Therapy can be helpful for anyone—not just people in crisis. You might consider therapy if you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply want a space to better understand yourself. You don’t need to have a specific “problem” to benefit from therapy. Many people see it as a proactive way to maintain their mental and emotional well-being. Therapy can improve their relationships with family and loved ones. If you’re unsure, schedule a FREE consultation. It's a low-pressure way to see if it's a good fit for you.

We’re committed to personalized, client-centered care that goes beyond a one-size-fits-all approach. We take the time to truly understand your unique experiences, goals, and challenges, and tailor our therapy accordingly. We create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you'll feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Prime Therapy believes that in-person therapy is still an approach that can offer more successful outcomes. Many therapists will only offer online, telehealth. They don't even have an office. We offer both options and we work with you to find the approach that's best for you.

Yes—telehealth appointments really do work. In fact, research consistently shows that virtual therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions for many common concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship issues. What matters most isn’t the setting—it’s the quality of the connection between you and your therapist. Telehealth also comes with some real advantages. You can attend sessions from the comfort and privacy of your own space, avoid commuting, and fit therapy more easily into your schedule. For many people, that convenience actually leads to better consistency and progress over time. Of course, telehealth isn’t the perfect fit for every situation. Some clients prefer being in the same room, and certain more complex or crisis situations may benefit from in-person care. But for most people, telehealth offers a flexible, effective, and highly personal way to get support. If you’re unsure, a good first step is simply to try it—you may be surprised at how natural and helpful it feels.

Yes. We're currently accepting new clients. We provide both in-person and telehealth appointments throughout New Jersey. We'll work with you to accommodate your needs, and to make therapy accessible and convenient. Group therapy sessions are best done in-person at our office in Bedminster. Telehealth is also available. The remote option allows you to participate from the comfort of your own home. Both options ensure a supportive environment where you'll engage directly with other group participants, and a facilitator. If you are unsure which therapy format is right for you, please reach out to us. We are happy to discuss your situation and help you decide on the approach that best meets your needs.

Determining the right length of treatment can be challenging. It depends on the severity of your symptoms, the time you can dedicate to treatment, the degree of family connection to symptoms, and external factors such as life events and other stressors. The key to success is really your consistent and active participation.In general, a realistic expectation for the length of treatment is about 16 sessions. But this timeline isn't fixed; you may progress through treatment quickly, while others may need more time to reach their goals.

Prime Therapy Services doesn't submit insurance claims directly to your insurance company on your behalf. And we don't accept insurance. Instead, we'll provide you with detailed statements. These statements are designed to help you submit a claim to your insurance provider, allowing you to seek reimbursement for your therapy. In addition to submitting claims yourself, you may have the opportunity to request an “in-network exception” or a “single case agreement” from your insurance provider. If your request for an exception or agreement is approved, your insurance company will reimburse you at in-network rates. This can reduce your out-of-pocket expenses.

Prime specializes in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. EMDR enables you to heal from the symptoms of emotional distress resulting from disturbing life experiences.  It focuses on changing the emotions, thoughts, or behaviors that come from a distressing experience.  It allows your brain to resume a natural healing process. EMDR is known for its success in treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, EMDR therapy has shown great success as a treatment for depression, addiction and substance use disorders. EMDR does not require you to go into extensive detail about your experiences. Instead, it works by helping your brain naturally process and resolve what feels “stuck,” often leading to faster and more lasting relief.

Prime Therapy is a leading provider of DBT. Emotion regulation is a core component of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). We've written our own workbook to support you on your healing journey. We'll use it to guide you during your therapy. DBT focuses on managing emotional responses in healthy and constructive ways. It helps you regulate your emotions by teaching practical skills that increase awareness, control, and resilience. Instead of feeling overwhelmed or reacting impulsively, DBT helps you pause, understand what you're feeling, and choose how to respond more effectively. DBT focuses on four key skill areas: Mindfulness: Helps you become more aware of your thoughts and emotions without judgment, so you can respond thoughtfully rather than react automatically. Distress Tolerance: Teaches you how to cope with intense emotions in the moment without making things worse. Emotion Regulation: Gives you tools to better understand your emotions, reduce emotional vulnerability, and shift unhelpful emotional patterns. Interpersonal Effectiveness: Helps you communicate your needs clearly while maintaining healthy relationships. By practicing these skills, many people find they experience fewer emotional extremes, recover more quickly from distress, and feel more in control of their reactions. Over time, DBT can help you build a more balanced and stable emotional life.

Your first session is all about getting to know you. We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, your current challenges, and what you hope to achieve. You’re welcome to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable—there’s no pressure. Your therapist may ask questions about your personal history, relationships, and any past experiences that feel relevant. This helps us better understand your unique situation and begin to identify a treatment approach that's best for you. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the therapy process, discuss preferences, and talk through any concerns you may have. Together, we’ll start creating a plan that feels supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. Most importantly, the first session is a safe, confidential space for you to feel heard and understood.

AI is responsive and some advice is occasionally accurate. But AI can't build the deep human bond between you and your therapist. And it's that bond that is the strongest predictor of successful therapy. That bond can't be replicated by software, or by an AI bot.Treat AI as a supplement to mental health care, not a replacement.

Sessions are 55 minutes and rates start at $160. Prime Therapy Services is an out-of-network practice, so we do not bill insurance directly. However, we'll provide you with a detailed statement (superbill) that you can submit to your insurer for reimbursement, if permitted.
