Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Kelly. Taking this step is big. I provide a down-to-earth, humorous yet warmly empathetic space to spark real change (sweats and pet cameos are welcomed!). I help clients navigate trauma, stress, depression, parenting (and co-parenting), grief, as well as relationship and addiction challenges. Let's work together to find your path forward.

Is your child remarkably sweet, yet intensely difficult? Let's fill up your toolbox and reduce your stress.

You love your spouse but are the end of your rope. Relationships can be healed through accountability and communication to get back "that loving feeling."

I will help you and your loved ones improve communication to find peace and live a happier existence.

Now is the time to find your peace and finally live a happier existence. Act on the motivation you have today and meet me in session. You can conveniently book your session, to the right of my bio.

If you would like to chat briefly prior to booking, I would be happy to. My number is 973-245-9041 ... If not now, when?

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Newark

Finding the right ADHD therapist in Newark starts with understanding the type of care you need. ADHD can affect focus, organization, time management, and emotional regulation in both adults and children. A licensed therapist — such as a psychologist, licensed clinical social worker, or licensed professional counselor — can help you build strategies for managing day-to-day challenges. If medication management is part of your plan, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can evaluate and prescribe as needed. Many people benefit from working with both a therapist and a prescriber.

With a large number of mental health providers practicing across Newark and the surrounding Essex County area, narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most — whether that's a provider who focuses specifically on ADHD in adults, someone experienced with ADHD in children and teens, or a provider who also addresses co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy in Newark can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with 2129 insurance plans, making it easier to find an ADHD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
