Hello, and welcome. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals through mental health challenges, trauma, substance use concerns, and major life transitions. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish for adults and young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma-related concerns, substance use concerns, and adjustment challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. Together, we will explore your experiences, identify your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and work toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you. As a bilingual therapist, I understand how culture, family relationships, immigration experiences, and balancing multiple identities can impact emotional well-being. For clients who would like to incorporate their faith into therapy, I also offer Christian faith-integrated counseling that combines spiritual values with evidence-based clinical approaches. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult transition, healing from past experiences, or seeking greater emotional balance, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you in moving forward.

Welcome, and come as you are. I believe that meaningful change begins with understanding yourself on a deeper level. Many of the struggles we experience in adulthood, whether in relationships, self-worth, anxiety, trauma, communication, or life satisfaction, are shaped by patterns that developed long before we were aware of them. My role is to help you identify those patterns, understand why they exist, and create lasting change rather than simply managing symptoms.

*Note: 7pm slot for Wednesday is for biweekly sessions* Hello! My name is Rukiya and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in New Jersey. Professionally I have been working as an outpatient clinician in community mental health for the past five years and working in the field for the past 8 years. I work with adults from different communities who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, stress, identity concerns, and self-esteem. My approach is person-centered and collaborative, grounded in the belief that individuals are the experts of their own experiences. I help clients to reconnect with themselves and their communities at their own pace. Personally, I went into this field wanting to understand myself more and others around me. What came out of it was finding myself, finding community, and finding the language to name things that were happening to me and around me. I believe people are the experts of themselves and I get the honor to hold space and help connect the dots. Outside of Therapy I am a writer and a poet. I am a former peer educator. I'm passionate about creating a space where someone can find the best version of themselves because it was a gift that was given to me. Also, fan of basketball and Women's sports. To learn more about me and my approach I have website innerwebtherapy.com where I also share resources for building support, growth, and community.

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.

Hi. I'm Steve. Do you ever wonder why, no matter how many different things you've tried, you fall back into old behaviors that hurt you and/or those you love? Do you wonder why your emotions take over and leave you feeling incapable or overwhelmed? Do your emotions get in the way of effectively communicating when it matters the most? We all face questions like this, and the most fulfilling part of my work is helping people like you find answers to those questions. I don’t have any “one-size-fits-all” solutions, but together we will work to identify what drives your responses and what you can do to make lasting changes. We will work to help you anticipate and prevent issues before they appear, to feel emotional intensity rising and calm it down, and to exit stressful situations before doing or saying something you’ll regret. I don’t believe that our worst moments define us. I DO believe that each of us is capable of overcoming past struggles and finding a new path. I look forward to working with you as you try to find yours.

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to invest in your mental health. Are you having a hard time balancing family, work, and life? Are you struggling with avoidance and anxiety about the future? Are you just ready for a change and aren't sure how to make a plan of action? It's difficult to grow without support and even harder at times to find the tools to carve your own path. If you feel ready to explore how to reach your unique potential; let's figure out some goals, what's in the way, and how we can work through those challenges so you can reach your goals. My background in research, crisis care, inpatient, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, in-home therapy, group therapy and outpatient therapy has given me exposure to several forms of therapy. I am currently practicing CBT, DBT, ACT and some elements of other forms of therapy. If you are curious how we could approach your challenges and goals, please reach out and we can discuss options.

You are capable, possibly the most capable person in the room, and yet something keeps getting in the way. Maybe it is the anxiety that follows you into meetings, a career crossroads you cannot seem to resolve, or a voice in your head that is harder on you than anyone else. You do not need someone to tell you what to do. You need a space to get clear, a direct approach that respects your intelligence, and tools that actually work. With 20 years of experience, I help high-functioning adults close the gap between where they are and who they know they can be. If you are feeling stuck, disconnected, or worn down by patterns you cannot seem to break, you are not alone and you are not without options. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or a loss of confidence, I create a judgment-free space where honesty meets action. My approach is warm but direct. We will not just talk about change, we will build it through practical strategies, deeper self-awareness, and a growing ability to trust yourself again.

Hello my name is Gabrielle and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from Rutgers University. I began my career working in a hospital based behavioral health center. This afforded me the opportunity to work with people who struggled with a broad range of concerns and obstacles. As my career moved to private practice I feel my previous role provided me with a wealth of experience. My therapeutic approach is rooted in the desire to help others improve their quality of life. This may encompass family stressors, change in life events and general challenges that can result in depression and/or anxiety. I utilize various techniques, including CBT, to identify barriers and develop coping techniques to work towards change and ultimately feel confident and empowered. Sometimes life can become difficult and stressful. It is okay to need help. Making the decision to begin therapy can feel overwhelming. However, it can also be the first step towards creating change in your life. I am committed to providing a compassionate and empathetic environment in which an individual can share their worries and concerns. Our session will be a place where you know you will be heard. It is a place where we will acknowledge difficult situations and celebrate accomplishments, strengths and growth with the possibility of some tears but plenty of laughter as well.

