Why do eating disorders often begin during the middle and high school years?

Many of the students we support describe feeling overwhelmed by expectations, friendships, and changes in their bodies. Food can become a way to feel in control when everything else feels uncertain.

We have seen eating struggles linked to:
✔ Academic pressure
✔ Social stress or bullying
✔ Changes in body and self image
✔ Anxiety or low self confidence

Addressing these challenges early can help prevent long term health concerns.

Are you avoiding places, people, or memories that once felt safe?

Avoidance is a common PTSD response and can quietly take over life. Online PTSD therapy helps individuals gently face triggers with evidence-based support without the stress of driving to appointments or waiting rooms.

Benefits of online therapy:
✔ Comfort of your own environment
✔ Flexible scheduling for busy lives
✔ Reduced anxiety about traveling
✔ Same clinical support as in-person treatment

A client who dreaded her in-office visits found online therapy less intimidating. She engaged more openly, learned exposure techniques step by step, and regained confidence interacting with her world again.

You deserve support that meets you where you are.

Do you feel anxious even when your baby is finally asleep?🌙

If your mind won’t shut off and you’re stuck in a loop of fear, that could be postpartum anxiety. Unlike baby blues, postpartum anxiety often includes persistent worry that doesn’t match the situation and can make rest nearly impossible.

Signs it may be more than baby blues:
✔ Constant worry about your baby’s safety, feeding, health
✔ Racing thoughts and physical tension
✔ Difficulty sleeping even when exhausted
✔ Symptoms lasting more than 2 weeks

One client told us she checked the crib repeatedly through the night. Therapy helped her reduce reassurance-seeking, calm her nervous system, and finally experience real rest again.

You are not alone, and help is available.

Ever feel like you’re the only one struggling, even when you’re surrounded by people?😔

Many Paramus residents deal with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and isolation, but hesitate to seek therapy because they think support must be one-on-one. Group therapy offers a therapist-led space where shared experiences and guided discussion promote real healing and growth.

Why group therapy helps:
✔Builds connection and reduces isolation through shared understanding
✔Offers structured, clinician-led support, not casual conversation
✔Helps you practice communication and emotional expression safely

One client told us they expected to stay quiet during group sessions, but hearing others share similar struggles helped them open up. Within weeks, they reported feeling less alone and more confident speaking honestly.

Are you trying to decide between in-person counseling and online therapy for your teen?🤔

Both options can work, but the best choice depends on your teen’s personality, stress level, and daily schedule. Many Paramus families are choosing online therapy because it fits into real life without sacrificing quality support.
Family Psychiatry and Therapy

Quick comparison:
✔Online therapy: Convenient, private, easier to attend consistently.
✔In-person therapy: Strong structure, helpful for teens who benefit from a dedicated space.
✔Both: Can support anxiety, depression, school stress, self-esteem, and relationships.

One teen who struggled with social anxiety felt less pressure online. Once they built trust, they transitioned into deeper work and started participating more in school and family conversations.

Let’s find the best fit for your teen.

Noticing a loved one seems “off” this holiday season?❄️

Depression doesn’t take a break just because it’s the season of cheer. Many families tell us they’re unsure how to support someone who seems withdrawn or down.

At Family Psychiatry and Therapy, we often help loved ones learn compassionate ways to show up without pressure.

Support tips:
✔ Listen without judgment and validate their feelings.
✔ Encourage gentle routines like shared meals or short walks.
✔ Understand that fatigue, sadness, and withdrawal are common signs.
✔ Offer help in small ways like managing errands or planning quiet moments.

A parent told us their adult child withdrew from holiday gatherings last year. By inviting them to a low-pressure dinner with quiet music, they supported connection without overwhelming expectations.

✔Regular routines for sleep, diet, and daily activity help regulate mood.
✔Flexible online therapy options make mental health support easier to access no matter the weather or schedule.

Can your family really heal after a big loss without talking about it?

Many Paramus families believe that time alone will “fix” everything after a loss. Without support, grief can linger, surface in unexpected ways, and affect family life. Grief counseling helps families process loss and rebuild hope together.

How You Can Begin to Rebuild After Loss:
✔Structured grief work helps normalize feelings like guilt, anger, confusion, and sadness.
✔Family-based counseling addresses relational shifts, communication gaps, and emotional disconnection.
✔Online and in-person therapy options make support accessible for busy families in New Jersey.

Healing is within reach.

What happens when short-term anxiety relief becomes a long-term struggle?

Many clients share that their anxiety medication worked well in the beginning, but after a few months, the same pill didn’t bring the same calm.

We’ve helped patients explore deeper, long-term strategies like:
✔ Cognitive-behavioral therapy to retrain thought patterns
✔ Lifestyle adjustments that strengthen emotional balance
✔ Medication reviews to find the safest and most effective options

Finding peace isn’t about taking more medication — it’s about finding the right balance.
