I found my career as a therapist as a secondary one which has provided exposure to multiple therapeutic settings. My start in community mental health gifted me with a well-rounded, diverse level of training and exposure to the human experience. More importantly, my background reinforced the importance and power of the therapeutic relationship. I am curious, empathetic, affirming, and compassionate. My sense of humor often finds its way into our sessions (as do my dogs, if you're so inclined!). Together, we will map your treatment, so that you are clear as to what to expect, regardless of the intervention. We start at the place you are ready, reinforcing the strengths and resiliency that you already exhibit. Together, we build from there to address what you came in for.. Therapy is hard work, but it is also profoundly full, rewarding and empowering. It's important for me to honor both the challenges and rewards.

Welcome, I'm Shari and I support adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of the individuals I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward, and are looking for a space to better understand themselves and create meaningful change. My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. We’ll talk through what’s been going on in your life, make sense of your thoughts and emotions, and identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I’ll help you slow things down, see things more clearly, and learn ways to manage stress, navigate difficult emotions, and respond differently in challenging situations. The goal is not just to talk, but to help you leave sessions with tools you can actually use in your everyday life. I aim to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and comfortable being yourself, while also being challenged to grow. Together, we work toward increasing clarity, strengthening coping skills, and helping you feel more in control and aligned in your life. My goal is for you to leave sessions feeling more grounded, more confident, and more connected to your sense of peace and purpose.

My experience has taught me the profound value of truly connecting with individuals—walking alongside them as they heal, grow, and realize their full potential. This insight has been instrumental in helping clients develop effective strategies to overcome a wide range of mental health challenges, addictive behaviors, and life transitions, as well as concerns related to both mental and physical well-being. I take a holistic, strengths-based approach to therapy, integrating elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), yoga, mindfulness, and breathwork. I firmly believe that each client’s unique story should shape the therapeutic journey. Clients often leave sessions feeling empowered—with greater confidence, self-esteem, and the motivation to face life’s challenges head-on. My hope is that each person walks back into the world thinking, “I know how to do this day.”

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor working with adults who function well in demanding roles but experience internal strain related to anxiety, ADHD, sleep issues, or sustained stress. Many of my clients are in high-pressure environments such as healthcare, first response, STEM, or other responsibility-heavy fields, and are seeking support that goes beyond surface-level coping. My work is informed by formal training in clinical counseling at the University of Pennsylvania, as well as a research background in STEM fields. This combination shapes a structured, systems-oriented approach that integrates neuroscience, evidence-based therapy, and careful attention to how complex internal patterns develop and persist under pressure. I work with individuals across diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ+ clients, and approach identity as an important part of lived context rather than the problem itself. Therapy is a space for clarity, safety, and meaningful change, especially for those who appear capable on the outside but feel taxed or constrained internally.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in New Jersey. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across New Jersey from Jersey City to Paterson! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in New Jersey.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
