Burlington County, NJ     "PRESS RELEASE"

In this time of recession, a new business is being opened catering to the psyche-social needs of individuals and groups by offering services on weekends and evening hours.

“Burlington County Therapy,” a sole proprietor company, will soon be opening its doors to provide residents of Burlington County, psychotherapy services at affordable prices. Pre opening appointments are being scheduled for evening and Saturday and Sunday afternoon hours. She has made access to therapy for individual and group(s) accessible to everyone in need of her services. Individuals no longer have to jeopardize their jobs or their privacy by asking for time off from work to seek help.

Anne Stager MSW LCSW uses the cognitive behavioral therapy model of therapy that she learned at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine. She has been working as a social worker for 31 years. She says that access to quality programs and services has in the past been a stumbling block to residents of the county. Many patients are not available to attend services at other facilities in the area because of their limited hours of operation or program limits.

The Lumberton office is currently being remodeled and advanced appointments are now being scheduled for both individual and groups including addictions. For more information call 609-914-1700 or Info@BurlingtonCounty-Therapy.com
