Hi, I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist from New Jersey (LCSW). I graduated from Rutgers University in 2015 and since then, I have worked in various clinical settings, including corporate, government and private practice. I am also clinical supervisor, offering my experience to new clinicians when needed. I enjoy working with adolescents 14 years and older to adults of all ages, including seniors.
My specialty is Borderline Personality Disorder; I am certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I am passionate about helping individuals develop a "life worth living" as quoted by Marsha Linehan. I enjoy working with complex individuals who often experience difficulty with strong emotions, self-harm and relationship and identity problems. Highly Sensitive People are often misunderstood, resulting in emotional pain.
I am also trained in Trauma Focused -CBT and other treatment modalities. I have been successful in helping individuals overcome phobias, panic attacks, social anxiety, trauma and self-injury. I have extensive experience treating various individuals struggling with general Anxiety/Depression, ADHD and various co-occurring/mood and personality disorders.
I believe in collaboration with clients, not directives. My style is genuine and empathetic while being solution-focused. Perhaps you are struggling with serious mental health challenges or, you may simply want to learn how to improve your life, or maybe you feel stuck and aren't quite sure what you need or what you are feeling. Regardless, we can figure it out together.
I offer a free phone consultation to help determine comfortability, goodness of fit and to answer any questions, etc. before booking.
**Please note: I am licensed to practice in the state of New Jersey. I only provide teletherapy to individuals 14 years and older. If you need a time and don't see it, please message me. I'll do my best to accommodate you.**

You hold it together for everyone — at work, at home, in your relationships — but the weight of it is getting harder to carry. Maybe anxiety keeps your mind racing at 2 a.m., or you're stuck in patterns with substances or behaviors that started as coping but now feel like a trap. Maybe grief, trauma, or a painful chapter you thought you'd moved past keeps surfacing when you least expect it.
I'm Rovin Chonielall, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Addiction Specialist with 15 years of experience helping adults find their footing when life feels unmanageable. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction and recovery, and the kind of emotional exhaustion that builds up when you've been running on autopilot for too long.
My approach is direct, holistic, and grounded in what actually works. I draw on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you build skills for managing intense emotions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge the thought patterns keeping you stuck, and Motivational Interviewing to help you connect with your own reasons for change — especially when motivation feels low. I also incorporate mindfulness and solution-focused techniques, because sustainable growth happens when you learn to be present with yourself, not just push through.
What my clients tell me is that therapy with me feels different — honest without being harsh, structured without being rigid. I'm not going to just nod along. I'll meet you where you are, ask the questions that matter, and help you build a life that actually reflects who you want to be.
If you're ready to stop going through the motions and start doing the real work, I'd like to help.

Hi, I'm Assal. I've been a therapist for 13 years, helping young adults and adults navigate life transitions, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, and the stress that comes with balancing life's many demands.
Many of my clients come to therapy during periods of change or uncertainty. They may be starting college, launching a career, navigating dating and relationships, working through unhealthy relationship patterns, adjusting to parenthood, caring for family members, or questioning what they want from the next chapter of life. Others feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and are looking to regain a sense of confidence, direction, and purpose.
My goal is to provide a space where you feel comfortable being yourself and talking openly about what's really going on. Together, we'll explore the patterns, experiences, and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck, while building on your strengths and helping you move toward the life you want.

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.

I believe good therapy should be both meaningful and practical. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic approaches, but I don't believe therapy should feel like a one-size-fits-all formula. And yes, I believe there is room for humor in therapy. Logic, compassion, curiosity, and a healthy dose of humor are some of the tools I bring.

Hi there! I'm Carolyn, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in New Jersey, and I want you to know that I really see you; your struggles, your hopes, your raw emotions. With over 18 years of heartfelt experience, I've had the pleasure of walking alongside adults and adolescents 16 and older, as they navigate life's challenges; anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, ADHD, and those overwhelming life transitions that can leave us feeling lost or disconnected. If you're battling feelings of anxiety, loneliness, or just going through the motion’s day after day, please know, you are not alone. These feelings are common, and what you're going through really matters. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you can finally feel truly heard from our very first conversation. I draw from a diverse range of therapeutic approaches; cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-informed techniques, solution-focused, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing; to craft a path that feels right for you. I believe therapy should be about connection, understanding, and genuine growth, not just techniques. I get how tough it is to stay motivated, manage complicated emotions, build authentic connections, or keep your routines intact. But please remember, you're stronger than you realize, and you don’t have to face these struggles alone. I’m here to walk with you, to support and empower you as we uncover the strengths you already possess. Together, we can face any challenge, celebrate our strengths, inspire hope, and create a more satisfying and meaningful life.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and comfortable showing up as themselves. My approach is warm, collaborative, nonjudgmental, and grounded in authenticity. I strive to create a space where clients can be honest about the parts of themselves they may feel embarrassed, overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck with—without fear of criticism or shame. I work with adults navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, identity exploration, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that no longer feel helpful or sustainable. Many of my clients are insightful and self-aware but find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from themselves, or repeating cycles they want to better understand and change. My style blends practical skill-building with deeper emotional exploration. I draw from approaches including CBT, DBT, person-centered, existential, and motivational techniques to help clients increase self-awareness, develop healthier coping strategies, improve communication and boundaries, and better understand the underlying experiences shaping their current struggles. I value humor, honesty, curiosity, and creating a therapeutic relationship that feels human, not overly clinical or rigid. As a queer and affirming therapist, I’m especially passionate about creating a supportive environment for LGBTQ+ clients and anyone who has felt misunderstood, pressured to mask parts of themselves, or uncertain about where they fit. Whether you are looking for insight, coping tools, emotional support, or meaningful change, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

I take the time to get to know my clients and have many clients who have been with me for years. That doesn't mean someone will see me every week for the rest of their life. It means client know I am available when they have need. I do have clients who have seen me weekly for years not because they are dependent on me but because they have found benefit in processing their life regularly.
I have had a successful personal practice for years and can offer clients the space and reverence to unpack the most unpleasant things to reorder them in a way they no longer can cause harm as they once did. There is no perfect childhood and it is likely families do the best they can and it may not have filled the needs of their child.

"True success is the predictable result of hard work, patience, sacrifice & learning put into practice everyday." - Unknown
Hey there! Thank you for sliding on past my profile and the above quote is essential to not only my mindset in how I approach everyday as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) but also how I want to assist in creating a space for my clients. I am currently based in Pennsylvania & have over 10 years of experience working with an array of clients. I have helped many from young adults to older adults take a deep dive within themselves to challenge thoughts, perspectives and beliefs that create a mental and emotional limitation on becoming a more empowered and improved version of themselves. My goal is to respectfully challenge and guide clientele to look within themselves since they are the best expert on their own life and choices so that they can discover the innate skills and abilities that can take them to higher heights within their situations and lives.

As a therapist, I describe myself as open, honest, direct, and grounding. I have a laid-back, humorous style that keeps our sessions down-to-earth. I am goal-oriented, blending a structured Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) framework with a strong emphasis on interpersonal skills, as relationship dynamics always find a way into the therapy room.
I deeply value the therapeutic relationship, focusing on creating a safe space built on mutual trust. I view our bond as the primary foundation for how you can build and navigate healthier relationships in your outside life. My approach is profoundly shaped by my own life experiences. Coming from a background of broken family relationships, I intimately understand what it means to live through past trauma, struggle, and navigate mental health challenges. It is this exact journey of resilience that made me the person I am today and fuels my genuine passion to help others heal.

What happens during the first therapy session?
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.
