I’m Jinese Haskins, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to creating a safe and authentic space where healing feels possible. My goal is to help clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to create lasting change at their own pace and in their own way.

I offer high-quality, evidence-based therapy that is tailored to you: a combination of insights, practical tools, and a deeper understanding of your attachment style will be incorporated into your therapy. Because one size does not fit all, your therapy will include consistent check-ins to understand what is working well, which modalities you prefer, and which goals are most important to you.

If you want someone to hold you accountable, being direct and honest and the mirror to help see yourself clearly....then you found the right therapist.

Rita LaBrew, LMFT, licensed in New York and New Jersey, brings extensive experience in foster care, child welfare, private practice, and telehealth. I provide a collaborative, thoughtful therapy experience grounded in clinical expertise and evidence-informed care. Together, we'll work toward greater insight, emotional resilience, and meaningful, lasting change. I work with adults who are ready to move beyond simply managing symptoms and are willing to explore the deeper patterns shaping their lives. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, family-of-origin concerns, life transitions, or longstanding emotional patterns, therapy offers an opportunity to understand not only what you're experiencing, but why. My approach is primarily psychodynamic, integrating psychoeducation to help make complex emotional experiences more understandable and practical. Together, we explore how early relationships, unconscious patterns, protective roles, and present-day experiences influence your emotions, relationships, and decisions. As insight grows, clients often find themselves responding to life's challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and intention. Clients often describe my style as thoughtful, direct, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where curiosity replaces self-criticism, where difficult experiences can be understood without judgment, and where lasting change develops through deeper self-awareness rather than temporary solutions. My practice is best suited for adults seeking ongoing outpatient psychotherapy and is not a fit for higher-acuity or crisis-focused care. I may refer clients whose needs would be better served by a higher level of care, specialized treatment, or services outside my scope of practice. Please note that I do not provide documentation or written support for court, custody, disability, or other legal matters, and my practice is not a fit for individuals seeking therapy primarily for court-related issues. My goal is always to help clients find the care that best meets their needs.

There is a moment in every person’s story when something says, “I can’t keep doing this the same way.” That moment matters. It may be quiet, messy, unexpected, or long overdue—but it can also be the beginning of something different. After more than 20 years in behavioral health and over 11 years as a clinician, I’ve learned that therapy is not about having all the answers. It’s about having a place to stop, breathe, tell the truth about where you are, and discover where you want to go next.

From the outside, it may look like you have it all. You've built a successful career, business, or family, yet something still feels off. You may feel disconnected, misunderstood, stressed, or simply not as fulfilled as you expected to be. You might even find yourself wondering, "Why doesn't this feel the way I thought it would?" If that resonates with you, you're not alone. Since 2007, I've helped individuals and couples better understand themselves by uncovering the relationship blind spots that quietly shape every area of their lives—from the relationship they have with themselves to the relationships they have with the people they love. Many of my clients don't come to therapy because they're falling apart. They come because they know they're capable of experiencing more in life. More love. More connection. More peace. More fulfillment. They simply don't know what's getting in the way. Together, we'll identify the patterns that may be keeping you stuck so you can begin creating the life and relationships you've been wanting all along. My practice is intentionally small and built around a concierge model of care that differs from traditional in-network therapy. I work best with clients who are ready to invest in themselves through a committed, integrative process rather than casual weekly check-ins.

Born in Hong Kong and raised in Miami, Fl, my passion for helping others came at an early age.

I am a licensed mental health therapist with many years of experience providing therapy to individuals, adolescents, groups, and occasionally couples in various settings. My experience has led me to connect with many individuals at different phases in their lives who wanted to change something but didn't know how. I have worked with various populations from so many backgrounds, and all that stuck out to me was the disfranchised. A person losing their sense of autonomy and self always left me with that question, "Can I do more?" In my journey as a provider, I want to uplift my clients and remind them they have always had a voice and power that is waiting.

In my practice I value wellness for the mind and body. A comfortable and safe environment are my priorities, as we work towards meaningful personal and relational changes together. I rely heavily on body and nervous system focused practices, mindfulness and intentionality, as well as healing, relational, and experiential strategies.

I help people to feel better and live with more bliss. I am also experienced and supportive of LGBTQ+ issues.

I'm a dedicated and compassionate psychotherapist with a strong focus on treating the whole person. With a deep understanding of the impact of trauma and the importance of cultural awareness, I'm committed to providing empathetic and effective support for individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences. As a trauma-focused practitioner, I'm skilled in assessing and addressing the unique needs of my clients while fostering a safe and nurturing therapeutic environment. I value the importance of cultural awareness in her practice, enabling her to provide tailored and respectful care to individuals from all walks of life.
