Elisabeth Coffey, LCSW, LCADC

My clients describe me as:

Warm, Authentic, Genuine, Empathetic, Funny, Down-To-Earth, Unpretentious, Kind, Understanding, Generous, Thoughtful, Helpful and Charming

Something to know about my approach is:

I provide a supportive space free from pressure and expectations for teens and young adults to become self-reliant and self-directed. Jointly, I help parents manage their separation anxiety and learn skills to nurture their kid’s growth and autonomy.

Together, we will:

Illuminate the privileges and rewards of independence. Depending on others is easy, but will it get you the life you want? As we build your confidence in what you can do on your own, you will naturally begin to grow in autonomy and hopefulness.

I specialize in working with people who:

Are teens and young adults and their families who are struggling with the Adolescent-Parent separation. I have success helping young people connect with their inner motivation and supporting parents as they learn to let go and let their kids grow up.

I became a therapist because:

I am a natural listener and problem solver. I have always cared deeply about others.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I offer online sessions and that can be very convenient for busy people. My office is near Trader Joe's and Lifetime Fitness in Florham Park.

More about me and my practice:

I am out of network with all insurance but I can check your benefits and let you know what your coverage is and how much reimbursement you can get. Filing out of network claims can be done very easily through an app provided by my practice.
