Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Lakewood, NJ covered by Aetna

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with advanced training in diagnosing and treating a wide range of mental health conditions. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in Psychiatric-Mental Health and have over 15 years of experience working in psychiatry across outpatient, inpatient, and telehealth settings.

I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, with a focus on anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and recovery support.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in New Jersey and New York. I support individuals coping with anxiety, depression, executive functioning challenges, life transitions, and relationship stressors. I am a warm, active listener. I will help you to slow down and gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can piece together what is and is not working for you and identify practical solutions.

Hi, I'm Amanda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of RIVE Counseling. I support women who are feeling emotionally overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but privately struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, relationship stress, or feeling disconnected from themselves. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and start making sense of what you've been carrying.

My name is Khadija Fofana, and I am from West Africa. I have been in the mental health field for over 6 years and I have worked as psychiatric NP for 2+ years. I know I may not heal/solve all of your difficulties but it will be my pleasure to help you regain your stabilization. Remember mental health treatment is a process and it is one that we can achieve together. You don't need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy.

I have been working in private practice for 3.5 years. I work primarily with individuals struggling with anxiety and depression and am especially passionate about helping clients build practical skills (boundary-setting, assertive communication, self-advocacy) so they can learn to advocate for their needs.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience providing compassionate, person-centered therapy to adults navigating anxiety, depression, serious mental illness, trauma, and complex life stressors. My clinical background spans community mental health, supportive housing, and outreach-based services, allowing me to work effectively with individuals facing co-occurring disorders, housing instability, and major life transitions.

I believe therapy works best when clients feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. My approach is collaborative and practical, helping clients identify strengths, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful, sustainable change at their own pace.

As an African American Psychologist, I work with people of all faiths, races and walks of life. As a Believer, I believe in the power of faith and therapy to help towards healing. It will be a blessing for me to help you on your journey.

Welcome! And congratulations on taking an important step towards the life that you want to live. I know that it can be difficult or overwhelming to figure out what therapist might be a good fit for you. I help clients with a wide range of concerns or problems, including depression, anxiety, and adjustment to life transitions, and I specialize in working with clients who have experienced abuse, trauma, or grief. If you feel stuck by things that happened in your past, negative messages about yourself that you’ve internalized, or automatic behavior patterns that are no longer working for you, I can help.
