If you’re reading this, you’re probably carrying something heavy — and you may have been carrying it longer than you should have had to. I’m glad you’re here. I’m an LMFT licensed in both New York and New Jersey, and I work with adults who are navigating some of life’s most emotionally demanding seasons: parenting stress, relationship strain, depression, ADHD, and the kind of high-functioning exhaustion that doesn’t always look like struggle from the outside but absolutely feels like it. My approach is relational at its core. I believe that healing rarely happens in isolation — it happens in connection. Before any technique or homework assignment, I prioritize building a therapeutic relationship where you actually feel safe enough to be honest. That foundation isn’t just good therapy etiquette; it’s what makes everything else possible. From there, I draw on a range of evidence-based frameworks — attachment theory, CBT, DBT, and person-centered approaches — tailoring the work to what you specifically need rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model. Some clients need tools and structure. Others need space to process and be witnessed. Most need both, at different moments. I’ve worked with many people who came to therapy after putting it off for a long time — sometimes years. What kept them away was often fear: fear of judgment, fear of being misunderstood, or simply not knowing what therapy was supposed to feel like. I take that seriously. My goal from the very first session is to help you feel less alone in what you’re facing, and more capable of moving through it. You don’t have to have it figured out before you reach out. That’s what we’re here to do together.

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 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.

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.

*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.

Hi there, I am Rachel a licensed clinical social worker and therapist. Are you struggling to figure out the solution to your internal conflicts, but don’t know where to begin? You don’t like the way things are going, but have fallen into the cultural norm of just pushing through? Do you feel like you’re “just present” or on autopilot? Do you struggle to be intentional? Maybe it’s sleep deprivation from being awake all night with your newborn, the stress of your career is keeping you awake or even the struggle of balancing life, as they say “life keeps life-ing.” Let’s talk about it… My area of expertise includes pregnancy and postpartum support, conception, birth trauma, and loss. In addition, I work with clients experiencing fluctuating self-esteem, imposter syndrome, depression, anxiety and emotions surrounding intergenerational mobility (change in socioeconomic status/income) and generational trauma. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow.

Have you ever been blindsided by life? Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your feelings and emotions? 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? Trust me, we have all been there trying to figure out this beautiful thing called LIFE. It is my passion to assist people navigating through the highs and lows of their personal life. I like to view our sessions as collaborations to help you put things in perspective and hopefully obtain the solutions you seek. My desire is to empower you to live the life that you want to live. I have experience working in various settings such as school, jail/prison, and in the community. Because of my clinical experiences and background, I can provide a non-judgmental approach for you to speak freely about any life situation. Let’s get through life together.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I help individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and evidence-based care. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can feel seen, heard, and empowered to create meaningful change. I work with clients across a variety of life stages and experiences, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress management, and personal growth. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and develop the tools needed to navigate life with greater confidence and resilience. I am especially passionate about working with women who are navigating the many roles and transitions life brings, including relationships, career changes, motherhood, and identity shifts. I enjoy helping women who may be struggling to balance it all or find themselves in an uncertain “I don’t know” season of life. A special focus of my work is supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, the transition to motherhood, and other significant life transitions. I am particularly passionate about helping women navigate birth trauma, NICU experiences, pregnancy complications, identity shifts postpartum, and the emotional challenges that can arise during this season of life. Together, we work to process these experiences, build resilience, reconnect with a sense of self, and create greater balance and fulfillment. I also support couples through transitions such as marriage, pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, and the transition to parenthood, helping partners strengthen communication, deepen connection, and navigate change as a team. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to your unique needs, drawing from evidence-based modalities. I believe therapy is about more than symptom relief. It is about reconnecting with yourself, strengthening relationships, building resilience, and creating a life that feels aligned with your values.

Whether there has been a significant loss, a life transition, relational conflict, or daily stressors, we all need support during difficult times. Sometimes, however, a trained professional can help navigate these challenges and assist in facilitating positive change. We aren’t always able to recognize the underlying cause of our discomfort or find ways to overcome life’s challenges. In a therapeutic setting, we will work together to discover healthier ways for you to deal with life’s struggles, make desired changes, improve relationships, and find inner healing. Seeking therapy can be viewed as an investment in yourself. Improving mental and emotional health is as important as one’s physical health. My role is to provide a safe space and come alongside you on your journey. I work with adolescents and adults and provide individual, couples, and family counseling services. I treat depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma, (PTSD), relationship issues, parenting, behavioral concerns, and many other problems affecting how we feel and operate in the world.

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, and welcome. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in New Jersey with nearly 20 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and move toward healing. I know that reaching out for support isn't always easy, and my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and accepted. Whether you're coping with trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling overwhelmed, you don't have to face it alone. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with survivors of trauma and abuse, helping them process difficult experiences, build resilience, and rediscover their strengths. I've also worked with people facing a wide range of mental health concerns, and one thing I've learned is that every person's story is unique. Because of that, I believe therapy should be personalized, collaborative, and centered around your goals. My approach is compassionate, supportive, and evidence-based. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, I strive to help you better understand yourself, build practical coping skills, and develop the confidence to create meaningful, lasting change. I believe healing happens when people feel safe, empowered, and supported every step of the way. Beyond my work with clients, I am passionate about promoting mental health awareness, reducing stigma, and helping make quality mental health care more accessible in our communities. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your journey. Wherever you are today, my hope is that together we can build on your strengths, overcome life's challenges, and help you create a future that feels healthier, more balanced, and more fulfilling.

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.
