Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


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.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Jersey City, NJ

Finding couples therapists in Jersey City starts with understanding what you want to work on together. Couples therapy may support partners navigating communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with couples and relationship concerns. Some therapists also note specific couples training, such as the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy, and licensed marriage and family therapists may have additional training in relational care.

In Jersey City, finding one therapist who fits both partners’ needs often comes down to schedule, format, and location. An in-person office near Journal Square, Downtown Jersey City, or a PATH stop may work well for some couples, while virtual sessions can make it easier to coordinate around two calendars. As you compare therapists, check appointment availability, whether they are accepting new clients, and whether they offer a brief phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures couples sessions and how they describes their approach.

Couples therapy in Jersey City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can filter for therapists who match your preferences, review bios, and choose between virtual and in-person care, making it easier to find a therapist who accepts your plan and is ready to see new clients.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
