About My Clients

I work with adults 18+ that suffer from various anxiety disorders, OCD and eating disorders. I see clients that struggle with self-confidence and self worth issues. I also am passionate about helping people through various life stages such as job changes or divorce. Please view my practice's website: Clear Light Therapy www.danacolthart.com We look forward to helping you.

My Background and Approach

I’m the founder of Clear Light Therapy, a specialized practice for anxiety, OCD, phobias, panic, and eating disorders in New Jersey. I work with people who feel trapped in relentless “what if” thoughts, intrusive fears, panic symptoms, and avoidance that slowly shrinks their world. Many of my clients have tried traditional talk therapy and coping skills without lasting relief. My work is grounded in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—evidence-based approaches that retrain the brain’s fear system, reduce compulsions, and help clients build a new relationship with anxiety instead of fighting it. Clear Light Therapy serves adults throughout Bergen County, Monmouth County, and all of New Jersey via virtual therapy.

More About the People We Treat

We work with adults struggling with anxiety, OCD, panic, phobias, and eating disorders who feel exhausted by their own minds. Many experience constant overthinking, intrusive or unwanted thoughts, reassurance-seeking that never lasts, and intense physical anxiety symptoms like racing heart, dizziness, nausea, or shortness of breath. Others feel trapped in compulsions, avoidance, or rigid food rules, terrified of losing control or making the “wrong” choice. Relationships, work, and daily life often suffer as anxiety quietly takes over decisions. If your world has been shrinking, your thoughts feel louder than your values, or fear is running your life despite your best efforts—you’re exactly who we help.
