A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.


Lao Tzu

Welcome

Have you been feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed or unfocused?

Would you like to feel more confident, gain balance and thrive?


With the right tools and therapist support you can make positive change. Asking for help does not mean something is wrong with you, or you have failed. Reaching out is a courageous first step toward a healthier life which you deserve.

 

Let me help you.

 

My name is Cara and I founded Maximize Wellness to provide therapeutic  services for adults, just like you, who may be living with emotional health challenges, stressful life transitions, and/or feeling bogged down with worry and everyday pressures. 


Feel free to explore this website to learn more about how therapy may be right for you!

Mental Health

Clinical Therapy

Individual psychotherapy sessions with me focus on treating the whole person and not just symptoms. In our sessions, I utilize evidence-based techniques and work collaboratively with my clients to reach their goals, increase emotional resiliency, and foster a sense of calm in their lives. My therapeutic approach is based in trauma-informed, mindfulness-based modalities. Click the button below to learn more about thereuputic models I use and how psychotherapy may be able to help you. 

Sessions are available in-person in Chatham NJ or via telehealth in NJ or VT.
