David Jeraiseh, LMFT, LMFT — Therapist in New Jersey

Hi there, I'm David!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience supporting adults, teens, and families. I use evidence based therapy approaches in a collaborative, trauma informed, culturally responsive space where you can feel understood and supported.

My focus

If you feel caught in patterns that keep you from the life you want, you are not alone. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, or big life changes, we focus on what matters most to you. Together we shape each session around your goals, whether you want deeper understanding or practical ways to manage today’s challenges.

My approach

I take a collaborative and practical approach that helps you move from feeling stuck to feeling empowered. We use evidence based approaches like CBT, DBT, and ACT while looking at the big picture of your life so you can build coping skills, gain clarity, and create lasting change.

My communication style

My style is warm, steady, and collaborative. I listen closely to understand your experience and offer clear, compassionate feedback. In session, we might explore patterns, practice skills, or use evidence based tools to help you feel more centered and capable.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist to understand how people stay strong through overwhelming experiences. For more than ten years, I’ve supported clients in building resilience and trusting their ability to cope. I’m committed to helping people grow into the person they want to be, using evidence based approaches along the way.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by working collaboratively to understand what matters most to them. We use evidence based approaches like CBT, DBT, and ACT to break goals into clear, achievable steps. In session, we explore patterns, build coping skills, and adjust the plan as you grow so progress feels steady, meaningful, and sustainable.

Our first session

In our first session, we focus on getting to know you and what matters most in your life. I listen closely to understand your story, build rapport, and explore what you want to change. Together, we begin shaping goals and identifying the stressors or patterns you want support with.
