Richard Ross
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
My belief is that two of the most important tools to effecting positive change in our lives are the desire for a richer self-awareness and a well-developed sense of humor.
Therapy, and Life Coaching are a blend of science and craft based upon the bond that a client and therapist create together. Mor

Roland Achtau
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC, MAPC
Due to the sensitive nature of addiction, it is important to seek help from someone who understands. Having had my own personal recovery experience, I understand and relate to the challenges of maintaining one's recovery. I give specialized attention to each client I serve by treating him or her holistically and offering him or her an umbrella of complimentary services. Recovery is about treating the person, not just the addiction.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
I limit my practice to a few clients with whom I can offer meaningful help. I do not think it is ethical for a psychologist to agree to work with someone who has a problem outside of their expertise or someone who has barriers that the psychologist suspects they cannot overcome. When I conclude that I can help someone, I collaborate with them while applying the most appropriate methods for their problems. I choose these methods from among the many I have studied or developed. This is sometimes called a Transdiagnostic Integrative technique. Here, a clinical label or diagnosis is less important than the unique collection of symptoms a person is living with. I also make sure that I come to understand the client's point of view, how their adversities, their personal philosophy, and their level of suffering combine to lead to their anxiety, depressed mood, or even anger. When the client agrees, I prefer to use psychological testing to be sure my assessment of the client's situation is supported by the best available science. When I conduct psychotherapy, I know it can only be effective when I view the client as presenting many intricate problems that must be fully understood, so each client's issues are approached as scientific hypotheses that guide therapy, which guide my specific interventions, but is always open to revision as new life history information or psychological data becomes available.
Since I have trained numerous therapists and continue researching and publishing in the field, my clients are assured they receiving the most effective evidence-based interventions. If you do see me, you can be confident that you will be unconditionally accepted in a safe and comfortable therapeutic relationship with every effort being made to help you.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
If you’ve landed here, there’s a good chance you’re going through a lot—anxiety, depressed mood, self-doubt, or maybe just the exhaustion that comes from trying to hold everything together.
Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to face it alone.
I offer a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can show up exactly as you are. As a therapist, I work with people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, shame, and the lasting impact of early emotional wounds. I also specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ individuals as they navigate identity, coming out, and the complexities of living authentically in a world that doesn’t always understand.
In our work together, we’ll move at your pace—exploring the patterns that are keeping you stuck, building practical tools for emotional resilience, and gently working toward healing, self-acceptance, and change.
I am a psychoanalyst with over 30 years experience as a clinician, teacher, and author. I work with both individuals and couples.

Clear Light Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, lCSW
Hello, I’m Dana Colthart, LCSW, and I’m the founder of Clear Light Therapy, a group practice based in Englewood, NJ. I specialize in working with individuals and couples who are navigating challenges related to OCD, eating disorders and anxiety.
My approach is rooted in evidence-based care, drawing from modalities such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Gottman-informed couples work. At the heart of my work is the belief that lasting change comes from both skill-building and compassionate support.
Clients often share that they feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered in our sessions. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what’s holding you back, learn tools to manage difficult emotions, and move toward a life that feels more aligned with your values.
Whether you’re struggling with intrusive thoughts, body image concerns, anxiety that feels overwhelming, or patterns in your relationship that are hard to shift, you don’t have to face it alone. Together, we can chart a path forward that is practical, supportive, and tailored to your needs.
I offer both in-person sessions in Bergen County and virtual therapy across New Jersey, making therapy accessible and flexible for your lifestyle. If you’d like to learn more, I invite you to reach out for a complimentary 15-minute discovery call.
I look forward to walking alongside you in your journey toward healing and growth.
