Teletherapy for New Jersey

Hi, I'm Shonda R. Brooks, MA, LPC, NCC, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) in NJ, a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), certified Prepare/Enrich Trainer and Facilitator, and am level 1 & 2 EMDR trained. I have experience in counseling individuals, groups, families, and couples. I also work specifically with high profile clients having experience with musicians, actors, politicians, professional sports players, and more. I pride myself on maintaining confidentiality; noting the increased need for privacy and awareness of the constraints various industries have on the high-profile client.

I provide therapy to adults seeking help with depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationships, parenting, grief, and trauma. I practice psychoanalytically, which means I place special attention on personal and family history, relationships, thoughts and feelings, and the treatment relationship. My aim is to help my patients reach their goals by providing a warm and safe environment where they can say everything. I help patients gain insight into their individual personalities and life circumstances and develop internal resources to help them weather difficult times and have the courage to try new ways of being.

Do you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stressed out and doubtful? I partner with individuals and new (or experienced!) parents who feel anxious, overwhelmed or uncertain and bring them to calm, confident and hopeful. I work with men and women using empathy and listening. I will work alongside you, empower you and guide you toward freedom. With specialized training in peripartum mental health I can support you as you explore parenting and recognize when the "baby blues" have become more than you can handle. If worry, fear and stress are consuming, I have tools to offer to support you as you explore hope. Are you ready to gain freedom?

With the demographic shift in aging and improvements in healthcare, it is time to reconsider an alternative mindset towards being an Older Adult. This phase in one’s lifetime should be meaningful, fulfilling, purposeful and contain a robust positive psychological well-being. Let's make 70 the new 40. It is time to shed the negative thoughts and attitude, replacing it with a better version of yourself.

I love walking with women through challenging seasons of life, especially women navigating relationships and empowerment in midlife and those in their early 20s who are seeking meaning and trying to go deeper in self-awareness and insight. My clients come to me for things like relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, inner child work, setting boundaries, life transitions, emotional regulation, shame, and codependency. I also create a safe space for clients who wish to explore their healing journey through a faith-based lens. See if I'm accepting new clients and book online at www.resolutioncc.com/team

Welcome! It takes strength to reach out for support. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and certified school counselor, I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. Together we will work to develop the insight, skills, and tools you’ll need to achieve your goals. As a therapist who values a holistic approach, I work to provide a safe, brave space for you to explore the ways you want to grow, heal and feel empowered in your life. I am trained and have experience in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Whether it's the stress of parenting, work, or relationships, life is full of ups and downs similar to a roller-coaster. Are you overwhelmed? Do you have days where you're tired of parenting and your partner? One minute you are at a basketball game or ballet recital cheering them on and then you're dreaming of the day they move out! I get it and I'd love to help. Let's build your mind and body's resilience to improve your holistic health. As your coach, my goal is to make the process a little easier by using Positive Psychology Coaching techniques, The Gottman Method, and Harm Reduction strategies.

Are you struggling in the workplace and/or with your relationships ? I am a skilled licensed psychologist and I work with children and adults within the context of their families. I treat anxiety, depression, phobias, OCD , mood disorders and learning disabilities, and often use cognitive behavioral interventions such as systematic desensitization. My background in School Psychology has sensitized me to the impact that cognitive limitations, learning disabilities, ADHD and spectrum disorders have on day to day functioning in adulthood, where the most typical presenting problems are Anxiety, Depression, and Relationship issues.

Do you have a sense that you want more out of life but just can't seem to get there? Been there. My practice is dedicated to helping men, women, and couples work through relational, emotional and personal blocks so that they can lead a more meaningful life. I've played many roles in my life: actor, playwright, bio and adoptive father, branding consultant, son, journalist, brother, advocate, and therapist/coach to name a few. I understand and love working with searchers of all stripes in a style that can be warm, fun, and frank.

Feeling lost after a chronic illness diagnosis? You're not alone. Many people struggle with the emotional weight of a serious illness. Do you yearn to see life differently and navigate challenges with strength? Therapy can help. Together, we can explore ways to build resilience, manage stress, and find hope, even in the face of difficulty. Every situation holds the potential for growth. Let's embark on this journey together and unlock your inner strength to create a life that feels fulfilling.

