About Mindful Connections Counseling
Meet the Therapist: Kimberly Gora-Buck, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years experience providing therapeutic services in outpatient and partial hospitalization settings. I specialize in working with those struggling with depression, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, ADD/ADHD, OCD, as well as disordered eating and women’s health issues.
Since I believe that building the therapeutic relationship is essential to your progress, it is very important to me to create a safe, non-judgmental, space. I work best with those motivated to making change in their life by empowering you to achieve small goals to reduce your emotional suffering.
I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from Rutgers University and a Bachelor's degree in Social Work from Temple University. After leaving Sussex County to further my education, I recently returned home and am looking forward to providing care to my local community. In my free time, I enjoy reading, meditating, house projects, caring for my family and pets and going on family walks at the beach and state parks to enjoy the nature all around us!
Therapy Approach
I believe that everyone has the ability to lead a happy and fulfilling life. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that mental, physical and emotional well-being are integral to overall health, and that therapy can be a powerful tool for achieving this balance.
Evidence based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindful Self Compassion (MSC) are used to collaboratively work with clients to identify their goals and develop a customized treatment plan. A strong emphasis is placed on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship.
Services
Individual therapy sessions (in-person and virtual) are offered for adults 18 and older. Specializations include anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, mood disorders, ADHD, OCD, disordered eating and women’s health.
