About Me As the sole owner and clinician of Walls Come Tumbling Down, I have spent the past two years building a practice centered on providing compassionate, supportive, and empowering mental health care. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of clinical experience, I understand that beginning therapy can feel both exciting and vulnerable. I am providing compassionate, supportive, and client-centered mental health care. I believe that therapy is a safe space where you can be heard, understood, and empowered to work through life’s challenges while discovering your strengths and purpose. As the sole owner and clinician of Walls Come Tumbling Down for the last 2 years My Ideal Client My ideal client is a woman of Christian faith who may be experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, or other life circumstances that have left her feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from herself. She is ready to grow, heal, and make meaningful changes in her life—mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. My Approach My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, nonjudgmental, and faith-sensitive. I meet each client where she is and work collaboratively to help her develop practical tools, gain insight, strengthen her emotional well-being, and move toward the life she desires. For clients who desire it, I integrate Christian faith and spiritual principles into the therapeutic process while respecting each person’s individual beliefs and journey. I believe that healing is a process, and you do not have to walk through it alone. My goal is to help you recognize your worth, build resilience, strengthen your relationship with yourself and your faith, and create lasting positive change.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably carrying something heavy — and you may have been carrying it longer than you should have had to. I’m glad you’re here. I’m an LMFT licensed in both New York and New Jersey, and I work with adults who are navigating some of life’s most emotionally demanding seasons: parenting stress, relationship strain, depression, ADHD, and the kind of high-functioning exhaustion that doesn’t always look like struggle from the outside but absolutely feels like it. My approach is relational at its core. I believe that healing rarely happens in isolation — it happens in connection. Before any technique or homework assignment, I prioritize building a therapeutic relationship where you actually feel safe enough to be honest. That foundation isn’t just good therapy etiquette; it’s what makes everything else possible. From there, I draw on a range of evidence-based frameworks — attachment theory, CBT, DBT, and person-centered approaches — tailoring the work to what you specifically need rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Some clients need tools and structure. Others need space to process and be witnessed. Most need both, at different moments. I’ve worked with many people who came to therapy after putting it off for a long time — sometimes years. What kept them away was often fear: fear of judgment, fear of being misunderstood, or simply not knowing what therapy was supposed to feel like. I take that seriously. My goal from the very first session is to help you feel less alone in what you’re facing, and more capable of moving through it. You don’t have to have it figured out before you reach out. That’s what we’re here to do together.

Hi there, I am Albert. Do you feel that specific life events have had a great impact on how you are managing and functioning daily? I am a clinician who believes that the past influences the present and future and if trauma has been a part of the human experience the impact on human functioning is even greater. It is my goal to create a safe and caring counseling atmosphere and setting so that the individual feels safe to explore the effect of trauma or any life event(s) that have impacted their life. Clients are encouraged to explore and engage in new aspects of themselves; finding new abilities which increase their positive daily functioning by increasing their living tool kit with new creative and important tools. I utilize evidence-based modalities to address the unique and specific needs of each client and I do so from a trauma-informed perspective. I provide long-term psychotherapy; I also work with clients doing short-term solution-focused therapy that is goal-specific. I completed my master's in counseling in 2005 from New Jersey City University. From 2005 to 2010 I was an associate counselor and upon completion of my supervision hours became a Licensed Practicing Counselor in 2010. I have had experience working in hospitals, outpatient clinics, community outreach and providing in-home therapy services for individuals and families. I have worked treating depression, anxiety, behavior problems, ADHD and issues related to gender identity as well as issues facing couples.

Hi, I’m Jelysa—founder of Take 2 Counseling, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, wife, and mom of two. Being a therapist is a huge part of who I am, but so is my family. Juggling real-life responsibilities, caring for others, and trying to stay grounded in the middle of it all gives me a deep understanding of the daily pressures many of us face—especially young women who are trying to find their footing in a fast-paced world. Growing up as the daughter of a therapist, I was surrounded by empathy, connection, and emotional awareness from an early age. My mom showed me that healing doesn’t come from being perfect—it comes from being present, making space for growth, and learning through our mistakes. She continues to be my role model for resilience and restoration.

I'm a therapist who believes good therapy starts with feeling comfortable, not like you're sitting across from someone with a clipboard. I bring warmth, honesty, and a little casualness to our work together. I'm also neurodivergent myself, so I know firsthand what it's like to navigate a brain that works a little differently. That lived experience makes me a better therapist , not just a more empathetic one, but a more real one. I'm the kind of therapist who will laugh with you, be straight with you, and when you're ready, go to the deeper and harder places right alongside you. With experience spanning from early childhood all the way through older adulthood, I've had the privilege of working with people across every stage of life and across a wide range of needs.

I am an experienced licensed professional counselor who has obtained an MA in Counseling Psychology with a Trauma Focus. Therapy is a personal journey that takes courage to begin. I am here to help you take that first step. I offer personalized online therapy and can help you to overcome your obstacles, reach your goals, create healthy coping tools, process your trauma, and provide a safe space for healing. I combine my understanding, education, and life experiences with a person centered approach to help clients heal from past traumas, navigate through grief and loss, and cope with the everyday stress. When grief, loss, and tragedies happen, we are applauded for our ability to stay strong through the tragedy, but what does being strong mean? Does it mean suppressing your feelings in order to get through the day? Holding back your tears so you can wipe the tears of others? Going about your day like nothing happened? This "strength" is not helping you. This "strength" is hurting you. That tightness in your chest, those swirls in your stomach, constant headaches, aches and pains, and feeling exhausted yet not being able to fall asleep at night, is the "strength" people refer to affecting your body and mind. All of those feelings and thoughts you keep inside, all that "strength," is weighing on your mind and body. True strength is vulnerability and compassion for oneself. The true strength is not numbing to get through the day, the TRUE strength is feeling the uncomfortable emotions, acknowledging the hurtful thoughts, expressing the pain you feel, and talking about the whirlwind of thoughts replaying in your mind. I can offer you a safe and judgment free atmosphere to do just that. You have been there for countless others. Allow me to be there for you.

This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