Hello, I'm Jessica! Whether you're seeking therapy for the first time or have had counseling before, I'm here to support you on your journey. Life is often full of external and internal pressures and challenges that can lead one to feel anxious, depressed, and uncertain, among other distressing feelings. Recognizing these feelings and reaching out for therapeutic support during these times is a sign of strength and resiliency that can go a long way towards growth and healing. Whether you are faced with interpersonal challenges, struggle with your mental health, or battling with addiction, I believe that if you have the desire to improve your life, therapy can be a power tool to do so.

Seeking therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to make that first step feel as comfortable as possible. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where you feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgment. I work with adolescents and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and emotional regulation difficulties. Many of my clients are used to feeling overwhelmed, overthinking, struggling to keep up with responsibilities, or wondering why things that seem easy for others feel so much harder. Together, we'll work to better understand what's contributing to those challenges while building practical skills that fit your life and your goals. I believe therapy is most effective when it is personalized. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor treatment to each client's strengths, experiences, and values. My style is compassionate, direct, and collaborative, balancing support with practical strategies that help you create meaningful and lasting change. As a bilingual therapist, I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and welcome clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. I value creating an inclusive, affirming environment where clients feel respected and understood. Whether you're looking to improve relationships, manage ADHD or anxiety, navigate a difficult transition, or simply gain a better understanding of yourself, you don't have to do it alone. My hope is that you'll leave each session feeling supported, empowered, and equipped with tools you can begin using in your everyday life. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward greater well-being.

I chose the helping profession because I’ve always had a deep sensitivity to people’s emotions and a strong appreciation for how meaningful it is when someone feels truly understood. From early on, I found myself attuned to what people were feeling beneath the surface, and I’ve always valued creating space where those feelings can be acknowledged without judgment. I also understand how heavy it can feel to carry anxiety, stress, or life transitions alone, especially when it seems like there is nowhere to fully put it down. This perspective is what continues to guide my work and my presence with clients. My role is to offer a calm, supportive space where you can slow down and begin to make sense of what you are experiencing. I aim to help you feel less alone in what you are carrying, and more grounded as you sort through it. I believe that healing happens in a relationship, through steady and compassionate support over time. My goal is for you to feel gently supported as you move toward greater clarity, steadiness, and a more grounded sense of yourself.

Hi - my name's Keith Miles! I'm a licensed therapist in NJ, PA, and FL. I do telehealth talk therapy for people living in all 3 states. I imagine you find yourself here because there is something you are struggling with that maybe you could use some support in dealing with. Maybe you feel overwhelmed by difficult emotions, anxiety, or depression. Perhaps you’ve got lots of negative, self-critical, or racing thoughts affecting your self-esteem. It could be that there's aspects of your relationships and social life that you're unhappy with. Life responsibilities like work or school might be stressful or unfulfilling. Maybe you're struggling with your identity, or the heavy weight of what’s happening in our country and the world. Whatever the case may be, it's my job to help you address it and start moving towards a life that feels more worth living. I use my experience and training to help you build insight, process emotions, gain skills, set goals, and take action. I work with gay, queer and trans people, women, and adults of all races, ages and abilities. If you are looking for a safe therapist to be yourself with, we may be a good fit.

Jennifer Moga, LMHC, LPCC, LCC provides online therapy to adults in Florida, Ohio, and New Jersey, specializing in anxiety, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and depression, and accepts both insurance and self-pay clients. 🌿 ABOUT ME: You're capable and dependable, the one others rely on. But internally, your mind rarely slows down. You replay conversations, question decisions, and carry pressure most people don't see. On the outside, you look composed. On the inside, you're tired of overthinking and ready to respond with more clarity and intention instead of reactivity. I work with high-functioning adults managing anxiety, ADHD, or depression who want more than symptom relief. They want practical tools, stronger boundaries, clearer decisions, and steady progress toward an aligned life. Our work is most effective when you're open to reflection and willing to apply what we discuss between sessions. I bring compassion and structure to therapy. Clients describe me as warm and solution-focused: someone who listens deeply, challenges unhelpful beliefs, and provides practical tools for change. Sessions are structured and goal-oriented, supporting steady progress while remaining supportive and appropriately challenging. 📍 AGE & LOCATION REQUIREMENTS: Adults (18–64) in Ohio, Florida, or New Jersey during sessions. I do not treat minors. 🎯 WHAT I TREAT: I specialize in anxiety, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, and depression in adults. 🚫 EXCLUSIONS: Severe trauma, domestic violence, sexual abuse, active substance use, gambling or sex addiction, eating disorders, personality disorders, dissociative disorders, couples or sex therapy. 🔒 SELF-PAY: Designed for clients seeking greater privacy, flexibility, and personalized care without insurance limits. 📌 Rates: Intake $185 | 53-min $150 | 45-min $125 | 30-min $85 📌 Out-of-network reimbursement may be available (not guaranteed). Clients verify benefits. 📌 In-network clients electing self-pay are typically not reimbursed.

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.
