Therapists for Women’s Issues in Bergen County
Tatum Gonzales, LSW
Adolescents, Young Adults, Anxiety & Self-Esteem.

Life can get messy, and sometimes we all need a safe space to untangle the knots. That’s where I come in!
I’m a dedicated therapist with a passion for helping individuals of all ages—children, adolescents, and teens—navigate the complexities of life and discover their own strengths and resilience.
Working as a school counselor in an elementary school, I see the daily stressors that children face. With years of professional and personal experience, I believe in the power of collaboration and empowerment in therapy. My approach is rooted in the understanding that everyone has the capacity to heal, grow, and thrive. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and equipped to take control of their own journeys.
Areas of specialty include:
- Anxiety
- School Avoidance/School Phobia
- Behavioral challenges
- Emotion regulation
- Neurodivergence
- Peer relationships
- Self-esteem and confidence
A Licensed (Clinical) Social Worker in the state of New Jersey, I received my master’s degree in social work from Rutgers University. Having first-hand experience of working with a therapist as a child, I went into social work hoping to provide the same level of comfort and support that I received during very vulnerable years.
I look forward to working with you and supporting you every step of the way!
