I'm licensed in both NJ and PA. I have over 20 years experience helping adults, both individually and couples feeling overwhelmed, alone, stressed, sad or worried. I offer support as we work through feelings of anxiety, depression, isolation, and stress related to work, life changes, loss, transitions, identity, health challenges, family and relationship issues. With a warm, empathetic, inclusive approach, you will feel supported as we navigate the challenges in relationships (colleagues, friends, marriage, significant others, family) as well as from caregiving responsibilities (to children, spouse, and aging parents.) I work with individuals, couples, gender, ethnic, LGBTQ and racially diverse clients. All sessions are virtual, in the comfort of your own home. Reach out to me and I will support you through the challenges of life.

You deserve a space where you can breathe and speak honestly. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and focused on truly understanding what you’re carrying. I’ve been in the mental health field for 15 years, supporting people through anxiety, depression, ADHD, identity questions, trauma histories, burnout, relationship conflict, and life transitions. I also have extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, individuals who’ve been trafficked, people experiencing homelessness, and those with intellectual or developmental disabilities. I’m an attentive therapist who listens for the little things that matter. Together we slow things down, explore what’s underneath the stress, and build practical tools you can use outside the session. I draw from Motivational Interviewing, CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused approaches — not in a rigid, scripted way, but in a way that actually fits your life. Therapy with me is honest, collaborative, and judgment-free. You don’t need to show up perfect. You just need to show up as you. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or ready for change, I’d be honored to support you.

Being a mom of four myself, I know how easy it is to put everyone else first and lose sight of your own needs. Life doesn’t pause when you’re overwhelmed, anxious, or stretched too thin—and sometimes it feels impossible to catch your breath, let alone take care of yourself. That's where therapy comes in. With over 14 years of experience, I bring both professional expertise and personal understanding to the work I do. I use evidence-based approaches that are proven to help create lasting results.

I’m Moshe Wax, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). My path to becoming a therapist grew from my own healing journey and a deep belief in people’s capacity for growth, resilience, and change. Experiencing therapy firsthand shaped not only my professional direction, but also how I show up with clients. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded. I aim to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and safe to be yourself—without pressure or judgment. I believe therapy works best when it is both reflective and practical, offering insight alongside tools you can use in everyday life. I see therapy as a partnership guided by your goals, values, and pace.

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.

Through both personal and professional experience, I understand how overwhelming life can feel when you know something needs to change but aren’t sure where to start. It can be scary and overwhelming, but with guidance it’s possible to make changes that will feel exciting and empowering. I am skilled working with teens and young adults who are just starting to explore themselves and their place in the world, individuals and families navigating and adjusting to life changes, managing interpersonal relationships, reinventing yourself and managing the expectations you’ve set and finding who you want to be when you grow up. It’s so easy to think that we’re stuck in the situations we find ourselves in but I promise you that you can rewrite your story. Our time together will be an hour in your week where you can drop your mask in a safe space without fear of judgment. By allowing yourself to feel all your feelings we can break down whatever is holding you back to help you to build confidence, find clarity and the direction you’ve been searching for. I’m excited for us to get started.

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.

Hi, I’m Tiffany! For over 10 years, I’ve been holding space for people to show up as they are—no masks, no apologies. I work with folks dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and stress. I’d be honored to walk alongside you on this journey so you feel truly seen, supported, and never alone. My path to becoming a mental health provider started with a deep curiosity about the mind and a genuine desire to help people heal. Along the way, I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and gained experience in places like crisis centers, outpatient programs, and partial care—working with people from all walks of life. Over time, I found myself drawn to a more holistic approach to healing, which led me to become a yoga teacher and begin blending mindfulness, movement, and evidence-based tools like CBT and ACT into my work. I truly believe in the power of the mind-body connection. My goal is to support you in rebuilding self-love, resilience, and trust in your ability to navigate life and thrive.

Hello I often hear clients say, “I don’t even know where to start” when they first begin therapy. I understand that feeling. The first step is to make sense of what’s happened in your life in order to start to tackle the issues and ultimately make some changes. I am a seasoned therapist with 17 years experience helping adult clients find their own inner wisdom and strength to resolve issues in their lives. It feels burdensome to rely on friends and family to help us through difficult life challenges. The greatest joy for me as a therapist is to be able to provide a safe space where clients feel unconditionally accepted and heard without judgement. Therapy is a collaborative process where the client and therapist work together to explore and identify barriers which prevent resolution. I believe that the therapeutic alliance between client and provider is key to a successful outcome. I use psychodynamic, solution focused and client centered approaches to help clients gain insight, identify barriers and foster empowerment to make changes and resolve issues.

"Hello, I'm a License Professional counselor based in New Jersey, and I have had the privilege of working as a mental health counselor for the past 17 years. Throughout my career, I have focused on providing support and empowerment to individuals facing a range of challenges in outpatient settings. My journey in mental health began with a deep commitment to helping trauma and abuse victims find healing and reclaim their lives. Over the years, I have worked extensively with survivors, offering compassionate and evidence-based interventions to help them navigate their trauma and foster resilience. In addition to trauma work, I have also been dedicated to serving individuals with a range of mental health struggles. One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been witnessing the transformative power of mental health empowerment. I believe strongly in the importance of empowering individuals to take an active role in their healing journey, fostering a sense of agency, self-worth, and hope for the future. My dedication to mental health empowerment extends beyond the therapy room. I am deeply involved in community outreach efforts, advocacy work, and initiatives aimed at destigmatizing mental health issues and promoting access to quality care for all. I am excited to continue this journey of empowerment and impact, and I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you on your own path to mental well-being.

Life transitions, relationships in flux, maybe you haven't felt like yourself recently. Navigating hard emotions that keep you up a night, or preoccupy thinking, might be holding you back from enjoying activities and relationships you once did. Reasons for seeking therapy are unique and individual to you. You are deserving of a therapist who will build a space for you to be vulnerable with your story and emotions. Together, we can build a path forward through empathetic processing, acceptance, skill building, and goal planning. Therapy is like a compass, it doesn't provide all the answers, but it provides direction. Focusing on your strengths, presenting problem, and future goals, our time together will be spent targeting false thoughts, realizing potential, and building trust in yourself.

I’m a Certified Anxiety Specialist and LCSW who helps people break free from anxiety, stress, and self-doubt. I don’t just listen, I teach practical skills while working alongside you. My approach is hands-on and collaborative, meaning we work together in each session to understand your challenges, identify patterns, and practice strategies that actually make a difference in your daily life. Anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles can feel overwhelming, exhausting, or even isolating. I know how hard it can be when worry or self-doubt takes over, and I’m here to help you regain a sense of control. Whether you want to feel calmer, more confident, or simply able to handle life’s challenges without being held back, I guide you in building practical tools that are tailored to your unique experiences. I draw from a variety of approaches to meet your needs, including mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and strengths-based strategies. This means we can explore what works best for you, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method. I also include psychoeducation so you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, which helps make the skills we practice more effective. My goal is not just to help you cope, but to empower you to thrive. Therapy with me is an active, engaging process; we talk, reflect, practice, and experiment together. I help clients identify strengths, recognize patterns, and create lasting changes in how they think, feel, and act. If you’re ready to take steps toward feeling more confident, calmer, and capable, I’ll be here every step of the way, providing support, guidance, and practical tools to help you succeed.

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 to expect during your first 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.
