Hi! My name is Dr. Ed Callaghan. I have a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and am fully licensed in the state of New Jersey. I am a Founder of the Integrative Therapy Institute of NJ and it’s Director of Child Services. I specialize in working with preschool and school-age children as well as adolescents and adults. I am especially proficient at working with children with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, behavioral problems, and school-related difficulties--especially problems related to academics and poor drive/motivation. I am also VERY SUCCESSFUL at bridging conflictual relationships between children and their parents.
When you meet with me, you can expect me to be warm, relaxed, attentive, and very supportive. I quickly zero in on the problems to be addressed and offer an outline for achieving improvement. I am VERY easy to talk to and my approach is non-judgmental and very supportive.
I am also highly experienced in depression, anxiety disorders, BPD, bipolar disorders, psychosis, and trauma. I also have expertise in play therapy, parenting support, and consultation with Child Study Teams. If you or your child are struggling in any of these areas, please reach out to me directly to see if I might be well-suited to work with you.
