Hawthorne, New Jersey therapist: Roland Achtau, licensed clinical social worker
Serving Black / African American

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.

Clifton, New Jersey therapist: Dr. Mike Abrams, psychologist
Serving Black / African American

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.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You’ve been doing all you can to improve your situation, but it seems like you’ve hit a wall. The constant weight of anxiety, depression, or past trauma is taking its toll, affecting your work or studies and your connections with others. Burnout is creeping in, and you’re realizing you need some extra support. Maybe therapy is uncharted territory for you, and it’s natural to feel jittery about taking that first step. Together, we can devise a strategy to tackle and alleviate your stress. I’ll equip you with valuable tools for coping, communication, reshaping your perspective, and adjusting behaviors. My aim is to empower you, putting more control back into your hands over your own life.
