Hello, I'm Cristina Mazzeo! I see so many people who aren’t necessarily unwell, but feel trapped and unable to make progress in their lives. They’re "going through the motions" – and getting caught up in issues that they could actually solve quite easily. It breaks my heart when clients believe they can’t fix their unresolved issues – and that the history handed to them dictates their future. My gift is helping my clients recognize their unique mental strengths and natural skill sets, so they can navigate from the uncomfortable present toward a more empowered future.

Hi there, I'm Theresa.
Do you feel overwhemed, do you feel no matter what you try, or what you do, nothing changes? Are you struggling with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself?
I help indivduals that just feel plan stuck, stuck in their personal life, stuck in problem solving and stuck in this thing we call life. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I love to integrate measurable goals so that you build upon small goals that create change!
Whether you're dealing with feeling overwhelmed, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

I value authenticity, empathy, and self-awareness, both for myself and my clients, and as a critical part of the therapeutic process (I also take advantage of the healing power of laughter whenever possible!). I aim to normalize and validate my clients’ experiences without judgment, and above all, provide the most basic of human needs: to feel seen and heard.
Hi! My name is Stephanie (Stephanie or Stevie is fine) and I have been providing therapy in NJ exclusively via telehealth for about the last 4 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 situations and events from 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.

Hi, I’m Bekah. I want to start by saying that reaching out for help takes courage. Whether or not we work together, I am glad that you are taking the time find a clinician with
whom you feel comfortable.
Do you ever find that you are significantly harsher with yourself than you
would be to a friend or even a stranger? Life is hard enough on its own, yet
sometimes we have a tendency to make it harder for ourselves.
My role is to be there to listen in an unbiased way and help you process your
thoughts to gain a better understanding of a situation and prepare for future
experiences. The process of understanding is very personal, so I will work to use
evidence-based methods that are a good fit for you. Everyone deserves to be heard
and treated as a respected equal, regardless of age or any other factor. We are all
just humans trying to be happy.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I hold licenses in Pennsylvania and New Jersey and specialty certification as a Certified Advanced Drug & Alcohol Counselor and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am a firm believer in everything that happens creates the person. I am a whole life counselor and work with people to explore what it would take to move past the difficult times in life.
I take the time to get to know my clients and have many clients who have been with me for years. That doesn't mean someone will see me every week for the rest of their life. It means client know I am available when they have need. I do have clients who have seen me weekly for years not because they are dependent on me but because they have found benefit in processing their life regularly.
I have had a successful personal practice for years and can offer clients the space and reverence to unpack the most unpleasant things to reorder them in a way they no longer can cause harm as they once did. There is no perfect childhood and it is likely families do the best they can and it may not have filled the needs of their child.
I am happy to take as much time as needed to work through the problem as you understand it.

Collaboratively, I assess the client's concerns, formulate treatment goals, and facilitate the interplay of cognitive, behavioral, and trauma-related factors. Together, we develop a tailored treatment plan that combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness techniques based on the client's specific needs and goals.
Throughout the treatment process, we may engage in various phases, including cognitive restructuring, trauma processing with EMDR, and ongoing mindfulness practices to support emotional regulation and integration. Clients are equipped with practical skills and mindfulness exercises to reinforce therapeutic gains between sessions.
