Hi, I’m Dr. D. I help high-achieving professionals, executives, healthcare workers, first responders, ethnic minorities and indigenous people who are often successful in their careers but feel stuck or dissatisfied in other areas of life. Many clients struggle with burnout, trauma, anxiety, depression, or recurring patterns that interfere with work, relationships, or daily routines. I know what it feels like to face these challenges—and I bring both personal insight and professional expertise to help you get unstuck and reclaim your life. I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, an MS in Applied Psychology, and an MA in Professional Counseling. My integrative, trauma-informed approach combines Psychodynamic therapy (PD), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). This approach helps clients identify unhelpful patterns, leverage existing strengths, and implement actionable strategies for real-world, lasting change. I take a direct, no-nonsense approach, ideal for clients who are ready to take action immediately. Therapy starts in the very first session—you’ll leave with clarity, insight, and actionable steps toward personal growth, healing, and wholeness.

From an early age, I discovered a strong passion for helping others. During high school, I was deeply influenced by my favorite teacher, a student of renowned psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg, best known for his theory on the stages of moral development. Her mentorship inspired me to pursue a career in the helping professions, where I could make a meaningful impact on the lives of others. I went on to earn my undergraduate degree in Human Services with a minor in Gerontology, laying the foundation for a career focused on compassion, advocacy, and evidence-based practice. Over the years, I have specialized in working with individuals who have experienced various forms of trauma, including emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. In my clinical work, I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Multidimensional Family Therapy (MDFT), and supportive counseling. My approach is grounded in empathy, cultural sensitivity, and a commitment to fostering resilience and personal growth.

I value authenticity, empathy, and self-awareness, both for myself, my clients, and as a critical part of the therapeutic process (I also take advantage of the healing power of laughter whenever possible!).

My name is Stephanie (or Stevie, either is fine) and I have been providing therapy in NJ exclusively via telehealth for about the last 5 years (prior to that, in person). I have a deep passion and respect for the power of therapy to change lives, which I have been privileged to witness in my work with clients, as well as in my personal life, both through the consistent use of therapy as part of my own self-care, as well as having spent the last 20 years raising two children with special needs. If you have been struggling with symptoms of depression or anxiety, particularly if they are related to a traumatic experience, I would love the opportunity to work with you to reduce your symptoms and help you experience a present that is not overshadowed by your past. I love working with women ages 20 to 30-something who are still in academia or just starting out in their careers, but also love working with women of any age. I frequently work with survivors of child sexual abuse, as well as those struggling with issues related to self-worth, but work with other conditions as well.

I have experience with many different types of clients including those with "non-traditional" families and relationships. I am a married father of 5 children. In my spare time I like to watch horror movies and listen to heavy music. I pride myself on being well rounded and accepting.

I am a licensed psychotherapist in the state of New York with eight years of professional experience supporting adults navigating stress, anxiety, anger management, life transitions, trauma, ADHD, addiction, and the emotional impact of domestic violence.

I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming, especially when life feels heavy or uncertain. My role is to provide a safe, open, and judgment-free environment where you can process your thoughts and emotions freely. Together, we will explore your story, identify what’s getting in the way, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, balanced, and fulfilling.

You may be the person everyone depends on — the caregiver, professional, parent, ministry leader, or helper — yet internally you feel emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck. Perhaps you are grieving a loss, navigating burnout, struggling with depression or anxiety, carrying unresolved trauma, or quietly trying to hold everything together while feeling alone inside. I provide emotionally safe, psychologically grounded counseling for adults, adolescents, couples, caregivers, clergy, and high-functioning individuals seeking healing, clarity, and support during difficult seasons of life. As both a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Catholic priest with a PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Connecticut, I bring together evidence-based therapy with compassionate human and pastoral insight. For clients who desire it, spirituality and faith can thoughtfully become part of the healing process. For others, therapy may remain fully focused on emotional and psychological care. My approach is compassionate, reflective, practical, and deeply respectful of each client’s background, values, and lived experiences. Together, we work toward helping you: . process grief and emotional pain, . manage anxiety, depression, and stress, . heal from burnout and trauma, . strengthen emotional boundaries, . improve relationships and communication, . reconnect with your sense of identity and peace, . and move toward meaningful and lasting change. You do not have to carry everything alone anymore.

I’m Osvaldo Santiago, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Connecticut, with over 10 years of experience supporting adults on their path toward greater clarity, healing, and self-acceptance. My work is grounded in the belief that therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen, safe, and empowered, especially if you’ve felt overlooked, misunderstood, or disconnected in other parts of your life. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. I bring a calm, nonjudgmental presence to the therapy room, and I meet you where you are- whether you’re navigating anxiety, cultural identity stress, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, life transitions, or past trauma. In sessions, I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Person-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. These approaches offer structure and flexibility, helping us identify what’s getting in the way and build tools to support your growth and well-being. That said, I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all model, I stay adaptable and responsive to what you need most in the moment. Outside of therapy, I value the same things I support my clients in cultivating: meaningful relationships, mindfulness, resilience, and space to breathe. I believe in showing up fully, both as a clinician and as a human being, and I would be honored to walk alongside you as you navigate whatever comes next.

Do you find yourself thinking... "I overthink everything." "I care too much about what people think." "I'm always expecting the worst." "I have no confidence." "I can't stop worrying." If those thoughts sound familiar, you're not alone. Living with anxiety can feel exhausting. You may replay conversations long after they're over, doubt your decisions, avoid speaking up, or constantly wonder if you're "good enough." Even when life seems to be going well, your mind doesn't seem to turn off. I specialize in anxiety, self-doubt, social anxiety, and chronic overthinking. Together, we'll work to quiet your inner critic, challenge anxious thought patterns, build lasting confidence, and help you feel more at peace in your everyday life. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel understood while learning practical tools to create meaningful, lasting change.

Life often hands us challenges that create obstacles to realizing one's fullest potential. Life is unpredictable, and making sense of it and the world around us can be confusing. At times, we need help. We can even start to believe that change isn't possible. Throughout the counseling process, I help individuals find resolution to a wide range of personal concerns, crises, and psychological issues. My approach to counseling balances compassion, and safety while working to find peace from all the challenges that life brings. My style is authentic and practical - I focus on helping you discover your strengths. I listen attentively to your stories with non-judgmental empathy and acceptance. I provide ongoing support with therapeutic insight and expertise in a confidential setting. With a special interest in working with folks struggling with substance abuse issues, I have a great deal of experience in the Substance Abuse & Recovery world. I also enjoy working with older individuals looking to find new values as they move into retirement.
