My Story

Her life mission is to help women be all that they can be.

Maureen Kritzer-Lange is a Psychoanalyst in private practice for the past 25 years. Her practice focuses primarily on women’s issues and includes working with eating disorders, body image and self esteem, sexuality, life transitions, anxiety and depression.

She graduated from the Newhouse School of Public Communications and The School of Human Development at Syracuse University with a BS in Communications and Human Development. She went on to attend New York University where she graduated with a Masters degree in Social Work. She is certified as a Psychoanalyst through the Center for Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis of New Jersey (CPPNJ) where she is also a member of the teaching faculty. She has a Certificate in Eating Disorders, Compulsions and Addictions from the William Alanson White Institute in New York.

In addition to her private practice, Maureen served as the President of the Eating Disorders Association of New Jersey. She speaks frequently to professional organizations and is active on social media on issues associated with body image and self esteem, eating disorders and sexuality.

I became a therapist to help others navigate the difficult and challenging course of life and particularly to help women overcome the serious life threatening implications of dealing with eating disorders.

My life mission is to help women be all that they can be – increase their self esteem, help them find their voice and find freedom from shame, guilt and negativity.

I inspire, empower, enlighten, encourage, energize, teach, coach and role model behaviors.

Patients praise me for my consistency, empathy, kindness, even tempered nature, helpfulness, thoughtfulness, authenticity, caring, generosity, elegance, class and style.

I give women their lives back.
