidence-based practices supported by groundbreaking research, which provide clients with interventions demonstrated to work best for their unique struggles. I look forward to providing an engaging, educational, and life-altering experience in all sessions, increasing mental strength and providing a smoother ride ahead in life.

My style is warm, collaborative, and practical. Many clients come in dealing with anxiety, depression, OCD, procrastination, relationship stress, or feeling stuck with big decisions. Together, we clarify what matters most, build skills you can use this week, and measure what’s working. I help clients move from stress and low mood to clarity, confidence, and stronger relationships. We set clear goals, practice effective skills, and track progress together using TEAM‑CBT (Level 3), CBT, ACT, and mindfulness. Telepsychology available via PSYPACT.
