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.

Roland Achtau
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCADC, ICGC-1, CSAT Candidate
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.

Terri DiMatteo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
I'm Terri DiMatteo, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in New Jersey, and for more than a decade I've been helping individuals and couples navigate the most painful and disorienting chapters of their relationships. The people who find their way to my practice are often in one of three places.
In our work together, I take an attachment-based approach shaped by The Intimacy Bond™, a framework I developed from years of helping couples repair what felt beyond repair. With couples, my loyalty is to the relationship itself, not to either partner, so both of you can speak honestly without fear of being judged. After an affair, we move at a pace that honors the hurt while building a path toward trust.
When love has gone quiet, we uncover what pulled you apart and practice the small, daily ways of reaching for each other again. And for those recovering from narcissistic abuse, our individual work focuses on understanding what happened, restoring trust in your own perceptions, and setting boundaries that protect your peace.
You don't need your partner's agreement to begin. Many people start on their own. I meet with clients online throughout New Jersey, and a complimentary consultation is an easy, no-pressure way to see whether we're a good fit.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I specialize in working with individuals (children, teens and adults) and couples, and I am incredibly passionate about the work I do and the people with whom I have the honor to work. My areas of expertise are anxiety / stress, relationship challenges, conflict resolution, intrusive negative thoughts and patterns, loss/grief and depression.
Most clients and couples choose to work with me because they are looking for nontraditional therapy that provides them with concrete skills to improve their everyday lives and/or address specific concerns. Holistic and integrative in my approach, I believe that there is no "one size fits all" in therapy. Therefore, I uniquely tailor therapy sessions to meet each client's needs and goals. With extensive experience and training in results oriented and solutions focused cognitive therapies, positive psychology, mindfulness, Buddhist Psychology, Gottman Method for Couples, meditation, and yoga, I offer creative approaches that result in meaningful change and growth.
Above all, I am committed to creating therapeutic relationships that are built on trust, respect, transparency, empathy, honesty, and equality, and I always counsel from a nonjudgmental place of understanding and compassion.
I am happy to offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see how I can best support you! Why wait tomorrow when you can start today? Please reach out to schedule your free consultation on my calendar: https://calendly.com/jenna-sackman/phone-consultation
