Sean Changlai

I believe each person holds the key to success and therapy is a form of guiding process to achieve these goals in life. Thus, I focus on empowering individuals and gaining further insight and understanding. I believe in not just focusing on the difficulties and issues, but also building skills and capacity in preparation of future challenges. Clients describe me as authentic, compassionate and empathetic. We work collaboratively on building on solutions to move forward in life and elevate you to a more positive life style in general. I am trained and deeply rooted in strength-based approach like Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Positive Psychology. I use a combination of CBT, DBT while weaving in mindfulness based on each individual’s need, strengths, challenges, learning style and goals. I specialize in young adults and working professionals, often on depression, anxiety, stress or relationship issues. I also work closely with families with young children with behavioral issues or intellectual disabilities. I practice both in NJ/NY and take several insurances.
