Therapists near me in Jersey City, NJ

My name is Ashley Kelly, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and work toward meaningful change. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work, which has provided me with a strong foundation in evidence-based practices and a deep understanding of the emotional, social, and environmental factors that influence well-being. In my practice, I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I work collaboratively with individuals to explore their experiences, build on their strengths, and develop practical tools. Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and it’s okay to have questions or hesitations. You don’t have to figure everything out on your own. If you’ve been thinking about reaching out but haven’t taken that step yet, this is your sign that it’s okay to start the conversation. Whenever you’re ready, I’m here to listen and guide you through the steps.

I’m Pamela Andrews, LCSW and I help clients who are dealing with trauma, anxiety, and/or OCD so they can feel grounded, confident, and in control of their lives again. My clients are often people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted, even when things look “fine” on the outside. Using evidence-based approaches like EMDR and ERP, along with a compassionate, faith-informed lens when desired, I help clients break free from old patterns, calm their nervous systems, and build lives rooted in clarity, peace, and purpose.

Hi, I am Errol Victory, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with the State of New Jersey with over eight years of clinical experience. To seek professional counseling takes tremendous courage and fortitude. You have made the right decision to seek professional help. You are the repository of your narrative, and no one can tell your pain like you can, this platform and forum allows you to share your experience with enormous confidentiality. I am available to assist you in overcoming your challenging thoughts, and emotional, and behavioral struggles.

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.
