I work with girls and young women dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, family issues, or just feeling overwhelmed and stuck. I have extensive experience working with teens and young adults, including building and running an adolescent intensive outpatient program. I’m warm, down-to-earth, and active in sessions. I want therapy to feel comfortable and real, while also being a place where we can actually work through what’s going on and help you move forward.

Hello! I’m Priya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey with over a decade of experience supporting adults through overwhelming transitions. I’m truly honored to walk alongside you on this journey. I enjoy working with both adults who may be navigating anxiety, relationship transitions, perinatal and postpartum mental health, infertility, and the emotional complexities of parenting. In addition, I have experience working with college age students navigating the many changes and pressures that come with college and early adulthood. As a parent myself, I can empathize! If you’re feeling stretched thin, uncertain, or not quite like yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can slow down, process what you’re experiencing, and feel more grounded and understood.

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.

You do not have to carry life’s challenges alone. Whether you are navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, relationship challenges, or a major life transition, healing is possible, and you deserve support that meets you where you are. I specialize in helping older adolescents ages 16 to 17 and adults navigate ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My goal is to get to know you, understand your unique experiences, and work alongside you to create a path forward that reflects your unique needs and strengths. I believe meaningful therapy begins with trust, and I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and supported throughout your therapeutic journey. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and provide an inclusive, culturally responsive environment where you can feel comfortable being your authentic self. Every person has a unique story, which is why I tailor therapy to your individual needs rather than taking a one size fits all approach. Using evidence based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, person centered therapy, strengths based therapy, and trauma informed care, we will work together to build practical coping skills, strengthen resilience, and identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we will work toward helping you achieve meaningful, lasting change and a greater sense of confidence, balance, and well being.

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.

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.

I am an empathic, supportive therapist who utilizes therapeutic tools to empower my clients to lead more fulfilling lives. Many of my clients are women who identify as Black or Latino and have a history of childhood trauma or are in difficult relationships with their partners or family. I see clients age 20 to 100. Therapy requires a commitment of time and financial resources. I start out seeing my clients once per week. If you are unable to make the time commitment, I am likely not the best match for your needs. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally.

I have always held a deep affection for the field of Human Services since the day my siblings came to me seeking advice for whatever problems they had. That personal experience fueled my pursuit of a career in counseling and therapy. My credentials include a Master's in Human Services, a Licensed Professional Counselor in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and a National Certified Counselor. For over 40 years, I have been blessed with opportunities to serve as a clinician across diverse settings, including Child Welfare, Criminal Justice, Education, the Corporate Sector, and Military Family Life (all branches). I pride myself in being an instrument that provides a genuine, safe space for clients to embrace who they are while welcoming change, operating with the core belief that “everything starts and ends with the individual". **If my availability does not reflect the day or time that is needed, feel free to message me, as my availability sometimes changes due to client rescheduling.

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.

*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.

Are you having difficulty balancing and navigating through relationships, finances, and/or your career? Do you compare yourself to people who seem to have it all figured out?

Hello, I’m Dustin! Life is difficult; there is no rule book. I am here to support you to help you learn new coping skills and strategies. I will partner with you so that you can move toward a life of enthusiasm, wholeness, and fulfillment. Have you ever felt like the “other?” I specialize in working with adults and adolescents ages 15 and up who have felt like the “other.” At some point almost all of us have felt like we were different. Perhaps you may have experienced anxiety or depression, low self-esteem, are an artist or artistic type, are part of the LGBTQ community, are a person of color, or have felt rejected by your family or religious community. These can be traumatic experiences. I am here to help you navigate through these difficult experiences so that you can shine. My style and personality is nurturing and supportive, yet very direct and truthful. It also has a healthy dash of humor and fun. I use a person-centered, creative, and holistic approach to meet your needs and accomplish your goals. Other modalities incorporated include CBT, DBT, trauma-informed approaches, mindfulness,, and underlining psychodynamic work. As an active singer and songwriter, I am also on my own creative and personal journey. I am ready to share with you what I have learned!

Hello, my name is Laura Savage, and I have had the privilege of working as a Social Worker since 1997.

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with diverse populations across a range of settings, including an adolescent residential treatment facility, a hospital, and a nonprofit organization supporting children affected by cancer and their families. Currently, I am employed within a school district, where I provide school-based counseling services to middle and high school students.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
