Crystal Roskell

Hi, I am a New Jersey Licensed Clinical Therapist with experience treating adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, ADHD and various co-occurring disorders. I specialize in Borderline Personality Disorder and have had many clients referred to me for anger management.

I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, trained in T-CBT, Exposure and Response Therapy and other modalities. I am also a Clinical Supervisor. I have been successful in helping individuals overcome panic attacks, social anxiety, trauma and self-injury and other unhelpful behaviors.

I believe in collaboration with clients--not directives. My style is genuine and empathetic yet solution-focused. I am skilled in using different treatment modalities; I realize that everyone's needs and preferences are different. Ultimately, I believe in empowering clients to help themselves, so they have the skills to remain healthy after our work together is complete.

The initial session is typically focuses establishing rapport and additional information gathering. I encourage clients to ask questions; I believe that therapy should be a two way street, wherein clients feel comfortable. Goodness of fit is important for the therapeutic relationship, so this is usually determined organically during the first session. During the initial session, we explore clients' needs and how I may be of help, including potential treatment modalities. After the first session, clients gain a sense of what to expect for treatment moving forward.