What if i told you, you didn't have to re-live your trauma, to heal from it? Remembering is not recovering. The only thing worse than living through a traumatic event, are the after affects that impact the present day. These affects may include mood instability, flashbacks, depression, irritability, anxiety, hyper-vigilance, isolation, destructive behaviors, and more. Past trauma has the ability to change our worldview in the present, contributing to an ongoing sense of danger, fear, hopelessness, and shame. That's why, as a therapist, I use an array of here-and-now techniques to assist clients in re-establishing a sense of safety.

Are you seeking an expert trauma therapist and influential guide for teens, adults, and couples? Imagine finding a compassionate professional who understands your deepest struggles, whether it's healing from past trauma, navigating complex relationships, or fostering personal growth. Our ideal clients are those who desire transformative change, aiming to overcome emotional hurdles, improve their mental health, and build stronger connections. They want a trusted partner in their journey, someone who not only provides expert therapy but also inspires and empowers them to achieve their goals and live their best lives.

Life can leave you feeling lonely, anxious, and depressed. But you don’t need to stay there. I invite you to inquire within. It's time to reconnect with the wisdom within you. Your body carries information that you haven't tapped into or perhaps don't yet have access to. I'm here to help you realize that the answers are already there. We might just need to shine some light on the shadows (things that have been to hard to look at). Acknowledging and integrating those parts that have been ignored or tucked away can lead to more authentic ways of showing up in your relationships with yourself, with others, and with the planet.

Do you want to feel stronger, sexier, healthier, more confident, & more empowered? Are you ready to have a deeper, more meaningful relationship with yourself & others? If yes, let's talk. I support all adults in getting through stress, securing meaningful relationships, & deepening self-awareness. I offer talk therapy by exploring general & sexual wellness through ACT, CBT, positive psychology, behavioral health consultancy, body politics, social history, queer theory, values coaching, & concrete solutions. My style is conversational, collaborative, direct, educational, empathic, evidenced-based, existential, & relational.

If things are hard for you or your family, you are not alone. Are you trying everything but things still aren't working? Is your child struggling, discouraged or behaving in a way you didn't expect? It's easy to feel like you're doing something wrong. Not necessarily. Many children (and adults) need strategies that match their learning style, or that need adjusting as life changes. With challenges like ADHD, oppositional behavior or Autism, navigating the world can be even harder, especially in our current situation. I believe we all have strengths to celebrate and room for growth. You deserve the best life has to offer.

Accepting new clients! Are you feeling hopeless and even considering divorce? Are you drained from fighting with your partner? It is likely a different topic each time, but the pattern of the arguments feels the same. They leave you feeling unheard, misunderstood, and maybe rejected and hurt. Or, perhaps, you’re in a relationship others envy because on the outside, you appear to get along so well. But behind closed doors, there is no connection, fun or intimacy. Work, kids, or other stressors drain your time and energy, and you do little more with your partner than fall asleep next to them exhausted at the end of the day.

Wellness Meets World is the answer you've been searching for to meet your wellness needs. We are a group of licensed professionals trained to guide you on your wellness journey. We have the pleasure of working with individuals across the lifespan experiencing various degrees of challenges. Are you having difficulty managing life's stressors or uncertain about how to regulate your emotions? Are you experiencing marital or relational difficulties? Have you found yourself questioning yourself as a working professional? Are you seeking advancement in your career and want to remove mental blocks from your path? We can help!

Pornography addiction can significantly impact your life and relationships but there is hope for recovery. I’m not just a mental health professional, I’ve been “you” for many years. I understand firsthand the personal struggles in your life and committed relationships that come with uncontrollable pornography use. The endless stream of attractive women a few clicks away on Pornhub, Onlyfan or Social Media is hard to quit even with all your willpower and promise to quit for the sake of your relationship.

The price of therapy should not be anxiety provoking. Are you wrestling with feelings of depression or anxiety? Is your consumption of alcohol becoming a problem? As we work together in therapy, we can uncover the reasons for these emotions and behaviors. Sometimes these maladaptive coping mechanisms can stem from past trauma or deeper wounds. I am committed to working with you on your journey to become the best version of yourself.
