Therapy Counseling for Depression | Anxiety | Trauma | Addiction Summit NJ

Therapy | Summit NJ – myHope Therapy Services

Welcome. I’m John Migueis, MSW, LCSW — a therapist in Summit NJ providing evidence-based care for adolescents, adults, and families since 1998. My practice is rooted in professionalism, clinical training, and real-world experience supporting clients through a wide range of mental health challenges.


Areas of Specialization

  • Anxiety & OCD
  • Trauma & PTSD
  • Mood Disorders (Depression, Bipolar)
  • Addiction & Recovery
  • Anger Management
  • Borderline Personality Disorder
  • Family Conflict & Parenting Issues

I’m trained in evidence-based treatment models and work with each client to identify the most effective therapeutic approach.


Therapeutic Approach

I draw from multiple evidence-based modalities, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

These methods support clients in gaining insight, building coping skills, and making meaningful changes in how they think, feel, and respond to life’s challenges.


What to Expect in Therapy

Beginning therapy can be a significant step, and it’s normal to have questions about what to expect. My goal is to provide a professional, confidential setting where we can focus on the issues that matter most to you.

Sessions are structured and goal-oriented. We’ll look at the challenges you’re facing, identify underlying patterns, and develop practical strategies to help you move forward. Therapy is tailored to your specific needs — whether you’re dealing with anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, or family-related stress.

Clients seek therapy for many reasons. Some want help managing panic attacks, irritability, or persistent stress. Others are working through past experiences, relationship problems, or difficulty coping with change. I also work with teens and families facing conflict, academic pressure, or behavioral concerns.

Whether you’re looking for short-term support or longer-term treatment, I’ll work with you to make sure therapy is useful, focused, and aligned with your goals.
