Karen Lewis, LCSW, PsyA

Karen Lewis, LCSW, PsyA Is your anxiety stopping you from what you really want to do? Want to make a change? Allow us to work together!

I strive to establish a safe and comfortable environment that is tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are facing struggles in your career, in a relationship, with loss, depression or anxiety, and the difficulties that come with such transitions and change, I will help you find the solutions and confidence needed to get you back on track. While I am skilled in treating the general clinical population, I also specialize in the treatment of parent's of children with special needs, including, but not limited to, parents of children with juvenile diabetes and those with a diagnosis on the autistic spectrum. My goal is to empower you by identifying the issues at hand, focusing on your strengths and the goals you want to achieve. This collaborative process will help facilitate your own unique pathways toward growth and change. In addition to my LCSW, I have completed seven years of psychoanalytic training at the New Jersey Institute for Training in Psychoanalysis. Qualifications
