Many of the people I work with have complicated stories and families. They have struggled with relationships and symptoms of different kinds and come to therapy to share their experiences, perhaps for the first time. I am an experienced therapist with a full-time private practice. I work with adults and adolescents to help them have healthier relationships and build self-esteem. As a Certified EMDR therapist, I use EMDR skills to assist in treating traumatic events and relational trauma. I help parents and adolescents address emotional needs. I help couples develop trust and intimacy through Emotionally Focused Therapy.
I have a Doctorate of Social Work from Rutgers University where my area of study was shame (www.shame-explained.com), an MSW from Columbia University and a certificate in Psychoanalysis from CPPNJ. My approach is interactive, providing treatment which includes educating people about present day experiences and understanding influences from the past.
I am licensed in New York & New Jersey. I am the Director of Training, training analyst, and supervisor at the Center for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis of New Jersey. Please call with questions you may have about my practice or learn more about me at www.drjanethoffer.com.
