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.

After working in a community mental health clinic for 12 years, the year 2020 changed the course of my career. For the last 4 years I have been working in private practice and meeting people that still today are being impacted by the changes we have faced in just these few short years. Since the COVID-19 pandemic had such an enormous impact on how we lived our daily lives, many of the underlying mental health issues that were present prior to the pandemic, have now risen to the surface and been causing all sorts of havoc. If you are experiencing increased anxiety, depression, struggling with financial hardship, substance abuse or coping with past trauma, therapy is a place to start on the road to learning to cope with this life we are given and this situation we have been forced to persevere through. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and complex trauma. I also have experience working with sexual assault, childhood trauma and emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and direct.

Hello! I changed careers midlife from administrative social services to direct care as a therapist. I graduated from University of Southern California in 2015 with my master of social work degree. I really missed having more interaction with people, and knew there was more to life than paperwork. We all go through difficult times, and I believe it's the support we have that makes all the difference how we come out of tough times. Therapy sessions are a private place to be vulnerable and release stressful thoughts and emotions. I have five years experience working at a mental health urgent care where I met with thousands of people who had pushed themselves to the brink of their strength and needed support. At this facility I treated PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, depression, psychosis. I interned as a student in the crisis area of a hospital emergency room, a really rewarding opportunity for me. I also interned at a shelter for women with addiction, domestic violence and substance abuse issues.

As a seasoned therapist with diverse experience across community mental health, intensive treatments, corrections, and outpatient therapy settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to my practice. My journey has been shaped by working with clients navigating complex life transitions and those who may feel 'lost' in their journey. With a client-centered approach, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore their challenges, discover their strengths, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth. Together, we will work collaboratively to navigate the uncertainties of life and create a path towards healing and fulfillment.

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.
