Adult's Therapy.
When you’ve read all the books, heeded advice from your loved ones, and tried to make changes on your own, but you still don’t feel like yourself, it’s time to try a new approach. Sometimes, the challenges we face can’t be solved alone; sometimes, we need to take a deeper look to find the root of the issue.
Believe us, we've been there. It's why we're so passionate about what we do. If you've found yourself reading this page, perhaps a part of you is ready to explore a different way of living. Yes, it is possible.
​
How Does it Work?
We help people understand their feelings and needs. Together with you, we develop the steps and daily tools necessary to create positive changes in your life. Here is how we do it:
-
Discuss current problems or goals
-
Identify early problem-solving skills
-
Examine patterns of relating to others
-
Develop goal-oriented strategies
-
Assess personal resources
-
Learn tools and techniques for changing old patterns of behavior and implementing your decisions
​
Therapy is About You.
In individual therapy, we will spend time understanding, how you are experiencing your life in a deep and connective way. With support, compassion, and non-judgmental curiosity, we will look below the surface.
Much of this work will require you to strengthen the part of yourself that can track, observe, and experience what you feel in a moment-to-moment way. In our busy lives, it is easy to avoid or not notice our emotions until they suddenly demand our attention. We will encourage you to embrace these sometimes uncomfortable feelings: when they are honored and released, they can be fantastic guides.
Above all, it is vital that our relationship feels supportive and warm, and that it serves as a container in which you can be completely yourself, free to explore with honesty and bravery. It is always our first priority to make individual therapy a space where you feel truly seen and understood.
​
All the insight we will ever need to live well will come from fully being who and where we are.

How We Work.
-
How do I get started?The first step is to give us a call at: 973-348-5919 or email us at: insights@clinicalcounseling.net. If we are unavailable at that moment, you will absolutely get a call back within 1-2 business days. The point of this brief phone consultation is to understand your goals for treatment. At this time we will coordinate availability and schedule an intake session and/or provide you with referrals to other providers or services that may be helpful for your situation.
-
Are you in office or virtual?Clinical Insights continues to offer in-person sessions and secure video sessions for patients as we navigate COVID-19.We are offering safe and sanitary office appointments following CDC guidelines in our Basking Ridge office AND virtual appointments on a HIPAA-secure video platform for individuals or couples who are looking to meet with their therapist in the comfort of their own home!
-
Do you accept insurance?Like most private practitioners, the specialists at Clinical Insights are out-of-network providers. That means we do not accept insurance directly. However, we make the reimbursement process as turnkey as possible by providing all the necessary paperwork, including receipts and diagnosis codes, in a timely fashion.
-
Will I get reimbursed?It is our experience that most patients are reimbursed for 50 to 80% off the cost of their sessions if they have out-of-network mental health coverage. It is helpful to call individual insurance providers to determine your level of coverage in advance. Most are pleasantly surprised.
-
Do you have any sliding-scale or pro-bono therapy slots?Clinical Insights, LLC offers some sliding-scale and pro-bono therapy services, as needed. Each specialist has a set number of sliding scale and pro-bono spots, and these positions are typically income-based. To inquire further about fee-reduction services, or for appropriate referrals, please contact us.
-
How long does therapy last?That is up to you! Some clients would like a speedy resolution to a problem. Six or fewer sessions may be enough to understand the problem from the therapist’s trained perspective, collaborate with the therapist to uncover the solutions available to you, and approach the problem with a trial-and-error strategy. Other clients prefer to take their time and explore/examine their lives in the past and present. For both approaches to have the best outcome, collaboration, communication, and a relationship between the therapist and the client are critical.
