Nicole Lacherza-Drew
I am a Licensed Psychologist in New Jersey and New York, providing individual therapy to children, adolescents, and adults both face to face and online. I believe every person has different hurdles to conquer in life, and might need assistance along the way. With that being said, I work with my patients to form a safe and comfortable treatment environment to successfully accomplish their treatment goals. When working with patients, I believe one of the most important factors is the therapist-patient relationship. I take the time to build a solid therapeutic relationship so I can best serve my patients.
I provide mainly cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and person-centered therapy. In order to tailor therapy to each patient, I pull from additional evidence-based intervention areas I have training. Additional areas include: play therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, positive psychology, LGBTQIA+, and trauma focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT).
I encourage you to reach out so we can discuss your needs and find the right path for you. A brief phone discussion will determine if I am the appropriate referral for you, and if you would like to schedule an intake session with me.
