Currently offering an Cash rate of $40 for those who have insurance in network with Grow Therapy. I am new to Grow Therapy, and it will take 1-3 months (depending on the insurance) for me to be fully credentialed with insurance companies, so this rate allows those with insurance to begin therapy during the credentialing process. I am currently credentialed with Cigna. I absolutely love my job. Each day is a guarantee of growth, realization and learning. Being a therapist has brought ME so much clarity and peace about who I am, and I believe that amplifies success in session. One thing therapy is guaranteed to do for you is provide MORE. More motivation, understanding, perspective, hope, and self-awareness. Whether you struggle with motivating yourself, communicating your feelings to your partner, loneliness, purpose, or bring misunderstood, I will provide a space for you to explore these emotions and with facilitation and compassion.

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.

Taking the first step to seek out therapy is courageous and at times, we do not take a moment to recognize the brave steps that we take day by day. I want my clients to feel empowered and I work hard to help my clients harness their inner strengths and also ways to build their support systems. I believe that therapy is not a one size fits all approach because of this, I make sure to get to know my clients as individuals by taking a deeper look into family background, current relational influences and stressors. It allows me to get a bigger picture of how small changes can help impact larger systems.

Hi, I’m Shakira, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals and families create meaningful change. I provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, build self-awareness, and develop practical tools for personal and relational growth. In my work with individuals, I help clients identify patterns that may be keeping them stuck and guide them toward healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. Whether you’re managing anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship challenges, I focus on helping you gain insight and build the confidence to make positive, lasting changes. With families, my approach centers on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and fostering understanding. I use a systemic perspective to help family members recognize how their interactions impact one another and work together to create new patterns of connection and cooperation. My goal is to help families move from conflict and disconnection toward empathy, balance, and mutual respect. My therapeutic style is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Functional Family Therapy (FFT), along with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. Sessions are tailored to each client’s goals and often include hands-on strategies to apply between sessions for continued progress. I believe growth happens when clients feel safe, heard, and supported. My role is to provide guidance, encouragement, and a structured space for reflection and change. Whether you’re seeking personal healing or stronger family relationships, therapy offers the opportunity to gain clarity, strengthen connections, and live with greater purpose and peace. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward emotional wellness and healthier relationships, I’d be honored to work with you.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals, teens, and families navigate stress, emotional overwhelm, trauma, and major life transitions. Many of the clients I serve are high-functioning, busy, and responsible for everyone else—but silently struggling with anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, or a sense of losing themselves. My goal is to create a safe, warm, and judgment-free space where you can finally exhale, talk openly about your experiences, and gain the emotional tools needed to create meaningful change in your life. I meet clients with compassion, understanding, and practical strategies they can use right away. I believe that healing happens through connection, clarity, and consistent support. I am here to walk beside you as you rediscover your peace, your voice, and your strength.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by New Jersey rather than a city like Newark?

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.

Will my therapist take insurance?

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.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Parenting?

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. For example, your selected specialty, Parenting, is filtering therapists in New Jersey that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

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.

What happens during the first therapy session?

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.
