Find a Therapist in Summit, NJ

LMFT

I’m Danielle Forma, a Licensed Professional Counselor who provides individual therapy to those struggling with a variety of life’s challenges. Asking for help is a sign of strength and courage. Recognizing that you can’t do everything on your own is often the first step toward achieving wellness in today’s fast-paced and demanding world. At times, the stressors we face can feel overwhelming, creating an imbalance between what’s being asked of us and the resources we have to cope. I believe that each of us possesses an innate capacity for healing and growth—an inner strength that, when nurtured, can guide us toward greater balance and fulfillment. My goal as a therapist is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you feel seen, validated, heard, and understood. Together, we’ll create space for you to express your authentic self and explore the challenges you’re facing. The therapeutic relationship we build will serve as the foundation for your healing and recovery.

Hello, I’m Courtney Minarsky, a licensed clinical social worker offering telehealth therapy to residents of New Jersey and New York. My approach to therapy is collaborative, practical, and encouraging. I use a strength-based perspective to help people understand their needs, accept their genuine selves, and heal pain from the past so that they can begin to finally feel calmer and happier. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and find healing and growth through a supportive, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship. I have experience working with clients facing a range of issues, including anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem struggles, and parenting challenges. My goal is to create a safe space where you can feel heard and understood while offering practical tools and insights that can support you in overcoming difficulties and making lasting positive changes. Together, we’ll collaborate to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a way that brings clarity and healing. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming emotions, relationship difficulties, or looking to achieve personal growth, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
