ABOUT TAKAKO KOMATSUZAKI, ADVANCED NURSE PRACTITIONER
Takako “Taki” Komatsuzaki offers comprehensive, patient-centered psychiatric medication management, strengthening Live Well Psychology Center’s ability to offer integrated care. She brings advanced training in psychopharmacology and extensive experience working within multidisciplinary behavioral health teams, allowing her to collaborate seamlessly with psychologists, therapists, and primary care providers in support of shared patients. Her approach emphasizes careful diagnostic formulation, evidence-based prescribing, and ongoing measurement of outcomes. Medication decisions are thoughtful, transparent, and grounded in current best practices.
Clinical Expertise
Taki Komatsuzaki is skilled in performing thorough psychiatric evaluations, differentiating between mood, anxiety, psychotic, trauma-related, and neurocognitive conditions, and integrating medical, developmental, and psychosocial history into each treatment plan. She routinely orders and interprets relevant laboratory tests and other medical data to rule out medical causes of psychiatric symptoms and to monitor medication safety, including metabolic parameters, cardiac risk, and organ function when indicated. Her prescribing practice focuses on matching the least intensive, safest effective intervention to each patient’s needs, prioritizing monotherapy when possible and using polypharmacy only when clearly justified. She is experienced with antidepressants, anxiolytics, mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and sleep medications, and she integrates non-pharmacologic strategies—such as lifestyle, psychotherapy, and behavioral interventions—into every medication discussion.
Integrated Care
Taki Komatsuzaki provides timely written feedback after evaluations and follow-ups, offers case consultations, and participates in team meetings and care conferences to support shared decision-making and coordinated treatment. Her style is accessible and educational: she spends time explaining diagnoses, mechanisms of action, benefits, risks, and alternatives so patients feel informed and empowered rather than “done to.” This emphasis on psychoeducation improves engagement, reduces medication ambivalence, and supports adherence, which in turn enhances therapy outcomes and overall functioning.
EDUCATION & QUALIFICATIONS
Takako Komatsuzaki APRN
• Master of Science in Nursing, Family Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Program, Fairleigh Dickinson University.
• Bachelor of Science in Nursing, William Paterson University, Cum Laude.
• Master of Arts in Physical Education, Montclair State University.
• Bachelor of Science in Human Performance, University of Southern Mississippi.
• Board-Certified Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) since 2016, with Advanced Practice Nurse licensure and full prescriptive authority in New Jersey, including DEA and CDS registrations since 2017.
SERVICES
With each individual, couple or family, Live Well Psychology Center professionals customize the approach based on the identified problem, individual needs and what science has shown to have the best clinical results. We collaborate with medical doctors and other professionals where appropriate, but only with the client(s) written consent.
INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR ADULTS
Live Well Psychology Center offers expertise in proper diagnosis and treatment for an array of emotional, life and and behavioral issues. With warmth and with a respect for the latest psychology research and literature, we tailor our approach to each client’s individual needs and goals.
​
PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR CHILDREN & TEENAGERS
Live Well Psychology Center requires and values family participation for children under 18. The first session must include at least one parent. The second session is a family session (the household). The third session will be determined based on findings in the first two sessions and may involve the child or teenager coming in individually.
​
DIALECTICAL BEHAVIORAL THERAPY (DBT) Skills Group for Teens
This group is for teens ages 14-17 who have a difficult time regulating emotions and behavior, such as those struggling with impulse control, interpersonal relationships and self-image. The goal is to help these teens change behavioral, emotional, thinking, and interpersonal patterns so they can feel more confident and in control of their life. The next group begins the first Thursday of October.
If you are interested in learning more about this group and/or joining this group, please contact Brittany Wool, LPC at Office: 973-726-5200 Cell: 973-600-1532 or Email: boverland314@gmail.com.
PSYCHOTHERAPY FOR FAMILIES
& COUPLES
At times it is wise to seek and invest in a professional to help us work toward greater emotional connectedness, understanding and harmony as a family or couple. Family systems psychology, attachment / emotional focused theories and cognitive behavioral therapy are utilized for couples and families.
BRIEF FAMILY DIAGNOSIS
Dr. Miller Clark offers a two session “Family Health” evaluation which concludes with a diagnosis and recommended next steps for changes for families who would like professional advice on how to move on their own toward greater harmony and tranquility without participating in extended psychotherapy.
​
BARIATRIC SURGERY EVALUATIONS
Individuals who are considering or have already begun the process of scheduling bariatric surgery must be cleared psychologically before the surgery can be performed. This evaluation is done over two sessions. Many aspects of an individual’s life are taken into account in order for the surgeon to understand the patient. Dr. Keller underwent bariatric surgery in 2008, so can answer many questions in addition to the evaluation. After surgery counseling is also available.
​
​
VETERAN SERVICES
Therapy is offered for veterans who are looking for individual and/or group therapy outside the VA system. If a C&P DBQ form needs to be completed, Dr. Keller can provide one for the veteran to take to their C&P evaluation to facilitate a prompter resolution. She worked for the VA for five years so is familiar with many issues that veterans encounter, whether they served in a combat zone or not.
