About me

For the past 11 years I have had the honor in being able to do what I love and that is helping others. Having a nonjudgmental third party to talk to when having a difficulty time coping with life is helpful. Depression and Anxiety have become common in our world due to the stress we experience on a regular basis. There are many coping skills to help people work through stress. Taking the time to learn and practice them while talking to a therapist can make you mentally stronger. BECAUSE I WORK ON VIDEO I AM AVAILABLE ANYWHERE IN NEW JERSEY.
I work with clients who present with a variety of life’s issues. I have worked with people who identify with Depression, Anxiety, Traumatic Crises, Anger Management, PTSD, and other diagnoses. I have 7 years experience working with children from the age of 5 to 19. Some experience is children with anger issues, Bipolar, Oppositional Defiance Disorder. I use a person-centered approach as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of New Jersey, I am a Professional Trauma Specialist. Services are provided via HIPPA-compliant secure video sessions.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Michelle Nirenberg. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

Written on Sep 13, 2021 after therapy with Michelle for 2 weeks

She uses comedy which put us both at ease. She has really made my daughter feel comfortable and she is really opening up. In this short time I already she a lot of improvements in her self confidence.
