As a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I believe in seeing past the diagnosis of the client, treating each client with respect and kindness. I have over 17 years of experinece working in the medical field but the last 12 years have been in psychiatry. I am dedicated to my clients. I provide telehealth psychiatry and medication management sessions that fit the needs of my clients. My specialties include anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions, providing convenient online mental health care for individuals seeking support from the comfort of their home.
I'm Jessica Saraiva, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults, children, adolescents, and families. I currently serve as a school social worker and maintain a clinical practice providing individual and family counseling.
I hold my LCSW, NJ School Social Worker Certification, and a Certificate in Promoting Child & Adolescent Well-Being from Rutgers University, where I earned my Master of Social Work with a 4.0 GPA.
My experience includes supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges, as well as helping children and adolescents with behavioral difficulties, social-emotional struggles, and school-related issues. I'm also bilingual in Portuguese, allowing me to serve clients in their preferred language.
Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your family, I'm here to help.

Compassionate, Evidence-Based Psychiatric Care Rooted in 25+ Years of Nursing Excellence.
"I believe that mental wellness is a journey that requires a partnership, not just a prescription. My approach is grounded in Relationship-Based Caring, where I prioritize 'being with' my clients to understand their unique life stories. I combine my deep clinical background with a warm, non-judgmental style to create a safe space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.
Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, or life transitions, my goal is to provide holistic care that addresses both your mind and body. I am passionate about cultural sensitivity and enjoy working with individuals from all walks of life, ensuring that your care plan respects your personal values and heritage."
I bring over two decades of experience as a Registered Nurse across various healthcare specialties, which provides me with a comprehensive understanding of how physical health impacts mental well-being. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing (PMHNP) from Purdue University Global and hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Grand Canyon University.
I am here to walk with you on your journey, offering guidance that respects your individuality. If you're ready to take the next step toward a more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out and let's start working together toward the future you envision. I have over fifteen years of experience in the mental health field. I graduated from Lehman College with Summa cum laude honors. I obtained my Master's degree from New York University and my Doctorate in Social Work from Rutgers University.
The essential element of any relationship is trust. I believe positive outcomes result from building an authentic connection between the therapist and the client. Although I have a diverse background, education, and experience, compassion and trust are the most influential components for addressing life's challenges in therapy.
