Lauren deFressine

I am a clinical psychologist practicing in New Jersey. I received her doctoral degree in clinical psychology from The New School for Social Research and have over a decade of experience in working with adults, children and families across a range of settings. I have had training in play therapy, psychodynamic and relational psychotherapy, as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I enjoy helping people work through issues of anxiety, mood disorders, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties.

I approach therapy as a partnership, tailoring treatment to the unique needs of the client and taking a nonjudgmental, curious, and collaborative stance.

You will have the opportunity to share what has brought you to therapy and what your hopes are for therapy. If you are not quite sure, we will figure that out together.
