Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Hackensack, NJ covered by Cigna

Hi there! I'm the heart behind Joyful Minds Mental Health Services LLC, where I believe that truly caring for someone means caring for the whole person. I offer a simple, safe, and compassionate space where you are always seen, heard, and respected, not just your symptoms, but your story. Everyone story looks different, whether it's anxiety, depression, or just trying to get back to feeling like yourself, I will work closely with you to create treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Ensuring you receive the support and expert guidance needed to live a fulfilling life.

I have 45 years of experience and specialize in many areas of expertise - addictions, LGBTQ+ mood disorders, trauma, grief, workplace issues to name a few.. I am a total insurance based practice and slide scale if necessary. Therapy is a process of self healing , discovery, growth and positive change. I try to promote a relaxed, open empathic experience with support and feedback. Prior to a first visit , I will do a 15 minute free consultation to see if we are a good fit. If we schedule an appointment, I will find out insurance benefits because I like all financial expectations out of the way so that it does not take time out of the session. Forms and consents are also sent via email prior to the session, so that any " business" needs are out of the way.

Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed and do not know where to turn next? I strive to make the therapy space as comfortable as possible-- a space free of judgment, where you feel heard.

I have provided counseling in a correctional facility, an outpatient psychiatric setting, and to elementary and middle school students in a school setting.

I received my Masters in Social Work from Rutgers University and I also have a Masters in Education from The College of New Jersey.

I am compassionate, structured, and solution-focused. I believe therapy should feel supportive but also productive. I specialize in ADHD and anxiety, and I’m committed to helping you build skills that create real, sustainable change — not just temporary relief.

Great to meet you!
