Hi, I’m Cole, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey. I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, identity concerns, and relationship difficulties. I help clients understand what they’re struggling with in the present and how past experiences continue to shape their emotions, relationships, and patterns.
My style is warm, conversational, honest, and validating. I show up as a real person in the room and understand how earlier experiences can influence the way you move through the world. My goal is to help you explore what’s happening beneath the surface, make sense of emotional reactions, and understand why certain parts of you show up the way they do. Therapy is collaborative and focused on insight, coping, and meaningful change. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and especially passionate about working with individuals who have learned to minimize parts of themselves to stay safe.
In our first session, we’ll get to know each other and talk about what brought you to therapy and what you’d like support with right now. I aim to create a space where every part of you feels seen and understood. If you’re looking for a therapist who listens closely, helps things make sense, and supports real, lasting change, I’d be glad to work with you.
