Stephanie Altema

I provide compassionate, comprehensive mental health care to individuals across New Jersey, offering both medication management and individual therapy. I hold a Master’s degree in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing from Monmouth University. I am committed to a holistic approach that considers each patient’s mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. By working collaboratively with my patients, I develop personalized treatment plans tailored to their unique needs—empowering them to regain stability, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life.

I support adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating a wide range of mental health concerns, including ADHD, anxiety, and depression. Understanding how isolating and overwhelming these conditions can be, I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for healing and growth.

In my clinical practice, I integrate evidence-based interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) alongside medication management to help patients overcome challenges and strengthen coping skills. I also have experience working with diverse populations.

I recognize the unique barriers these communities may face, and I am dedicated to fostering an inclusive, affirming therapeutic environment that honors each person’s identity and lived experience.
