Great to meet you!
My name is Susana Pestana-Szwarc, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of New Jersey. I am certified Trauma -Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I have specialized training trauma, PTSD, sexual abuse, domestic violence, family/relationships issues, grief and life transitions. I enjoy working with teens, adults, older adults, couples and families.
I believe that every person has the potential to create a positive and change in their life. Often many things get in the way to achieve those goals, such trauma, depression, anxiety and fear. My goal is to make this therapeutic experience as pleasing and positive for you. I am here to guide you through hard patches along the way based on your needs.
Asking for help can be a difficult decision to make. With nearly 12 years of experience working with children, teens, adults and families I respect the uniqueness of each client from different backgrounds and belief systems. You will find a place of safety and no judgments. I am looking forward to meeting you.
