Pamela Goffman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, TEP
Psychotherapy opens our perceptions to the meanings behind our beliefs and patterns of behavior, that in turn comprise the roles we take in our lives. My job is to help you integrate these perceptions and access these meanings, so you can expand your life by creating new roles.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
I can make this very easy for you - unless you’re looking for a specific technique the only way to tell if your therapist is a good fit is by being in a relationship with them. This can be virtual or in person, but we’ve known for a long time that the primary determining factor in successful therapy is the alliance. While a resume and creds may be a starting point, I think you’ll find it’s rarely a deciding factor.
-
For therapy to "work" you have to be vulnerable. To be vulnerable you need to feel safe. To feel safe you need to trust. This is the first layer of a deep, intimate, successful relationship that I model. Some people have never experienced this before - the idea that you can be heard, truly and deeply and not be judged, blamed or put in a box.
Walk with me - you're not alone in this.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile.
"People can cry much easier than they can change." — James Baldwin
Life can be challenging, and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, family conflict, trauma, or major life transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what comes next. Taking the first step toward therapy is not always easy, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, educator, and mother of four with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, parenting support, adolescent issues, self-esteem, trauma, family relationships, and life transitions. I often joke that I speak fluent teen, but my true passion is helping people strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and develop the confidence needed to overcome life's challenges.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and practical tools while helping you uncover the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore concerns, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and develop the skills needed to thrive both now and in the future.
I provide in-person therapy in Montclair, New Jersey, as well as secure online therapy throughout New Jersey and Florida.
I offer a complimentary consultation and would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can work together.
